About Rimba Trek
Dedicated to sustainable forest adventures that protect wildlife, empower communities, and inspire responsible exploration.
Our Story
Rimba Trek began with a simple vision: to create meaningful connections between travelers and Sumatra's remarkable rainforests while protecting the ecosystems and communities that depend on them.
Founded in partnership with local conservation organizations and indigenous communities, we believe that sustainable tourism is the key to forest preservation. Every trek is an opportunity to witness the beauty of nature, learn about critical conservation challenges, and directly support habitat protection and community development.
We work with trained local guides who are not just experts in their environment—they are guardians of their heritage, ensuring that tourism respects cultural traditions and forest integrity.
