Bukit Lawang is a charming riverside village located about 86 km northwest of Medan in North Sumatra, Indonesia. It is renowned as home to the largest sanctuary for the critically endangered Sumatran orangutan and serves as the main eastern gateway to Mount Leuser National Park.

Bukit Lawang is a wonderful destination for adventure seekers and nature lovers alike.

The highlight of any visit is JUNGLE TREKKING, where you may encounter wild orangutans, monkeys, and a rich variety of birds in their natural habitat. Orangutans can leap impressive distances through the forest canopy, helping them avoid predators such as tigers, bears, and snakes.
