A once in a lifetime experience trekking with Orangutans | Bukit Lawang (Indonesia Ep 4)

Bukit Lawang is the gateway to trekking with Orangutans in Sumatra, and Sumatra is one of only two places in the world you can see Orangutans in the wild. We were not going to miss out, and on arriving in Bukit Lawang we booked a three day two night trek into the Gunung Leuser National Park. The trekking was awesome, although a bit of rain and some steep trails made it hard work in places. Our wildlife encounters included nine Orangutans, two species of monkey, lots of birds, monitor lizards, and a snake. The accommodation was rustic but the food was great. The trekking finished with a beautiful waterfall for a swim and then rafting out of the jungle back to Bukit Lawang. The bat cave was an interesting way to finish our time in Bukit Lawang. A Bukit Lawang orangutan trek is an amazing 'bucket-list' experience. Awesome!
