Day 1
After breakfast at 9:00 am our
guides from Orangutan Jungle Trekking will greet you at the hotel where you
are staying. After that the tour group will set off into the jungle for roughly
a 6 to 7 hour trek. During the trip, if we are lucky, we may see Orangutans,
Thomas leaf monkey, Gibbons, or long-tailed Macaque. During the day we will
break for lunch and eat tropical fruits, following by a short walk to our
campsite location. There you can do activities like bathing in the river and
behold the beauty of the natural landscape which will surround you. Our team
will provide some complementary tea, coffee and snacks. At the end of the day
our team will prepare a delicious dinner which can vary but may include rice,
vegetables, chicken, chili sauce, tempeh and more. After dinner we can choose
to play a fun interactive group game before going to bed for a well needed
rest.
Day 2
After breakfast provided by team
Orangutan Jungle Trekking we will be walking into the jungle. During the
journey we will learn about the plants of the forests that can be used as
herbal medicine. If we are lucky we may see some interesting animals such as;
the Endangered Orangutan, White-hundred gibbon, snakes, monkeys, monitor
lizards, and many other exotic wildlife unique to the jungle. The jungle trek
is typically a 4-5 hour walk. During the
day our team will prepare a lunch that includes locally sourced fresh fruit.
After Lunch we will begin our trek to return to Bukit Lawang. Here we have two
options; to return on foot, or, with a traditional tube raft which we can ride
down the river for an additional fee. You may choose either to walk back to
bukit lawang or travel back with tube rafting down the river.
