A Rainforest Experience With a Lasting Impact

Experience the rainforest in a more meaningful way.

This full-day eco-adventure combines a hands-on tree-planting experience with an unforgettable orangutan trek through the tropical rainforest of Gunung Leuser National Park.

Plant your own native tree, learn about rainforest restoration, explore one of Sumatra’s most important wildlife habitats, and discover how responsible tourism can help protect the forest for future generations.

Every tree planted is a small action with a lasting impact.
Rainforest Restoration

From a Small Seedling to a Living Rainforest

Every restored forest begins with careful preparation, local knowledge, and a commitment to the future.

Before native trees are planted, local team members prepare and care for young seedlings until they are strong enough for the rainforest environment.

During your experience, you will learn how native trees are selected, why different species are important, and how reforestation creates healthier habitat for orangutans and other wildlife.
