Bukit Merah Orang Utan Island

A 35-acre island nestled within the idyllic setting of Bukit Merah Laketown Resort, an eco-friendly 7000-acre freshwater lakeside vacation getaway in Semanggol, Perak. Orang Utan Island is today a global eco-tourism destination.

Since its inception in 2000, Orang Utan Island has progressed from being a sanctuary, where visitors experienced first-hand awareness and education on the orangutan, to a recognised
ex-situ conservation facility and referral centre for the endangered Bornean orangutan.

A visit to Orang Utan Island will convince anyone why the orangutan has endeared itself as
a symbol of Malaysia.
