Trekking in the Ketambe forest for three days and two nights / 3D-2N
We recommend this trekking option for guests with an average fitness level as you will need to be physically fit for the three days of climbing and descending the hills.
A particular highlight was two nights at two different peaceful tourist spots in the jungle.
Compared to our Tour 3, a 2 day/1 night jungle trekking, this trip takes you deeper into the rainforest, you will hike more, see more, learn more and increase your knowledge of the Sumatran rainforest and its biodiversity Gunung Leuser Ecosystem.
Keep your eyes and ears open to the wonders of the jungle, the chances of seeing wildlife are higher too!
Your experienced guide will explain many amazing facts about the Sumatran ketambe rainforest and its wild animals.
