AWESOME TANGKAHAN THE ELEPHANT CAMP & TOUR : AWESOME TANGKAHAN THE ELEPHANT CAMP & TOUR

Tangkahan is a small village on the border of Gunung Leuser National Park located in North Sumatra. It is situated at the junction of 2 rivers, the Buluh River and the Batang River. Tangkahan specialises in eco-tourism activities like jungle trekking and Elephant trekking.

There are some Elephants at Tangkahan which are available for jungle trekking though their primary role is to patrol and protect the National Park from illegal activities like animal poaching and illegal logging. These elephants were original troublesome elephants that were involved in destroying fields and houses in surrounding villages. Now they serve to protect not only the villages but other elephants in the wild.

On this opportunity kindly see below our package for Tangkahan Elephant Tour. This tour starts from Medan which is 5 hours drive to reach Tangkahan. When you arrive at Tangkahan you go down to the river. There is now a suspension bridge to cross the river so there is no need to cross the river on this old river boat. From the visitor centre walk down the river to your left and you will find the suspension bridge. You cross over the suspension bridge to get some lodges there.
