Ecotourism – Travel with Purpose
At Gawah Bonga Foundation, we believe that travel can be more than just sightseeing — it can be a meaningful exchange between people and places.
Our Ecotourism program invites visitors to engage directly with local communities through activities that support environmental regeneration, cultural preservation, and sustainable livelihoods.
Join us in creating a new kind of tourism — one that heals, connects, and empowers.
What You Can Experience:
-
Reforestation Treks: Join our tree-planting days and help us restore native forests across degraded land.
-
Traditional Weaving Workshops: Sit with local women and learn the centuries-old art of Songket weaving.
-
Organic Farming Activities: Harvest vegetables, compost waste, and learn the basics of permaculture.
-
Cultural Immersion: Participate in village rituals, prepare local food, and share stories with host families.
Why It Matters:
Each experience is thoughtfully designed to benefit the community — economically, socially, and ecologically — while giving you a deeper understanding of local life and the environment.
This is not tourism that observes from a distance; it’s participation that creates shared memories and long-term impact.
