Here’s a look at Journey Into the Wild
The Nature Quest Programme turns the jungle into an interactive classroom with outdoor challenges designed by experts from the Shanghai Chen Shan Botanical Garden. Families learn skills like building a water filter, identifying first-aid plants, understanding rainforest biodiversity, earning rewards, and working toward a ‘Nature Master’ certificate.
The Wildlife Discovery Trail is a guided trek for adults and kids over eight, complete with flashcards and binoculars, offering a hands-on exploration of Cherating’s vibrant ecosystem.
For plant enthusiasts, the Botanist Adventure is a self-paced trail with a map and booklet to discover the rainforest’s unique flora, highlighting its medicinal and ecological roles.
Inspired by local conservation efforts, the Turtle Scavenger Hunt lets families join a simulated turtle egg rescue, making conservation fun and engaging for young explorers.
After sunset, the Stargazing Experience introduces constellations and celestial myths in a magical family session under the stars, set to launch at the end of November.
Lastly, the Insect Hotel invites budding entomologists to build bug habitats from natural materials. Guests observe and learn about insects’ roles in biodiversity, actively participating in nature conservation.
