TREK ITINERARY
DAY 1
Your guide will pick you up from your guesthouse at your preferred time. You’ll start by walking along the river, then ascend through rubber plantations on your way to the Gunung Leuser National Park entrance.
Upon entering the jungle, you may be lucky enough to spot semi-wild Sumatran orangutans. Many are accustomed to human presence, making this trek a fantastic opportunity to observe them swinging through the trees and caring for their young—a memory you’ll cherish forever!
As you continue trekking, enjoy a refreshing snack of tropical fruits before hiking further to stunning viewpoints overlooking the Bohorok River and Gunung Leuser National Park.
After a delicious jungle lunch, trek deeper into the rainforest, spotting other incredible wildlife such as Long-Tailed Macaques, Pig-Tailed Macaques, Thomas Leaf Monkeys, and Monitor Lizards!
Upon reaching your campsite by a waterfall or the riverside, take time to relax with a cup of tea or coffee. Cool off with a swim while your guides prepare a hearty homemade dinner featuring local specialties like curry and rice. After dinner, gather around the campfire, chat, and enjoy the peaceful jungle night.
Enjoy a comfortable night’s sleep under your jungle tent, protected by a bamboo-framed shelter covered with waterproof material. Drift off to the mesmerizing sounds of the rainforest.
DAY 2
Wake up to the serene jungle atmosphere and enjoy a freshly prepared breakfast. After breakfast, continue trekking for 4 to 5 more hours, keeping an eye out for rare wildlife such as jungle turtles, white-handed gibbons, and the elusive Great Argus bird.
After a final jungle lunch, end your adventure with an exciting tubing ride—the “jungle taxi”—floating down the Bohorok River back to Bukit Lawang! Upon arrival, your guide will escort you back to our hotel.
