TEMBURONG , BRUNEI

 

 

 

Ulu Temburong National Park in Temburong district, BruneiUlu Temburong National Park occupies approximately 50,000 hectares of the Batu Apoi Forest Reserve. The park's locality and steep, swampy terrain have limited human impact on the area and helped preserve its rich biodiversity.

 

Established forest trails through the park include seven kilometers of wooden walkways which protect ground Photo: Ulu Temburong National Park          vegetation and help prevent erosion. A canopy walkway affords visitors an opportunity to observe the rainforest's surprisingly diverse treetop ecosystems. In addition, a series of treehouses some 20 meters above the ground, and linked by hanging bridges, provides excellent observation points at this Ulu Temburong Park.

 

Ulu Temburong Park Headquarters Information Centre, including staff quarters and a surau (prayer hall), is located at the confluence of the Temburong and Belalong Rivers. Access to the park is by temuai or longboat, and visitor accommodation within the park consists of some seven guest houses and three well-equipped campsites.
