North Sumatra – Sumatera Utara – Recommendations for short trips

If you are in a hurry travelling the north of Sumatra, i. e. don’t have more than 3 or 4 days, here is some recommendations for you. I am writing these lines because the directions I had googled for a 3 day trip from Singapore didn’t make it clear to me that it’s hardly possible seeing more than one destination in Sumatera Utara at such short duration. Travelling is really tiring and it is a waste of time spending too much time on it. Distances are short, but lousy road conditions and traffic jams in the urban areas make them long time-wise. So take your time choosing your personal destination on your short trip in the country. Most likely you will enter into the country by flight arriving in Polonia airport of Medan. The old airport is in town actually, whereas the new airport will be approximately 30 k out of town. They wanted to start operation already in 201, but when the first plane landed the runway broke – they built the airport on the moor and obviously didn’t build it strong enough – this is Indonesia! Anyhow, I strongly recommend choosing from one of those 3 options: 1. Bukit Lawang (jungle, wild animals and relaxing) 2. Lake Tabo (relaxing and hiking) 3. Brastagi (Berastagi) hiking the volcanoes)
