Trekking
package to mount Kelimutu three colour lake 4
days 3 nights from Bali island or Lombok island
and ending at Maumere. Kelimutu National Park
is located on the island of Flores, Indonesia. It
consists of a region with hills and mountains,
with Mount Kelibara (1.731 m) as its highest peak.
Mount Kelimutu, which has the three coloured
lakes, is also located in this national park. This
unique natural attraction is a destination for
tourists from many regions.
Some endangered plant species are protected in this
national park, such as: Toona spp., Anthocephalus
cadamba, Canarium spp., Diospyros ferra, Alstonis
scholaris, Schleichera oleosa, Casuarina
equisetifolia and Anaphalis javanica.
Some endangered animals can also be found here,
such as: Cervus timorensis, Sus sp., Gallus
gallus, Elanus sp. and Dicrurus sulphurea.
The western lake, Tiwu
Ata Mbupu (Lake of Old People) is commonly blue.
Tiwu Nuwa Muri Koo Fai (Lake of Young Men and
Maidens) and Tiwu Ata Polo (Bewitched, or
Enchanted Lake), which share a common crater wall,
are commonly green- and red-colored, respectively,
although lake colors vary periodically. Active
upwelling, probably fed by subaqueous fumaroles,
occurs at the two eastern lakes. The scenic lakes
are a popular tourist destination and have been
the source of minor phreatic eruptions in
historical time. The summit of the compound
1639-m-high Kelimutu volcano is elongated two km
in a WNW-ESE direction; the older cones of Kelido
and Kelibara are located respectively three km to
the north and two km to the south.
