The nearest main town is the capital of the Regency, Pangkalan Bun.Teluk Pulai, Waringin Barat, West Kotawaringin Regency, Central Kalimantan, Area: 4,150 km². Province: Central Kalimantan. The park is composed of 416,040 hectares of dryland dipterocarp forest, peat swampforest, heath forest,mangrove and coastal beach forest, and secondary forest

Four research centers have been established within the park for the study and rehabilitation oforangutans and other primates. Camp Leakey, founded in 1971 with assistance from the Leakey Foundation, was the first of these centers. It was here where Dr. Birute Galdikas began her career studying the behavior of rescued and orphaned orangutans that were reintroduced into the wild. Her research was highlighted as the cover article of National Geographic in October 1975. Dr. Galdikas is now considered one of the world’s leading experts on orangutan behaviour and is the founder and president of the Orangutan Foundation International.

The Tanjung Puting National Park
was set aside in the 1930s by the Dutch colonial government for the protection of the orangutans and proboscis monkey, and was designated as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 1977 and a national park in 1982.

In addition to ORANG UTAN and PROBOSIC MONKEY (Long nose monky) , the park is also home to gibbons, macaques, clouded leopards, sun bears, wild boars, porcupines, and sambar deer. The park also features many reptiles, including crocodiles, monitor lizards, and pythons, birds, including hornbills and kingfishers, and insects, such as the giant Bornean butterfly. The Pondok Ambung Tropical Forest Research Station was established in 2005 for the study of all wild species found in the park.

Today Tanjung Puting National Park is a popular ecotourism destination, with many local tour companies offering orang utan tour by boat tours " KLOTOK " to view wildlife and visit the research centers. The park was home to 105,000 people as of 1997. The park was heavily damaged by fires in 1997 and 1998, and today remains threatened by illegal logging, illegal mining, and forest clearing for agricultural uses.

Conservation efforts by Indonesian NGO Friends of the National Parks Foundation is leading towards a slow but progressive reforestation of damaged areas. Their reforestation work has seen the planting of thousands of saplings in the area to recreate habitat for the endemic wildlife in the area of National Park Tanjung Puting.
