Key Facts

Kelimutu is a volcanic mountain located in the Ende Regency of East Nusa Tenggara province, Indonesia. Situated on Flores Island, Kelimutu stands approximately 1,639 meters above sea level and is renowned for its three striking crater lakes that periodically change colors due to volcanic gas emissions and mineral dissolution. The mountain forms part of the Kelimutu National Park, a protected area covering about 50 square kilometers that preserves unique montane forest ecosystems and serves as habitat for endemic Flores species. Kelimutu's most famous feature is its tri-colored lakes - Tiwu Ata Mbupu (Lake of Old People), Tiwu Nuwa Muri Koo Fai (Lake of Young Men and Maidens), and Tiwu Ata Polo (Bewitched or Enchanted Lake) - which have exhibited colors ranging from turquoise and green to black, red, and white at different times. The area holds significant cultural importance for the local Lio people, who consider the mountain sacred and believe the lakes serve as resting places for departed souls. As a major tourist destination in eastern Indonesia, Kelimutu attracts visitors seeking to witness its spectacular sunrise views over the colorful lakes and explore the surrounding volcanic landscape.
