Unforgettable camping experience

HELLO HIVERS

I really like adventure and really love nature, the beauty of nature always makes me happy when I look at it, my mind becomes calm as if I don't have any problems whatsoever, I like outdoor life such as fishing and climbing mountains, but this time I will share some precious moments that I got while camping with my friends in one of the lakes surrounded by beautiful mountains, let's start this journey

Last weekend, me and some of my friends went to a lake to camp and enjoy the beauty of nature, And this is the umpteenth time camping by the lake, it turned out to be a lot of fun even though to be honest I was quite cold at that time

The lake I mean is the lake that I have told you about in my previous post, which is called danau Lut Tawar and located hundreds of kilometers from my house, it took me about 6 hours of travel to reach this place

Recently, there have been many locations on the lake that have been used as camping grounds, one of which is the one I visited, this place just opened a while ago and is named ipukes Abdullah

This location is not very big, but the natural beauty that is offered from this place is no less interesting than some other camping locations, I have camped on this lake several times with different locations, but this time I chose this location because I was curious with the view seen from this camping location

When I headed to this place, it rained and wet us all the way, therefore my friends and I were a little late to arrive at the location, we only arrived at night, and immediately made a bonfire because we were very cold

---

---

Camping isn't legal without a fire, isn't it, and for dinner, we all opted to have some homemade roast chicken, no BBQ or anything like that, just simple food, all that matters is the moments together

Unfortunately, I didn't get many photos at night, because I was really cold to death, the rain had stopped by then, but because we were wet on the way so I felt cold like this, after enjoying dinner I went straight into the tent to rest, and the real adventure just started at noon

---

---

The sun was starting to shine, but the cloudy weather prevented me from enjoying the sunrise this time, but that was not a problem, because there were still many things that I could enjoy here, the beautiful mist that covered the mountains was no less interesting, and over time, the fog began to fade to reveal the beautiful mountains around the lake

Before starting to look for objects that I can take photos of, of course a cup of coffee in the morning will make me feel excited, and after I feel completely refreshed then I go around the camping area and look for the best spots to take pictures

My friends have split up, they are busy with their own business, but still in the same location, they have cameras and can easily take pictures, but not with me, I only rely on my cell phone to take pictures, and I have tried my best to get best photo

I started looking for objects from above this location, I was so surprised to see the entrance to the camp site, it turned out that the road was very steep, when I arrived I didn't pay much attention to the road, especially since I wasn't riding a motorbike at the time, the height of this hill was about 100 meters, even I felt quite tired to reach the top of the location, but everything paid off with the beauty of the natural scenery that I managed to capture on my cellphone, that's extraordinary natural beauty

The natural preservation here is still very natural and well maintained, some flowers also decorate the camping site, and at a glance you can also see the coffee plantations belonging to the residents who are on the left and right sides of this camping area

---

The flowers that are here are very difficult to find in my area, these flowers can only live in mountainous areas where the air temperature is cool, and this city is a nest of these beautiful flowers.

Above I talked about coffee plantations, now this city is the largest coffee producing region in Indonesia, even the coffee that comes from here is well known in several countries, the taste of coffee that comes from this city is different, the enjoyment cannot be doubted, outsiders the country knows him by the name of gayo coffee

After being satisfied at the top, I went back down to the camping area and started exploring the edge of the lake

---

---

The sun was starting to feel hot, I sat for a while after coming down from the hill and enjoying the view that was in front of me, a log was visible and really caught my attention, I went down to the lake and climbed up, and found a bunch of beautiful mushrooms on it

On this wood I sat for a few minutes, while inhaling the cool breeze that was blowing, my body getting used to the weather, and again shooting several pictures from all visible directions.

A boat began to be seen from behind the remaining fog, and it turned out to be local people who wanted to fish for crayfish to meet their needs. It turned out that this lake has extraordinary natural wealth, apart from lobsters there are also many large fish in the lake this

I was a little curious, how do they catch lobsters, so I followed the boat to see it from a close distance

---

---

While following the boat, my attention was diverted by a large wooden tree on the edge of the lake, I thought it was a banyan tree with a strange hole in the middle, I came closer and saw what I found, a pair of small children were seen playing on the edge of the lake, but I don't need to worry because the edge of the lake is shallow and the water is also calm, even children are also allowed to bathe on the edge of the lake, but may not cross the boundaries of the fence that has been installed

Not only a small child could be seen from the strange hole in the tree, the camping tent was also slightly visible when I peeked through the hole, and of course the boat I was following was also visible from this hole, my curiosity paid off, it turned out they were using net traps to catch lobsters, and one more thing, the log that I climbed on before also turned out to be deliberately placed there, so that the lobsters could nest in the log, I found out after I asked the person on the boat directly, it just so happened that at that time the distance between he and I are close enough to communicate

The lake water is very clear, even the corals in it can be seen clearly, I also washed my face with lake water to feel the freshness, and immediately returned to the tent because we will soon be leaving this place, and heading to another location, which is I happened to have posted yesterday

The moment of this trip is very difficult for me to forget, the thing that makes the most impression in my memory is when I headed to this place, my friends and I got wet because of the rain and experienced extreme cold 😅 but everything is worth what I got from this place this, I am satisfied with the natural panorama seen from the camping area, even before actually leaving I also took the time to take some more pictures

What do you think about this place, give your answers in the comments column, and about service and costs, you don't need to worry, to rent a camping tent in this place it only costs IDR 100,000 per tent, and we can accommodate three people in it. the size of the tent is quite large, and the general facilities are also complete, we only need to bring cooking utensils, for food we can buy it on the spot without having to bring it from home

So, those are some of my travel moments, before that I would like to thank @galenkp who has formed this amazing community, where we can all share our travel moments here, besides that, because it happens to be a Wednesday, so I say this post. happy #Wednesdaywalk to everyone, lots of wednesday travel moments hosted by @tattoodjay that you can visit there
