Kuala Gandah Elephant Orphanage Sanctuary

The truly unique Elephant Orphanage of Kuala Gandah will give you a very rare opportunity to not only learn about these displaced gentle giants but you will also get a chance to ride them through the jungle, with the help of an elephant guide, or mahout. For the brave and adventurous, there are opportunitites take the elephants down to the river and help give them a bath! There really is no better opportunity than this to get in touch with Big Nature. It is estimated that there are only 1,200 wild Asian Elephants, also known as Elephus Maximus, left in Malaysia and this is the only conservation centre set up to relocate these displaced pachyderms.
The elephants here have been rescued from all over Peninsula Malaysia where humans and elephants are not able to live in harmony.
