We were glad that we visited Earth Lodge at Ulu Muda. It is a beautiful remote location and we realised that the moment we arrived at the jetty and as we traversed Muda lake and the river to reach the lodge. There's nothing like observing wildlife in their natural habitat. Though not easy in the rainforest and with some luck, we saw the majestic Asian elephants, langurs, long-tailed macaques, hornbills, raptors and a variety of other birds over 5D/4N.

Earth Lodge offers a unique off grid rainforest experience. It is off the beaten track and can only be reached by boat so the visit starts with a boat trip of around one to one and a half hours across Muda lake and up the river to the lodge.

Our 3 days & 2 nights stay at the earth logde was really amazing, we were lucky to see 3 wild elephants and many other animals during the day tours. Waking up to the sound of the singing Gibbons was very unique. Our guide Ahmad was very friendly en helpful too. In comparison to Taman Negara, it was less touristic and there was way more respect for the wildlife in general.

We just spend 3 nights - off the grid - at the Earth Lodge at Ulu Muda. What an amazing nature and scenery! Bird and animal watching while cruising the lake and rivers ... Feel truly blessed for seeing the big group of elephants with young, hornbills, monitor lizards and so much more. Wish we could have stayed longer and hope to come back one day to spend a night at the hive. Thanks for the great hospitality, food and company! Learned so much from you guys! Can truly recommend this to all true nature lovers!
