Baluran National Park

Baluran National Park, located in East Java—not Bali—Indonesia, is often called the "Little Africa of Java" due to its striking savanna landscapes and rich biodiversity. Here’s what to expect:

​

• Expansive Savanna: The Bekol Savanna is the park’s most iconic feature, resembling African grasslands and providing open views for wildlife spotting.
• Diverse Wildlife: The park is home to Javanese wild cattle (banteng), deer, water buffalo, monkeys, and a variety of bird species, making it a haven for animal lovers and birdwatchers.
• Scenic Backdrop: Mount Baluran, an extinct volcano, dominates the landscape and offers dramatic scenery throughout the park.
• Varied Ecosystems: In addition to savanna, visitors can explore mangrove forests, lowland forests, and coastal areas, each supporting unique flora and fauna.
• Adventure Activities: Opportunities for safari drives, trekking, and photography abound, with observation towers and trails enhancing the experience.

Baluran National Park is a must-visit for those seeking a blend of adventure, wildlife, and natural beauty in Indonesia.
