If you want to make the climb, make sure you bring along plenty of drinking water. The climb itself takes about 5 hours, just make sure that you do not leave the trail, it is easy to get lost. Do the right thing and get a local guide for a few thousand rupiahs if you dont want to do it alone.

I hope you won't mind if I say that this reads like a lovely introduction but doesn't tell me very much. Which is the best part of the island to visit and why? How long should one stay - a few days, a week, forever? I' like to know more about some specific places on the island and why they are so great! (It does sound like a lovely place). by natalka57
