Asian Trek lets you explore animals that call the largest continent home.

Begin your adventure in Dr. Diversity’s Research Station and encounter the giant stick and walking leaf insects, an aquarium teeming with tentacled snakes, and our reticulated python — all 18 feet of him!

Next, enter the domed jungle where you will discover colorful birds enjoying their tropical paradise — complete with a waterfall. Don’t miss Orangutan Valley where you can get nose-to-nose with endangered Sumatran orangutans.

Continue your trek at Tiger Forest where the endangered Sumatran tigers prowl. Next, journey down Tree Top Trail to see rare Javan gibbons and other unique rain forest creatures. Don’t miss the Kids’ Tree House!
