3-Day Epic Orangutan Jungle Trekking

Deeper into the wild. Experience the ultimate 3-day rainforest adventure in Bukit Lawang.

Your Jungle Adventure Starts Here!

Day 1: Trekking Into the Rainforest & Riverside Camp

After breakfast at 09:00 AM, your licensed guides from Trekking Sumatra Expedition will meet you at your hotel lobby. From there, our group will set off into the lush rainforest for an immersive 6 to 7-hour trek. Along the way, if fortune favors us, we may spot Sumatran Orangutans, Thomas’s leaf monkeys, Gibbons, or long-tailed macaques thriving in their natural habitat.

During the day, we will break for a delicious lunch and enjoy fresh tropical fruits, followed by a short walk to our scenic campsite. There, you can relax, take a refreshing swim in the clean river, and behold the beauty of the surrounding natural landscape. Our team will provide complimentary tea, coffee, and local snacks. At the end of the day, our camp chef will prepare a sumptuous jungle dinner, which includes rice, vegetables, chicken, local chili sauce, tempeh, and more. After dinner, we can play fun interactive group games under the stars before heading to bed for a well-deserved rest.

Day 2: Deep Wildlife Spotting & Bonfire Night

After a hearty breakfast prepared by the Trekking Sumatra Expedition team, we will continue our trek deeper into the jungle. Today is dedicated to spotting exotic wildlife and learning more about the incredible Sumatran orangutans—their behaviors, lifestyle, and unique social skills.

After a fresh jungle lunch, we will continue trekking to our second campsite pitched beautifully at the edge of the Bohorok River. The rest of the afternoon is yours to enjoy: you are free to swim in the river, help the team prepare dinner, or even try your hand at jungle fishing. After a delicious dinner, weather permitting, our team will build a cozy bonfire. Our guides will entertain you with their unique jungle skills, fun games, and local songs before you settle down for another magical night in the forest.

Day 3: Jungle Relaxation & River Tube Rafting

After breakfast, you can choose either to go on a short, relaxed walk around the jungle to spot any last-minute wildlife, or simply relax at the camp to soak in the stunning beauty of the rainforest and swim in the cool, refreshing Bohorok River.

After enjoying our final lunch at the campsite, we will prepare for an exciting departure! We will leave the camp by hopping onto our traditional tube rafts, splashing downstream along the river straight back to the village and directly to your hotel.

Trek the Jungle, Splash Back in Style!
What should I bring for this trek?

Comfortable trekking shoes, water shoes, flip-flops (for the campsite), one or two changes of clothes, a long-sleeved sweater (it can get cool at night), a towel, a large bottle of water, insect repellent, sun cream, swimwear, a torch/flashlight, and toilet paper or wet wipes.

Yes! This 3-day trek goes deeper into the forest, but our professional team from Trekking Sumatra Expedition always paces the trek according to your fitness level. It is perfect for adventurous beginners and families seeking an authentic, deeper connection with Sumatra’s nature.
