Sumbawa Island with its
volcano, Mount
Tambora,
offers adventurous trekking, wonderful natural
forests, archeological sites, fantastic beaches, arts
and crafts and interesting Dutch colonial heritage.
Unfortunately Sumbawa is ignored by most tourists who
usually proceed straight to Eastern Indonesia.
If you chose to tour the entire island of Sumbawa we
recommend a visit to the Komodo Islands, one of
Indonesia? famous national parks featuring the
Komodo
Dragon, a large monitor.
Tambora Trekking can be arranged in the appropriate
season for the fit and healthy and for another option
trekking on advices.
