You are here:
Baby Orang-utan, Malaysian Borneo
Sepilok is conveniently located to be included with many of Sabah's highlights.
It is here that the orang-utan sanctuary has gained a worldwide reputation for its work.
Covering 40 square kilometres, the sanctuary is a rehabilitation centre for orang-utans which have been orphaned, injured or threatened by oil palm plantations. Although Sepilok is covered by thick jungle foliage, there are regular feeding times, when chances of spotting these fascinating creatures are almost assured.
An informative presentation gives you a background to the centre and we recommend that those with a particular interest in wildlife stay overnight in the area, enabling you to visit the sanctuary outside the busy times of day and explore the surrounding jungle in greater depth.
Even on a beautiful sunny morning never leave your hotel or lodge without a rain mac or umbrella as the weather can turn in an instant, especially in the jungle.
