Access to Kayan Mentarang
National Park
Kayan Mentarang National Park is very remote, good preperation in
advance to bring a visit to this part as the heart of Borneo is
recommended, some public flights on the Samarinda-Long Ampung and
Tarakan-Long Bawan
routes, or by public riverboats following the Tarakan-Tanjung
Selor-Long Pujungan route bring you in to the Kayan Mentarang National
Park. To access the southern part of the Park,
visitors can fly from Samarinda or Malinau to Long Ampung. From Long
Ampung head for Data Dian ( 5 hour journey by motor boat
). MAF (Mission Aviation Fellowship) has
flights, However, MAF and the public airlines require
advanced booking (minimum 1
month before departing date),and reserve the authority to
prioritize seats for local citizens from around the Park - so outside
visitors often find themselves stranded even after numerous seat
reconfirmations. It is good to bring luggage less than 10 kg in weight
when flying ( limits each persons weight - including
luggage - at 80 kg). This makes it more flexible to secure a seat on
board on last minute seat availability. MAF puts even more restrictions
on luggage weight (up to 10 kg/person) on regular flights unless
chartered.

Kayan
Mentarang National
Park
Kayan
Mentarang National Park covers an area of 1,600,000 ha and is located
in the far interior of East Kalimantan province. The park comprises the
largest remaining block of rainforest in Borneo and as such forms a
very important refuge for numerous species, including many species that
are endemic to the Bornean mountain bioregion. About half of the
reserve consists of species-rich dipterocarp lowland and hill forest
while mountain forest ranges up to Kayan Mentarang's highest mountain
at 2,000 m. 40 Percent of the park has an elevation above 1,000 m. The
park is inhabitated by several thousand Dayak and Punan people who live
from shifting cultivation and rice farming. Wildlife is hard to see due
to hunting by native Dayaks. WWF has been working on developing
eco-tourist projects in cooperation with the local people. It has 5
field-offices in settlements around the park, which are helpful for
information. It also has a research station at Long Alango, north of
Long Pujungan, which can be visited, and is probably the best place to
see wildlife.
Accommodation
Some Guesthouses can be found in several villages of Kayan
Mentarang, but it' s worth to stay in the
many Dayak settlements inside the park. |
