Geography of Burkina Faso

The Burkina Faso is surrounded by the Mali in north and the west, by the Niger in the North-East, South-east by the Bénin and in the South by the Togo, the Ghana and the Ivory Coast. It thus does not have an outlet on the sea. It is a very flat country, since the culminating point is the Tenakourou to 747 m in the west.

Having a tropical climate, the country has only two seasons, one season dry and a rain season. The country is a range of what one can find in Africa: The northern point is desert, with the the Sahel and is transformed gradually into Savane when one goes towards the south. One finds even forests there (area of Sore-Dioulasso and Banfora like worms Gaoua and the borders ivoiro-Ghanaians).
