Gunung Anak Dara Hill is one of many hills that are favorites for hikers in Sembalun Lawang Village, Sembalun District, East Lombok. Anak Dara Hill reaches a height of 1,923 meters above sea level (masl). There is no doubt about the beauty of the views presented during the trip.
At the summit of Anak Dara Hill, visitors can see the sunset in the afternoon and the sunrise in the morning. If the climb starts at 10 a.m., the hiker usually reaches the peak no later than 5 p.m. From Anak Dara Hill, climbers can see residential villages in Sembalun.
So, how do you reach the top of Anak Dara Hill?
There are two routes to the top of Bukit Dara or Anak Dara, namely the southern route and the northern route. The distance between the two routes to the top of Anak Dara Hill is not far. You can reach the top of Anak Dara Hill from the south route in 4 hours, 30 minutes, or a maximum of 5 hours. The same is true if you choose the north route.
Usually, local climbers travel to the top of Anak Dara Hill on weekends. Anak Dara Hill has the stunning beauty of the savanna.
“At the top, there is a large savanna field. So you can set up around 100 tents. If you go there on weekends, it will definitely be busy.”
Through the Forest
The climbers will find a forest area at the bottom of the hill. After passing through the forest track for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, climbers will not feel too hot when climbing during the day.
After passing through a forest path with shady trees, climbers find post I above the forest called Tanjakan Sayang. Climbers can rest for 30 minutes to stretch their legs before reaching post II of the Tanjakan Cinta.
“But there is no spring water above. So you have to bring enough water if you have to spend the night.”
