3 DAYS/2 NIGHTS SATWA ECOLODGE TOUR AROUND THE WAY KAMBAS NATIONAL PARK
SATWA SUMATRA ECOLODGE
The Satwa Sumatra Elephant Ecolodge is set in a lush tropical walled garden just 500 meters from the entrance of Way Kambas National Park, in Sumatra, Indonesia, the home to rare and endangered Sumatran Elephants, Rhinos and Tigers. Our spacious cottages offer the perfect base to explore the park.
A highlight is a trip to the Elephant Respond Unit in the Park to see the elephants bathing, meet the young elephants and if you want you can take an elephant trek with a mahout.
Another highlight is either a day or half day trip upriver through the National park. The half day takes you upstream and is fabulous for bird watching and seeing the siamang gibbons on dusk. There are also guided night and early morning walks.
