PANTI RAINFOREST AWAKENING TOUR
The Panti Forest Reserve covers nearly 275 sq km of lowland dipterocarp rainforest is also home to the very loveable White-handed Gibbon, Pig-tailed Macaques and Banded Langurs. An early start ensures that we arrive at the Bunker Trail in time to listen to the rainforest ‘dawn chorus’ made up of songbirds, cicadas, and sometimes the ‘whooping’ calls of the White-handed Gibbons.
At the entrance to the Bunker Trail, we drive slowly along this 14 km long stretch of dirt road on the lookout for birds, primates and other wildlife. Several km into the journey we will stop to trek and explore a quiet jungle trail. Here your nature guide will unravel some of the interesting plants, trees, insects, and small mammals we may chance upon.
Note: To enter Panti Forest requires a permit from the Forestry Department. This tour is available with minimum 5 (five) working days advance booking. Please send a copy of your ID /passport to junglewalladesaru@gmail.com once the reservation is made.
