The Sabangau National Park is 600,000 hectares of tropical peat-swamp forest in southern Central Kalimantan, rich in biodiversity and especially noted for supporting the largest world population of the endangered orangutan.
WWF-Indonesia works closely among the local community within and bordering the Sebangau ecosystem to promote sustainable, responsible and innovative livelihoods. Their community based eco tourism initiative, focused in the villages of Baun Bango, Jahanjang and Karuing on the Katingan River, is a mechanism for supplementary and sustainable income generation linked to protection of this area of high conservation importance and as a major global store of carbon.
KTD is now offering tours into this remarkable Park, working closely with these local communities to give visitors an authentic eco tour. Contact us for a full program and enjoy the tour in photos above.
