Tanjung Puting National Park, in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia, is a premier place for Orangutan spotting in their natural habitats in Borneo. The major attraction in Tanjung Puting is a traditional Klotok houseboat cruise along the Sekonyer River, which forms the main route for visitors to access this national park in Kalimantan, Indonesia. The journey normally takes between 2-3 days, giving you a chance to visit other Orangutan feeding spots, including Tanjung Harapan, Pondok Tanggui, and Camp Leakey. Other animals that you would be able to see are proboscis, kingfishers, hornbills, and other animals in their natural habitats.
