Wolobobo Hill has a very beautiful and stunning view. From the top of the hill, visitors can witness the view of green mountains and valleys as well as the vast sea stretching in the distance. In addition, the hill is also surrounded by forests and coffee plants that provide a soothing sensation of nature.
From a high altitude, the hills and valleys of Bajawa City can be seen adorned with trees, as well as the sharp peak of Mount Inerie. There are several photo spots provided by the local tourist operator for visitors to take pictures. Its location at high altitude makes the air very cool with a calm and serene atmosphere.
In the afternoon, many visitors come to enjoy the beauty of the sunset. As the sun sets, thin wisps of mist fill the valley as if forming a charming lake and the silhouette of Mount Inerie shrouded in thin clouds is soothing to the weary soul.
The charming Wolobobo Hill is located in Turekisa Village, West Gelowa District, Ngada Regency, Flores, East Nusa Tenggara. It takes about 20-30 minutes by car from Bajawa City. The road access is quite good, but some parts of the road are potholed and uphill, so care must be taken.

Getting to Wolobobo is easy, with a short drive of 9.8km for half an hour, followed by a 30-45 minute hike to the top of the crater. Head east from Bajawa along the Transflores Highway towards Bajawa Soa Airport. Then about 3.5 km after Boua Village, turn right and follow the paved road straight. In about 2 km, you will come to a crossroads; turn left and follow the road all the way to the end to the base of Wolobobo. Leave Bajawa at 5am if you want to see the beautiful sunrise or 5pm if you want to see the exotic sunset from the top of the hill. Both are equally good. Don’t forget to bring a torch to light up the trail.
For visitors who love adventure and natural beauty, Wolobobo Hill is a highly recommended tourist destination to visit. However, keep in mind that to reach the top of the hill, visitors must have sufficient stamina and adequate equipment for climbing.
