South Kalimantan is a captivating region located on the island of Borneo in Indonesia. It is known for its lush rainforests, winding rivers, and rich cultural heritage.

Nature enthusiasts will be thrilled by the stunning landscapes of South Kalimantan. The region is home to several national parks, such as Meratus Mountains and Kaget Island, where one can encounter diverse wildlife, including the rare proboscis monkeys. The Meratus Mountains offer excellent opportunities for trekking, with trails that lead through dense forests, past waterfalls, and up to scenic viewpoints. For those interested in culture, South Kalimantan has a wealth of traditional arts and crafts.
