About Ulu Temburong National Park

Ulu Temburong National Park is Brunei's premier conservation area, celebrated for its lush primary rainforest and diverse ecosystems. This park offers visitors an unparalleled glimpse into one of the world's oldest and most pristine rainforests.

Wilderness Landscape & Natural Heritage

Located in the dense heart of Borneo, Ulu Temburong National Park spans over 50,000 acres of unspoiled primary rainforest. It serves as a sanctuary for diverse plant and animal species, some of which are endemic to Borneo. Visitors enter the park through longboat rides that traverse the winding rivers, setting the stage for an immersive jungle experience. Within the park, trails lead to the canopy walkways that offer spectacular views and opportunities for bird watching. The ecological tapestry here includes towering dipterocarp trees, exotic orchids, and various animal species like the hornbill and the Bornean gibbon. Ulu Temburong is also dotted with small waterfalls and natural pools for a refreshing escape. As Brunei’s first national park, established to prioritize conservation, it highlights sustainable tourism and education regarding rainforest preservation.
