You will continue your trek through the rainforest going deeper into the jungle while having a bigger chance to see wildlife there. While hiking up and down the hills heading to the west of the national park your guide will point out different creatures and plant species while giving lots of explanations about the rainforest and its biodiversity. In the afternoon around 4 pm, You will arrive at the charming Jambur Batu River next to a big waterfall where you will stay overnight at your campsite. now you can swim and relax and enjoy afternoon coffee and tea. our team will prepare your jungle dinner of local Indonesian food over an open campfire. tents, air-mattress, pillows and sleeping bags will make your jungle sleep comfortably.
