Kelimutu Crater Lakes

When you arrive at Lake Kelimutu, you will be presented with views of cliffs from steep rocks. You will also be surprised by the figure of the cliff guard. A mob of brown-haired guard monkeys suddenly appeared from tree branches on the edge of the cliff. You do not need to linger over steep cliffs because it can jeopardize safety. After you walk-up through few stairs of stones, you can see two of the three lakes in the Kelimutu region. The two lakes are “Tiwu Nuwa Muri Koo Fai” and “Tiwu Ata Polo”, the lake on the right when the body position is facing the lake. This lake is deep black. While the lake on the left and the tosca green is Tiwu Nuwa Muri Koo Fai. These two lakes are located side by side, only separated by a cliff as the dividing wall. The separating rock cliffs are basin shaped. As far as the eye can see, around the lake there are only cliffs of rocks. The journey to the top of Kelimutu is very tiring. In addition to the fairly steep path, the air on the way to the peak is getting thinner because of its height. To unwind you can rest for a moment in the peak monument of Kelimutu. You could say after seeing the third lake, the monument surrounded by several steps is the next destination. Besides being able to sit and chat on the steps, capture photos, you can enjoy a cup of warm coffee, a perfect dish from the nature. #nationalpark#urbanexplorer

Kelimutu Lake

Kelimutu lakes (Part of Kelimutu National Park) are one of the most beautiful sights in Indonesia and one of the reasons why I would recommend you to spend some time on Flores rather than only staying around the Komodo Islands. The national park itself is well-known by many for its 3 forever-shifting tri-colored volcanic lakes that are situated 1,639 m above sea-level on top of a mountain. Kelimutu lakes are located in the eastern part of Flores island and there are 2 cities with airports you can fly into, Ende and Maumere. Ende is a little closer and so I would recommend you start your journey to Kelimutu from there. Go at surise so that you are likely to have a clear sky. The clouds often rolled in in the afternoon so you are less likely to have a nice view then. Wait until the sun shines on the lakes before you leave because the colors of the lakes are most vibrant when the sun is higher up in the sky. Plus, there will be considerably less people now. #nationalpark#urbanexplorer

Colored lakes at the peak of a volcano

Kelimutu is a volcano in central Flores, Indonesia, near the small town of Moni. It's about 50 kilometers east of Ende, Indonesia, which serves as the capital of the Ende regency in East Nusa Tenggara province. It features three different colored volcanic crater lakes. The three colored lakes at the peak of Mount Kelimutu are undoubtedly Flores' most beautiful natural attraction. Each of the three lakes has a distinct color, ranging from blue and green to murky brown and black, depending on the season and time of year. The 20-kilometer journey is well worth it just to see these three magnificent lakes. You can alternatively take public transportation to a parking lot and walk to the lakes for a 30-minute trek. #naturalwonders#beautifulsunsets#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Kelimutu National Park

Beautiful mountain famous for its three-coloured lakes. Their continuously improving the park, providing steps and paths that make it easier for visitors to reach the top. You can get a local guide to describe the park and show great views. The colors of the lakes change, so you may get to see a different shade of green or murky blue, depending on the time. I came in February which was a rainy season in here. It was not such a long hike to the top but the view is incredible. It is easy to climb up there but you better prepare a mask to cover your face from sulfur smell. You should hike before sunrise and watch sunrise up there if you’re lucky! ☀️🌤🌟⛰ #nationalpark #urbanexplorer #mountainview

Located in the mysterious tricolor lake at the foot of the Klimtu volcano in Indonesia, it has gorgeous colors and will fall asleep to change color and dream. Sword-like hill, picking a few milky white fog. They are filled with a piece of land, making the entire mountain area form a sea of envy. A layer of grass, like a cotton paved staircase.
