Lombok’s ‘terraced rice heaven’, Tetebatu is a tiny village set on the southern slopes of the Mount Rinjani National Park. Phenomenal views of Mount Rinjani, the second-highest volcano in Indonesia, along with Mount Sangkareang, bright green forests and terraced rice paddies draw nature photographers to this tranquil, tourist-free natural paradise. Hikers have a world to explore in the monkey forest, decorated with caves, spring-fed streams and spectacular waterfalls, including the mighty Jukut Waterfall and home to grey macaques and the rare black monkeys. Food lovers will delight in the chance to sample and buy flavoursome fresh produce at its source: exotic fruits, cocoa, coffee, nutmeg, chilli, macadamia nuts, vanilla and more.
