Mangkiling Jungle Wildlife at Meratus Mountains

Mangkiling, located in the Benawa district, is a remote region that is largely covered by dense jungle, nestled deep within the interior of the area. This place is known for its cool and pleasant climate, as it is beautifully shaded by towering trees and situated along the banks of a swiftly flowing river. Despite its challenging accessibility, many travelers who visit South Kalimantan Island make it a point to explore this area. Near Mangkiling, there is a village that is home to several thousand people.
