Before you go to Leuser NP today, you have the unique opportunity to wash and bathe the patrol elephants in the Leuser National Park.

Please note:

The elephants are not circus attractions for tourists – they are the heroes of the jungle and work for nature conservation!

In Indonesia (and throughout Southeast Asia), elephants have been used as livestock for thousands of years, just as horses are in Europe and America. The elephants are bred and spend their weekdays in the jungle, not in cages or enclosures. They have been used for centuries as a means of transport through the jungle to combat illegal loggers and poachers.

The patrol elephants and park rangers in Tangkahan have our utmost respect.

Of course, the elephants deserve good treatment and enjoy being washed and bathed.
