Hello travelers,
My boyfriend and I will be visiting Sumatra in February 2012 and we want to do some jungle trekking here. I have read about Gunung Leuser National Park. We settled for Kedah lodges but find it problematic to find directions on the web. Buses go from Medan to Kutacane , Banda Aceh .....etc but no tips how to get to actual lodges. We wrote couple of email through the Gurung Leuser Trek website but no reply so far. Does anyone have any information about transportation to Kedah or Ketambe lodges .
Thank you.

I haven't been there, but can offer this advice. If there is a village nearby, there is likely to be public transport of one form or another to it. If you can easily get to Kutacane, then it will be easy enough to get to the turn off to Kedah. From the turn off, it all depends on if there are villages along that road. If not and there are no buses plying the route, someone on a motorbike will definitely be able to take you. I'd just head up there and give it a go. You rarely get stuck in Indonesia as there is always someone wanting to make money from transporting people about.
