About Banjarbaru

Banjarbaru, a hidden gem in South Kalimantan, beckons with its vibrant culture and stunning natural beauty. The city's standout attraction is the stunning Sungai Barito River, offering breathtaking views and exciting water sports opportunities. One unique thing travellers love about Banjarbaru is the traditional Dayak longhouse, where visitors can immerse themselves in the rich history and customs of the local indigenous people.

The best time to visit Banjarbaru is during the dry season from May to September, when the weather is dry and sunny. For first-timers, a practical tip is to hire a local guide to navigate the city's rural roads and discover its lesser-known attractions, including the beautiful waterfall at Hutan Wisata Sungai Barito.
