The Mara is the most popular game park in Kenya. Abounding
with wildlife and taking in a vast slab of the Serengeti,
this 320-sq-km reserve is anything but plain.The western
border of the park is the spectacular Esoit Olooloo (Siria)
Escarpment and it's at the edge of the park that the concentrations
of game are the highest. Lions are found in large prides
everywhere and it's not unusual to see them hunting. Elephants,
buffalos, zebras and hippos also exist in large numbers.
A reserve rather than a national park (the Maasai people
are allowed to graze and hunt animals here), the Mara includes
a Maasai village that's open to tourists.
