Lombok- Things to do
It was nearing the end of the year and we were as usual planning a holiday. We chose to go to Lombok, an island near Bali. We wanted to make the best use of time there and we contacted Edy Sumedy at edytrekking@gmail.com . Edy planned our tour and it was a wonderful package of fun and adventure. Lombok is popular for Mount Rinjani trekking. The trekking is not available during the rainy seasons. So we did hard and soft trekking towards the Sindang Gila and Tiu Kelep waterfalls at the foothills of Rinjani. Sindang Gila Waterfalls Tiu Kelep Waterfalls The Black Monkeys The trail was wet due to rains and the rocks slippery but at the end it was one of the most beautiful sights to see, the waterfalls, with water so clear and sweeter than mineral water. Whilst trekking we saw the rare black monkeys. They are arboreal and they never come to the ground. Later that day we visited the traditional houses of North Lombok. They practice Wektu telu religion. W
