Go meet the locals!
Experience a mix of fun and excitement in in a gorge in the middle of nowhere in Sumatra. Enjoy a lush day with a great selection of fun slides, jumps, and rappels while canyoning in Sumatra. Our guides will take you safely through the canyon.
Itinerary
Our driver will pick you up at 8am your accommodation in Bukit Lawang. The drive takes around 2h to the basecamp. The guides will welcome you and provide you with life jackets. You have the opportunity to use the bathrom or change to swimming clothes.
As you will move through water, you don’t bring anything on the canyoning itself. Just your swimming clothes and shoes/sandals/flips flops. The guides can put your phone or camera in the drybag or you bring your own dry bag.
You will then walk ca. 15 mins down to the river to start your canyoning in Sumatra. Take a dip here, walk upstream, enjoy a coffee from the small shop (you can pay later) or indulge in the great jungle views. After 30 mins the guides will start walking downstream. They will show you the way to go, where to step and when to jump. Only small jumps are mandatory, higher jumps are optional. The tour takes around 3-4h.
When you finish the canyoning in Sumatra, you walk ca. 15 mins back to the car park. Our driver wil bring you to a local restaurant for lunch (included). Finish lunch and enjoy your way back to Bukit Lawang.

General fitness is mandatory for this trip. It includes a lot of climbing over big rocks, walking or swimming through water and holding on to things. There is no previous canyoning experience required though.

Due to rainfall, trees may fall into the canyon, making some passages impassable. You can then take a diversion around the top. This cannot be avoided and may result in the tour only taking 1 hour.
