And with Sumatra Cheeky Monkeys, an ethical jungle trekking company, you’re guaranteed a safe and eco-friendly journey through the heart of the jungle.
Why Choose Bukit Lawang for Jungle Trekking?
Bukit Lawang is a gateway to one of the most biodiverse regions on Earth—Gunung Leuser National Park. This pristine rainforest is home to a wide variety of wildlife, from the elusive Sumatran orangutans to Thomas Leaf monkeys, gibbons, and a myriad of birds, reptiles, and plants. If you want to experience the magic of nature in its rawest form, there’s no better place.
Group Treks for Solo Travellers: Adventure and Affordability
At Sumatra Cheeky Monkeys, we know how rewarding solo travel can be—but we also understand the importance of sharing the experience (and keeping costs down). That’s why we offer group treks for solo travelers, allowing you to join forces with other like-minded explorers. Not only will you save on costs, but you’ll also make new friends along the way!
Our group sizes are kept small—just 6 people max—so you can still enjoy an intimate and authentic trekking experience. However, it’s important to note that when trekking in a group, there may be some compromise. The pace and preferences of fellow trekkers may not always align with your own, but rest assured, we do our best to match people based on physical ability and interest to ensure a harmonious experience.
