Tanjung Puting National Park

A national park in the Indonesian Borneo province of Central Kalimantan, Tanjung Puting is most visited for its wild orangutan population and the network of research and rehabilitation stations established by primatologist Biruté Galdikas. Traditional wooden klotok river boats navigate the blackwater rivers and streams threading through lowland rainforest, dipterocarp forest, and peat swamp to reach feeding platforms where habituated orangutans gather each morning. Proboscis monkeys, pygmy elephants, and sun bears are also found within the park.
