The river in the north goes all the way to the coast, around a hundred kilometers north of Mombasa. The [[Tsavo Highway]], also known as A23, links the towns of [[Voi]] and [[Wikipedia:Taveta|Taveta]], as well as towns such as [[Arusha]] beyond the [[United Republic of Tanzania|Tanzanian]] border. There are also checkpoints such as [[Checkpoint 4]] and [[Checkpoint 8]] along the highway. The highway terminates at the town of Voi, at the [[Nairobi Road|Nairobi-Mombasa highway]]. The [[Global Water Campaign]]'s [[GWC Trans-African Pipelines]] travel along the highway, carrying water to the entire continent.

Tsavo also housed a large national park, the largest nature reserve east of [[Nairobi]].<ref>''[[Halo Waypoint]], [[Uplift Nature Reserve|Uplift Reserve]] video''</ref> | ||
