Bagging It!

This forested peak is the most noticeable mountain near Banda Aceh. It has a large caldera, known as Lam Teuba, but it has not erupted since 1839. The traditional hiking route starts east of the peak, 2.5km north-west of Saree, which is itself one and a half hour’s drive (70km) from Banda Aceh. The hike can be done in one long day although there are places suitable for camping. There is a large cement pillar at the top.

Sadly, at present (May 2010) the entire area is off limits due to ‘the extensive presence of brimob forces in the area’. This situation is unlikely to change dramatically in the short term.
