Visit Orangutan and enjoy jungle trekking in Bukit Lawang and North Sumatra.
North Sumatra is popular with orangutans. This location is Bukit Lawang. We can visit this place if you have enough power and fitness to do jungle trekking. Jungle trekking takes about 4-5 hours to see the orangutans. Most travellers can find and see them in the jungle.
Orangutans are wild animals whose DNA is almost the same as humans. To visit them, we have to follow some goverment rules to enter the jungle, such as a permit, using a local ranger and wearing good shoes and clothes. Either you can bring your mosquito cream.
Bukit Lawang is about 3 hours from Medan city. We recommend you stay there for 1 or 2 night, other option after jungle trekking is to see orangutan either you can do other activities, swim in the river, becak tour, etc.
