Bali Birding Tour National Park

The hike through the stunning landscape of the National Park not only offered great views, but also interesting information about the local flora and fauna. 🐦🌺 It was a relaxing and enriching experience that I would recommend to anyone.🍀🤙 I'm already planning my next visit!🪽💯

This is the entrance to the national park, the entrance fee is 200,000, right at the entrance will be bunch of people telling you that is mandatory to enter with a guide and try to charge you 1 million, IT IS NOT TRUE. Just tell them NO, tell them you have been advertise and you do not require a guide. The white sand beach is 5 km from the entrance, first 4 km are in good condition, last km is in bad shape but you can still do it being careful. The beach is very nice and you will see monkeys on the road to get there. If you are looking for deer, you will find them on the other side of the national park, where the Mendanjan hotel is, and they will let you in that part of the park if you go to eat or have a coffe to the Octagon restaurant.

I wish I had read the reviews before entering the park!!! At the enterence the guides meet you with lots of stories "how cool is the park". Is it true? Personally, I do not think so: - the park is not different from any Bali road; - did we saw all the described animals? No. Black monkeys (The Celebes crested macaque - Macaca nigra). As per guide - National park is the only place where black monkeys live. However, you do not know that the monkeys are shy till you enter the park with the guide. You could see them on a distance, sometimes with a zoom. Is it the only place on Bali where Macaca nigra lives - I do not think so. As per guide the babies monkey colour is orange. Did we see it? Yes, but I could not find any proof of it in Google. Our friend says: " Knowing Balinese - it could be fake". At the beginning of our tour the guide was helping us to see the monkey and was happy as a baby when found a one on the distance of a few metres. However, when we biked back, guide went really fast and totally skipped the whole monkey family just all on one tree next to the road. - deers & wild pigs - we saw one or two and again the guide was saying to us " how lucky we are". This is a b...sh..t. In my life I saw massive wild deer & pig families. You could see all this animals in a wils life if you just go tramping - native birds - they could be in the park, but we saw none At the beginning of the track there is good surface road, but as soon as it ends real park starts: dusty road, lots of rubbish on the road and beaches etc. Again, the guid said - the park is cleaned regularly. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like it is ☹️☹️☹️☹️ Entrance Fee. Guids cheat at the entrance. The official price for foreigners is 200k ( I wish I know earlier) but on entrance trying to make you fool and ask to pay 1.15 million. We paid 600k for 2 at the end. They make sure to hire a guide. They don't want to let you in without a guide. But as the result- there is no need for a guide

They cheat at the entrance. The official price for foreigners is 200k but on entrance trying to make you fool and ask to pay 1.15 million. They make sure to hire a guide. They don't want to let you in without a this “guide”, although nothing is said about this in the rules. I had to find the chief officer who manages the park and get there through him at the official price. Don't let the scammers cash in, it's illegal.

This is a vast area of national conservation park. Also contain some Hindu temple inside at the very end of the small road. There's also beaches here, with soft white sands and beautiful view, where you could see Java island across the sea, seems not so far from where you stand. Beware of the monkey which tend to steal your belongings if you aren't alert. So far, I've enjoyed the journey here, maybe will come here again next time
