Initiated in 1997 and set within the misty hinterlands of Ubud, the Mason Elephant Park was created in response to the devastating situation in Sumatra where rampant deforestation and poaching have dwindled the native elephant population. Our multi-award-winning park is Bali’s only dedicated elephant rescue facility and is home to Bali’s largest herd of critically-endangered Sumatran elephants, 6 of which were naturally born here. The park provides guests with the rare opportunity to learn and interact with these gentle giants while giving the healthy herd a comfortable and safe environment to call home.
