17 Photos To Make You Travel to Bukit Lawang
I’ve always wanted to get to Sumatra and see the Orangutans and as it turns out, Bukit Lawang is the perfect place to do just that.
North Sumatra is a place that a lot of people choose to skip on their trip to Indonesia, favouring instead the classic backpacking spots of Bali, Lombok (i.e. the Gili Islands – although Lombok is also a lot more than too) and the slightly more adventurous travellers usually also include either Java or Komodo too.
However, just a short flight away is the relatively untravelled island of Sumatra. Through this blog and my YouTube channel, I hope that I can convince some of you to include Sumatra on your Indonesian itinerary!

After seeing these photos, I hope I have at least put the idea of visiting Bukit Lawang into your head. Call it… Orangutanception.
Seriously though, it was one of my favourite trips so far and if you do decide to visit North Sumatra then make sure to make Bukit Lawang part of your travel itinerary – you won’t regret it!
