Eco - Treks
Treking near Landak River, located just 4km from Bukit Lawang. The hidden forests sit beside the river and overlook the Leuser National Park. Scarce of tourists, peaceful and diverse. Eco-Trekking here is a real experience. A great place to explore.
Live the Adventure
Off the Beaten Treks
There are several villages bordering the Leuser National Park that should be explored, each offering something different. Elephants & waterfalls at Tangkahan or the famous Rafflesia flower and Gibbons at Batu Katak or amazing waterfalls near Pamah Semilir
