The challenge

  • Trek and camp in the beautiful Gunung Leuser National Park
  • Fall asleep to the sounds of the rainforest
  • Spot wildlife as it swings through the trees
  • Learn about the forest and nature's supermarket
  • Relax in the eco-lodge amongst the trees

This challenge takes place in the mountainous Gunung Leuser National Park, one of the only places in the world where you can still see Sumatran orang-utans in the wild. Gibbons, elephants, hornbills, Thomas leaf monkeys, macaques, sun bears and the elusive Sumatran tiger are just a handful of the many species found in this unique World Heritage ecosystem.

Be challenged both physically and mentally as you push yourself completely out of your comfort zone on this 5 Day trek in the Sumatran Jungle. Camp under the jungle canopy to the sound of the river closeby. Test your body in a humid and challenging environment with many steep ascents and descents and river crossings while carrying your own kit throughout. 

Please Note: It will be necessary to descend with the aid of a rope at some points throughout the week. You should be comfortable to carry at least 10kg of weight in your day pack and have a good level of upper body strength.
