Bukit Barisan Selatan National
Park
General
 This
national park comprises the southern part (365.000
ha.) of the Bukit Barisan Mountains. In the park
several sorts of forest ecosystems occur. Seventy
percent of the park is lowland rainforest. Smaller
areas consist of beach forest, freshwater swamp
forest, Nypa forest and hill and mountain forest.
You'll also find lakes and swampy areas which are
important for waterfowl. Several species of sea
turtle lie their eggs on the beaches.
Access
There is hardly any touristic development in the
park. Howerver, you can visit the park but this
will take some perseverance. The advantage is that
there are little other tourists to be found.
There are four possibilities to enter the park.
Permits are available from the PHPA office in Kota
Agung. For Liwa you can get a permit in the rayon
office in Liwa.
 Kubu
Perahu Kubu Perahu is attainable from Bandar Lampung
(station Rajabasa). Take a bus with destination
Liwa or Krui. Kubu Perahu lies 6km from Liwa, on
teh road to Krui. Suwoh A more difficult access
because a part of the road to the park is not metalled.
For Suwoh take a bus from Bandar Lampung (station
Rajabasa) to Kota Agung. From Kota Agung minibuses
go to Sedaya. From Sedaya take an ojek (motorcycle)
to Suwoh. This trip is only possible during the
dry season. Sukaraja Atas Sukaraja Atas is as difficult
to reach as Suwoh. For Sukaraja travel the same
