There are 622 kilometres of railway in Burkina Faso, of which 517 km run from Ouagadougou to Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire; and 105 km from Ouagadougou to Kaya. All the railways in the country are of the narrow 1,000 mm (3 ft 3+³⁄₈ in) metre gauge. Only one adjacent country is connected to Burkina Faso by rail, Côte d'Ivoire, a country in which the same one-metre gauge is employed, which provides this landlocked country access to the sea.
