What to do or see here

The main attraction is the three crater lakes, famous for their changing colors. Witnessing sunrise over them is magical.

Best Time to Go

Dry season (May-Sept) is ideal. Aim for sunrise for the best light on the crater lakes and fewer crowds.

Who is it for?

Kelimutu is accessible for everyone. It's a super short and easy 20 to 30-min hike from the carpark to the viewpoint. It's also safe (even at sunrise!) for solo female travellers.

Top Tips

Tickets are valid for 24 hours – buy before sunrise so if you don’t get a good view, you can return the next morning (within 24 hours) to have another go at seeing the sunrise.
