8-18 Day Aceh to Norht Sumatera ( Treks And Tours )

Join us for a spectacular trek across the jungle border between Aceh and North Sumatra. View stunning scenery off the tourist trail and feel a true sense of achievement on completing our most physically challenging expedition so far. Ascending a mountain on day one is just the beginning of this adventure. Experience true remoteness and abandonment in beautiful primary rainforest as far as the eye can see. Leave all cares and worries behind you and absorb nature at its purest. Our highly experienced guides are alert to the tracks and signs of wildlife. You may be lucky enough to see the Sumatran Elephant in the wild as well as wild orangutans, gibbons, various monkeys, wild pig and deer regularly spotted in this region. We can extend the number of days spent on the trek to build in time for relaxing and soaking in the jungle tranquillity.

As well as a sense of adventure, an average to high level of physical fitness is required for this expedition. Conditions can be hot and at times exhausting in a tropical, rainforest climate. The terrain is sometimes steep and deeply forested. This is not an expedition for the faint hearted or those looking for jungle luxury. We camp together every night under the same tent and you will be washing in the river to keep clean. Don't expect to return with any clean clothes! You might find it useful to do a short 1 day practice trek before you embark on this expedition. Please allow extra days if you wish us to organise a practice trek. Contact us for more information.
