or known also as Bohorok is for the adventurous, accessible through Sumatra’s
inland wilderness, crossing rivers and going over steep hills.
The area lies
south of the Mount Leuser National Park, a rehabilitation center for Orang
Utans in Bahorok, which was inaugurated in 1973. Orangutans living here are of
Sumatra and Kalimantan origin. Seeing the orangutans is a magical experience.
In Bukit Lawang, you can usually see them near the rehabilitation centre and at
the feeding platform during the morning and afternoon feeding sessions. In
Ketambe, you can go to 1-7 days treks into the jungle. The best experience is
an encounter in the jungle where there are many semi-wild and wild animals.
The
wild orangutan can be difficult to spot unless you go deep into the jungle.
There are also white and black gibbons that make an amazing noise calling out
to each other, and Thomas Leaf monkeys. If you are lucky, you may be able to
see hornbills, toucans, moon snakes, monitor lizards.
