The village is located on the Baram River between Long Palai (upstream) and Long Julan (downstream),[4] near the top of the area known as the Middle Baram. There is a longhouse and a school in the village.[5] A logging road links the village to Long Silat and K10 camp.[4]
The people in this settlement belong to the Kenyah tribe.[6] A tall structure called Belawing with flags has been erected in front of the longhouse.[7] Half of its population has moved to form a new village called Long Tebanyi. If the Baram Dam hydroelectric project goes ahead, Long Anap will be one of the villages affected by the flooding of 389,000 hectares of jungle.[8]
