      Baluran National Park is situated at the north-eastern extremity of Java, close to the islands of Bali and Madura. The park is bordered by the Madura Strait to the north, the Bali Strait to the east, the River Bajulmati (Wonorejo Village) to the west, and the Klokoran River (Sumberanyar Village) to the south. At the center of this large park, stands the extinct Baluran Volcano, watching over its pristine environment. People said that Baluran is so much like Africa.

    Covering 250 sq km, the park forms part of the district of Situbondo, in the province of East Java, comprising lowland forests, mangrove forests, and 40% swathes of fertile savannahs, they provide abundant food for the animals. Here also are many typical Java trees like the Java tamarind and the pecan nut trees. When you visit Baluran during the rainy season, you will see ample water holes, but during this time the Banteng and the wild bulls prefer to wander in the forests, although other animals like peacocks, mouse deer, and wild fowl do come out and can still be observed.
