You heard it here first folks! In mid-2025 my expedition partner Ben and I plan to kayak the longest river in Indonesia from source to sea. As usual we'll be filming the whole thing and I'll eventually write a book about it.
It's called the Kapuas River, it's on the island of Borneo (in the Indonesian bit, West Kalimantan province), and it's roughly 1,140km long. Although since nobody can point me to the official source of the river, it might end up being longer than that. As with our Madagascar trip, we'll probably only find the source once we're on the ground, in the jungles of the Müller mountain range, trekking around for it!
Anyways, I'll keep y'all posted on preparations for the expedition in this thread, which will likely take at least 9 months.
