Day 2
The next morning, you awaken to the sounds of monkeys and birds. Around the campsite, you may see Sumatran monitors, tortoises, and butterflies.

You may also see other rarer species of primates like slow lorises, siamangs and white-handed gibbons.
At lunchtime, your guides prepare a meal while you take a rest. You’ll pass through scenic areas of the national park as you walk to the site.
The second night, we’ll set up your tent next to the Bohorok River, which has a larger jungle swimming pool than that at our first campsite.

Day 4
After breakfast, your guide will adjust the trek distance and time as well as planned activities to your preferences. You can also just choose to relax at the campsite during this time. A light lunch will make you ready for your fun return by jungle taxi to your hotel in Bukit Lawang.
