Glamping with Fantastic view of Toba Lake
#100waysoftravel
The Kaldera Toba Nomadic Escape, often called "The Kaldera," is a stunning glamping and eco-tourism site located on the edge of Lake Toba in North Sumatra, Indonesia. Situated on the Caldera Toba Geopark, a UNESCO Global Geopark, it offers a mix of luxury, nature, and breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Toba, one of the world’s largest and deepest volcanic lakes.
What made Kaldera become a popular spot is due to the beautiful view, The Kaldera is perched on a hillside with unobstructed views of Lake Toba and the surrounding mountains, offering one of the best vantage points for enjoying sunrises, sunsets, and the lake’s vast blue waters.
Other than the view, visitors also like to have a unique experience, such as glamping; It features modern tents and unique “bubble” accommodations that combine the experience of camping with the comforts of a hotel. The tents are equipped with beds, private bathrooms, and some even have private terraces overlooking the lake.
Visitors can enjoy hiking, mountain biking, and cultural experiences with local Batak communities. Guided tours and nature walks around the geopark are also available, adding an educational element to the visit.
Its open for a daily visit with a ticket fee, or to stay overnight. The Kaldera Toba Nomadic Escape is ideal for travelers looking to experience Lake Toba’s natural beauty with a mix of adventure, relaxation, and sustainable practices.

Asahan River Rafting

One of the best Rafting in the World
very exciting and incredibly tense and very satisfying.
The good thing about this rafting manager is that you can discuss and negotiate the price and also the support team that is very careful so that rafting can be controlled properly.
if there is a spot that needs help, there is already a support team that will help
here the rafting is not too long, only about 30-45 is finished, but it is very happy and very satisfied
There are many spots that we will pass and all are good, especially the waterfall is really amazing.

Beautiful views
I just love how most places in toba, whether cheap or expensive offer such great views or the lake. The restaurant offers a stunning view of lakeside Toba, making it a beautiful spot to enjoy a meal. But what truly surprised me was the food and service—both were absolutely top-notch. Food is very interesting and incorporates local Batak flavours. We tried their signatures - Iga Sapi Panggang with authentic Batak recipes and it was amazing! The spice, the taste, the meat, everything is perfect. Overall, it's a stunning spot for lounging and any meal of the day. The vibe is so chill.

Ponot Waterfall
#indonesiatrip 5 star is for the view, such a breathtaking scenery.Road access is quite good with winding roads, cliffs and valleys but it will be worth it.
Unfortunately tourists still do not aware to take part in preserving the nature, garbage everywhere although government have prepared the trash bin.It is off the main road, the road to the falls is a bit rough. The site of the falls is breathtaking. The local wants 20,000IDR.
Asahan River Rafting
#indonesiatrip Thanks to Sahrul & namboru (the lady cook) who cared for us all the time we were in Parhitean
This place is a gem in the middle of the jungle, directly on the side of the big Asahan river
The one and only, i think
Lots of space to camp (even they provide camps) or, the bungalows
The cooking was simple but tasty
We must appreciate their cooking because it's freshly made, knowing that the ingredients come from 3-4 hours away from here
And... the river is a few steps away
I really enjoyed swimming in it, although the current is very strong. They have a spot where it's deep and less rocks.
This place is just amazing
Rafting is also amazing. Great job Sahrul & team
(Few of them are ASEAN/ Indonesia/ North Sumatra champions) so don't worry about their safety standards
Hatulian Beach
#indonesiatrip The other side of lake toba, a perfect place to calmly enjoy golden sunset. Some street food vendors are easy to find with reasonable price, but not too many so its not overcrowded. Highly recommend to buy fried banana and enjoy it a cup of hot tea to accompany u enjoying sunset moment.Love the landscapes. Amazing lake with friendly locals.wish to go back here.
