About Bali Bird Park#
Bali Bird Park is a commercial aviary and conservation-oriented park in Gianyar Regency on the island of Bali, Indonesia. The park displays a broad collection of Indonesian and international bird species across landscaped, walk-through aviaries and themed enclosures.
Exhibits include large free-flight aviaries, an Indonesian rainforest section and daily bird demonstrations in an open arena; the site hosts more than 1,000 individual birds from around 250 species. The park operates captive-breeding and conservation programs and offers close-up encounters, feeding sessions and educational displays.

Exploring Bali Bird Park & Rimba Reptile Park#
A firm favourite with families and nature lovers, Bali Bird Park makes a welcome change from temple-hopping. Its collection ranges across Indonesia and far beyond, with many birds housed in aviaries and others, such as demoiselle cranes, left to roam free. The park is divided into geographical regions that hint at the birds’ original habitats: the Africa and Americas sections near the entrance greet visitors with colourful cockatoos and macaws, while the largest enclosure, the walk-through Papua Aviary, is filled with thick tropical vegetation. Smaller aviaries house lories, though most of the birds fly freely.
Next door, the Rimba Reptile Park is home to a large collection of snakes, lizards and other reptiles, more than 48 species in all, including Californian king snakes, taipans, sungazers and the Madagascar tree boa. A single ticket admits visitors to both parks, making them an easy day out together.
