The National Parks and Other Wild Places of Indonesia

by Janet Cochrane and Gerald Cubitt

Published 1 June 2000

Designed as a souvenir for the visitor to Indonesia and an introduction to the wildlife and wilderness of this extraordinary country. From teeming reefs and rainforests to tigers, "dragons" and volcanoes, few countries boast such impressive natural diversity as that found across the 13000 islands of Indonesia. This evocative yet practical exploration of Indonesian parks and wilderness areas brings to life the natural splendour of this, the world's largest archipelago. With 320 photographs, all the major parks of the country are described. Specially drawn colour maps show each area's main features, and visitor information panels provide full details on access, accommodation and activities including hiking, rafting, birdwatching, fishing and diving.
