Bali Barat National Park
Bali Barat National Park lies at the western side of Bali and is 77000 ha some 10% of Balis total land area. The park is the last refuge of one of the most endangered birds of the world: the Bali Starling. Bali Barat is mountainous and consists of primary monsoon forest mangrove forest savannah and coral islands. The peninsular Prapat Agung with its extensive web of footpaths is the most accessible part of the park. Here at Tegal Bunder you will find the Bali Starling Recovery Project where the PHPA is trying to reintroduce Bali Starlings. Pulau Menjangan an island north of the mainland part of the park is an excellent place to explore the coral reefs.
