cultural note: One half of the vast Tsavo ecosystem (Kenya's largest) — famous for red-dust 'red elephants', big herds and open plains. Highlights: the Aruba Dam (wildlife-rich), Mudanda Rock (a natural water-catchment where animals gather) and the Yatta Plateau. Easily reached off the Nairobi-Mombasa road/SGR.
