this new airport has been formally announced several time in the past and the rescheduled for a leter date.

With the opening of this new airport, lombok island will be the next destination for travelling.

For those of you who are yet to visit this fantastic island, you are in for a relaxed treat. Forget the hustle and bustle and be prepared for a lay-back holiday and, an introduction to a different culture and stunning scenery. My advice to anyone contemplating a visit or extended stay in Lombok is to hire a vehicle and drive around.

The roads are relatively good, the people super-friendly and a must-see is the towering volcano of Gunung Rinjani. The religion in the eastern half of the island is predominately Muslim. Handicraft villages abound right across the island and Lombok has some of the best diving and surfing to be found anywhere.

There are several attractions from Penelokan, starting with the view from the crater rim toward Lake Batur. Rim temples include Pura Ulun Danu Batur and Pura Tegeh Kuripan, both on the main road. A visit to the crater might include a boat trip to the traditional village of Trunyan, the lava fields, the hot spring at Toya Bungkah, or climbing Mt. Batur.

The best way to visit the crater is with your own transportation or chartered minibus. Walking is possible, but distances are long and the descent into the crater is very steep. You might want to finish your visit with a dip in the lake.

Penelokan and the crater villages are rather “un-Balinese” with vendors hassling you and people approaching you in the street to book accommodations.

Kintamani is the end-point of several tour itineraries heading up from the lower rice plain in the south. Most buses come up the good, scenic road via Tampaksiring, with stops on the way at Goa Gajah, Gunung Kawi and Tirta Empul, then going back down through Bangli and Pura Kehen. But there are other interesting routes. One leads from Peliatan in the Ubud area through the wood-carvers’ villages of Tegallalang, Pujung and Sebatu. The views along the way are superb. Other roads from Ubud to Kintamani run through Payangan or from Denpasar through the Sangeh monkey forest, Plaga and Lampu, arriving to the north of Kintamani.

To Trunyan from Kedisan
Down inside the caldera you can cross to the lake village of Trunyan either from Kedisan or from Toya Bungkah. Be warned that the people here can be quite aggressive. better if you go here with your tour guide.

Kintamani Activities
If you’ve always wanted to walk around inside the crater of an active volcano, here’s your chance. Mt. Batur is 1,717 m high, but the upper cone itself is only several hundred meters above the level of the lake and can be climbed and descended in a few hours. At the top, there’s a warm crust of ground over the cauldron. Be sure to hire a guide, as it can be dangerous.

There are several well-marked approaches to Batur. From Pura Jati, near Kedisan (where a large sign announces “Klim Prom Here-Please Polow, Wite Plag”), and from Toya Bungkah where the climb up and back takes about three hours. The latter route is notably easier.

Wear high-top shoes: the slopes are covered with fine dust. Other necessary supplies are drinking water and a snack or two. On reaching the summit your guide will boil some eggs (in the sand) and make coffee. If you’re fortunate, a great view stretching all the way to Lombok will be revealed as the sun rises.

Going down is much easier than climbing up and it’s possible to take another route down, via the hot spring at Toya Bungkah. Ask your guide to have a car ready to bring you back to the original starting point once you get down. The spring, set in a concrete pool, is not overly spectacular. This trip is not recommended during the rainy season (November-April).

There are a few dive sites to choose from at Menjangan with good conditions and excellent visibility. It’s also an interesting site for snorkeling. Menjangan also has a wreck , known as the ‘Anker’ because of its heavily encrusted anchor at the top of the reef. Fixed moorings have been built to prevent damag, and the island is reached by a 30 minutes boat ride from Labuan Lalang.

Menjangan’ s white sandy beaches make a nice location to break for lunch. Underwater, the drop-off along the south shore and eastern tip, facing the Bali Sea, are home to lots of colourful small fish and vertebrates, lacy sea fans and a variety of sponges. The sandy, gradual slopes of Menjangan’ s north coast is a final resting place for Bali’ s oldest dive able shipwreck, the Anker Wreck. Menjangan Islands north coast has also some beautiful snorkeling sites.

Even large pelagics are sometimes seen at Menjangan. Occasionally sightings of Whales, Whale sharks and Manta rays have been reported. Drift diving is usual, but currents are quite mild and all levels of divers can enjoy this area.

Here a tips and a few place to stay when you have plan to menjangan, i suggest you stay at Pemuteran at Taman Selini Bungalow beach front. If you prefer relax place stay 2 night is more recommended. Its take approximately 3.5 hour from Bali International Airport, Another option is to stay in the Park itself at Waka Shorea. You can only get there by boat. The downside being once youa re there, well, you are there. The upside is that the trip to the island is very short. Food is not bad. They have 2 villas as well. Get one of those if you can — much better experience than their regular rooms. Gawana Novus is also good choice, then there is Mimpi, (But for that price, I prefer Gawana).

if you want to do a trek in the National Park, it also starts in the morning – it’s not as hot. So you can actually arrive there, go snorkelling the next day, then chill out when you return, or check out Permuteran – it’s tiny. You can go and see the turtle sanctuary, pearl farm, or if you are game enough, rent a motorbike and explore the area yourself.
