Batang Ai provides easy access deep into the jungle.

Batang Ai means "main river". The river has been dammed to form the site of one of the largest hydroelectric schemes in the region. A huge manmade reservoir provides a magnificent backdrop to some breathtaking scenery. Beyond the lake, visitors can see wonderful dipterocarp forests with drooping trees overhanging the river. In this area the primary means of transport is by boat on the rivers. Batang Ai National Park is boat trip away, and has a huge variety of wildlife and flora to amaze the visitor. The trip to the park takes you up river past tiny villages and fish farms. A short hike through areas of the park will provide an insight into the flora and fauna of the region. The park is home to wild Orang-utans and many other protected wildlife such as the hornbills and gibbons.

The Hilton Batang Ai Longhouse Resort is located on the shores of a spectacular freshwater lake, surrounded by mountains and the unspoiled rainforests of Sarawak. Its design is based on the traditional timber longhouses of the region's native Iban Tribes.
