What is the Landscape Like?

Bali has a diverse and beautiful landscape with inland volcanic mountains, rainforests, and sandy beaches. You can see examples of each of these types of landscape within West Bali National Park.

Indonesia

The island center features a prominent mountainous region with several peaks above 2,000 meters (6,600 feet) in elevation, and two well-known active volcanoes, Mount Batur and Mount Agung. Mount Agung is considered a holy mountain and is the highest peak at 3,031 meters (9,944 ft). Tropical rainforests and rivers surround the volcanoes.

The inland regions to the south of the mountains are cultivated plains filled with rice terraces, fruit orchards, vegetable plantations, coffee, cocoa, and other crops. The northern plains are dry and grassy with palm tree clusters. The coastline is a mix of mangrove forests, tall cliffs; white, yellow, and black sand beaches;

A ring of coral reefs surrounds the island hidden beneath the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. There are three small islands to the south: Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan, and Nusa Ceningan. In the northwest corner of West Bali National Park is another small island, Menjangan.
