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.
This trek was the most amazing experience of my life. The people were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, and the wildlife and terrain is breath-taking and has left me with so many wonderful memories and friendships. It has been a life changing experience.

Everyone from guides to leaders were amazing and made sure that we were safe and comfortable. Nothing was too much effort. This is my 4th challenge and by far the most amazing.
