About this experience
This is Bukit Lawang's most legendary adventure. Trek deep into Gunung Leuser National Park, spot orangutans and hornbills, and make camp by a jungle river. Your guides cook a traditional Indonesian dinner over an open fire. Sleep in simple jungle shelters, wake to gibbon calls, and on day two, ride the Jungle Taxi (rubber tubes) through the Bohorok River rapids all the way back to the village. This is the real thing.
