A Habitable Volcanic Island On A Lake

Item : Samosir or Samosir Island located in Lake Toba Location : 2.6273° N, 98.7922° E Getting here :1) Kuala Namu International Airport then drive to Parapat then take a boat to the Island. OR 2) I chose to Land at Silangit Airport take a pte car with driver and drive thru a sceenic view throughout the journey. Worth the Visit : 100% 💯 Samosir Island is literally a volcanic island located in the middle of Lake Toba. This place gives you an island vibes. So chill and so slow paced. I suggest bringing your kick scooter or long board or skateboard. You can also rent a bicycle. I chose to cycle around the island. You can also hike. I hiked the Bukit Holbung. Goodness gracious the view is phenomenal. There is no piblic transport in the island but there are local around that you can hire with a bike so you just pillion them. You can nego the price. I will definitely come back here again. Lake toba is majority Batak community so it is hard to find Muslim food. There are but very few halal restaurants. I lodge in a Lake Front Chalet overlooking the lake. Can be a bit scary for city dwellers like myself because I'm so used to noise. So when you come here, you can just hear crickets, frogs and the sound of the water crashing the land. #passionpassport
