Wild sumatra ADVENTURE
3 – 7 Days / Medium to Advanced Fitness
Our signature wild expedition is perfect for intrepid adventurers who want to go beyond the usual tourist trails. These treks are wild, which means each one is unique and what wildlife you’ll see depends on conditions and the group.
We’ll teach you our traditional ways to gather food, track animals and build shelter. It’s not the same as the simple trek to see orangutans, it’s about learning how to survive in the vast Sumatran jungle.
