board your boat, called a Kelotok, and meet your crew. Once boarded

tour and a chance to buy traditional crafts from the local Dayak people.
Leave Tanjung Harapan village for the first chance to meet Orangutan
at the Tanjung Harapan rehabilitation camp. After meeting staff from
the camp and seeing Orangutan being prepared for eventual release
we set off up the Seikonyer River and into the Leakey River to see
Proboscis monkeys, Macaques, crocodiles, lizards and numerous bird
species, including the magnificent Horn Bill. The night will be spent
aboard your Klotok, sleeping on a bed set up by your crew with a mosquito
net up on the top deck.
Day four:
Pondok Tanggui - Camp Leakey - Croc Lake.
After waking to the sounds of the jungle animals you will trek to
see the morning viewing area where you can see orphaned Orangutan
and maybe even some semi- wild Orangutan. After the morning feeding
your Klotok sails further up the Leakey River towards camp Leakey
where you will have a chance to visit the information centre to learn
about the Orangutan as well as the other animals and plants of the
Tanjung Putting National Park. From the visitors centre you will be
led by a local Ranger and your guide on a trek through the Jungle
around camp Leakey. Here you will have a chance to see some of the
diverse range of wildlife that inhabits the area. It is possible to
sometime see Kosasih, the King Orangutan; he is about fifty years
old and weighs over 100 kilograms. After the trek you will go back
to the boat for Lunch and a rest. After lunch you will be led to a
remote rainforest feeding station for the afternoon feeding. You will
leave camp Leakey in the late afternoon to Croc Lake where we will
spend the night.

last trek through the jungle around camp Leaky or you may like to
re-visit one of the other places on your return trip to Kumai, Which
one will depend on what you decide? Once back in Kumai you will be
transferred back to the hotel in Pangkalan bun. |
