The Jungle Track is a beautiful track through the forests just outside Banda Aceh. The hike is about 10 km long and take about 4-5 hours, including the pick nick in the forest and a refreshing swim after wards. You will be picked up by guide with car at your hotel in the morning. On the way to the starting point of the track you will ride through villages that have completely been swept away by the Tsunami.
The track starts East of Banda Aceh and goes behind the Gunung Lemoh, The Cow mountain. The peak of this mountain can be seen from Banda Aceh and looks like the neck of cow. The track climbs up to 230m. During te conflict nobody dared to come here, but nowadays people have come back to the forest to cultivate theirland again. Most land is used for agro-forestry. You will see trees with delicious fruit, such as durian, rambutan, papaya, and banana. Melinjau trees also grow here, as well as small pepers. Due to the fruit trees there are still many monkeys and a lot of yellow horn-bill birds. Onseveral places you can havea glimpse on the sea below you , where you can catch a glimpse of islands of pulau bunta,pulau batee, and pulau nasi... To be continue.
Anyway cost is 320000ID one person ( based on two people) including guide and lunch and water.
ok see you at Aceh..
