Why Choose This Family Trek

It’s not just about trekking, but about creating unforgettable family memories while exploring nature, learning jungle secrets, and enjoying the adventure as a team.
What to Expect
Your journey begins in Bukit Lawang, where your guide will lead you into the rainforest. The trekking pace is relaxed, with plenty of breaks for rest, snacks, and play. Along the way, you may spot wild orangutans swinging in the canopy, the unique Thomas leaf monkey with its mohawk hairstyle, long-tailed macaques, black gibbons, or colorful tropical birds.
Guides will share jungle stories, show edible plants, explain traditional uses of herbs, and even teach children simple survival skills like how to make jungle toys from leaves. Lunch will be served picnic-style in the forest, complete with fresh tropical fruits.
In the late afternoon, you will arrive at a beautiful riverside campsite. Here, kids can enjoy swimming or playing in the river while the guides prepare dinner. The evening is magical: enjoy a jungle feast, sit around a campfire, and listen to jungle tales under the stars before falling asleep in a tent by the river.
On the second day, after a hearty jungle breakfast, you’ll take a short walk to explore more of the forest. Finally, the adventure ends with an exciting tubing ride down the Bohorok River, floating back to Bukit Lawang — a safe and fun highlight for families and children.
