Longer treks
Go Deeper into the Jungle

Longer treks are for people who want a real adventure, want to push physical boundaries and want to experience the jungle fully. Go deeper in the jungle and immerse yourself with nature. Trek up and down mountainous lush tropical rainforests, passing through beautifully clean rivers and waterfalls.
Learn about the jungle ecosystem, the wildlife and the many medicinal plants that local people still use today. Guests will get a better chance of seeing White-handed Gibbons, Siamang Gibbons, maybe Sunbears or a Slow Loris, or if you are really lucky Elephants.
