Ulu Temburong National Park, National park in Temburong District, Brunei.
Ulu Temburong is a national park in Brunei's eastern district covered by dense rainforest with rivers flowing through its landscape. The terrain consists of forested hills at varying elevations that support diverse wildlife habitats.
The park was established in 1991 as Brunei's first protected forest area. Since then it has developed into an important site for forest research and conservation work.
The park holds significance as a place where forest knowledge is passed down and where conservation efforts are visible to visitors. Local guides share their understanding of the rainforest ecosystem during walks through the trails.
Visiting requires boat transfers and overland transport to reach the park interior, so allow extra time for travel and connections. Waterproof clothing and sturdy shoes are essential since trails can be muddy and the climate is very humid.
An elevated walkway leads through the forest canopy offering rare views of animals that normally stay high in the treetops. From this vantage point, gibbons and other forest dwellers can be spotted in a way rarely seen up close.
