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 residents of this settlement are members of the Kenyah tribe, specifically the Kenyah Lepo' Sawa' sub-ethnic group.^[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]
