Nature tourism fans certainly familiar with the name of Bukit Lawang in North Sumatra. Area which is one of the orangutan rehabilitation center in Sumatra, this is quite common in the exposed and preached everywhere. But not far from Bukit Lawang, is there an alternative tourism is far more natural and less known to tourists yet.

Located in the area Louser Mountain National Park (TNGL) which is one of the largest forest area in Southeast Asia which has achieved the status of protection, bushy Tangkahan offers lush rainforest that can be achieved in the range just two hours from Bukit Lawang, or about five hours by bus or rental car from the city of Medan (approximately 100 kilometers northwest of Medan), then followed with a wooden boat across Kuala Sungai Buluh clear watery. In the dry season, you are biased even without a boat to cross. Simply lift the luggage you on the head, then slowly climb rocks across the river to. Seru!

Flanked by palm oil plantations and TNGL, Tangkahan presence is very important as a buffer zone for national parks, which is the last habitat of hundreds of plant and animal species typical of Sumatra,including the world's largest flower,carrion flower or Raflesia arnoldii,and of course home to elephants,Sumatra tigers and orangutans.

Enjoy the inspirational adventure, through the dense mountain road covered with trees, steep valleys set in verdant rice fields and the river twists and turns of charming. Visit the Sumatra elephants that have been in practice a "ranger" to help the forest rangers on patrol around the area.Explore the dense jungle vegetation and looked forward to the opportunity to meet with the orangutans.Just Forest Tangkahan would leave a "meditation" perfect for body and soul!Interested?
