The land is green in the south, with forests and fruit trees, and desert in the north. Most of central Burkina Faso lies on a savanna plateau, 198-305 meters (650-1,000 ft.) above sea level, with fields, brush, and scattered trees. Burkina Faso's game preservesthe most important of which are Arly, Nazinga, and W National Parkcontain lionss elephants hippopotamus monkeys , warthogs, and antelopes. Tourism is not well developed. Annual rainfall varies from about 100 centimeters (40 in.) in the south to less than 25 centimeters (10 in.) in the extreme north and northeast, where hot desert winds accentuate the dryness of the region. Burkina Faso has three distinct seasons : warm and dry (November-March), hot and dry (March-May), and hot and wet (June-October). Rivers are not navigable. Location: Western Africa , north of Ghana Geographic coordinates: 13°00' N, 2°00' W
