Must-see attractions
Sungai Wain Protection Forest
Balikpapan

Guides (compulsory) can be arranged at the park entrance. Take angkot 8 to Km15 (6000Rp), and an ojek 6km west....
Ruko Bandar
Balikpapan
　　This waterfront development is unique in Kalimantan and offers everything you need for a night out, including above-par restaurants, live music, lounge bars and a dozen fun but easy-to-miss waterfront cafes (at the rear, facing the sea). Make this your first evening stop. ...

Bukit Bangkirai
Balikpapan
　　Standing 30m up on the canopy bridge among old-growth dipterocarp trees offers an impressive view and an adrenaline shot, but it's hard not to feel sad about the countless other trees no longer standing nearby – clear-cut by the very company preserving these relics. Take angkot 8 to Km38 (15,000Rp),...
