Lake Toba

The caldera of a supervolcano in North Sumatra, Indonesia, is home to the sizable natural lake known as Lake Toba. The largest lake in Indonesia is Lake Toba, which is 100 km long and 30 km wide. One of the most popular tourist destinations in North Sumatra is Toba. Due to a significant volcanic explosion, Lake Toba was created. This eruption creates a caldera, which later becomes submerged in water. The fact that there is an island called Samosir Island in the midst of the lake, which has a depth of 450 meters, is one of the lake's distinctive features. Lake Toba is also one of the most beautiful lakes in Asia.


Samosir Island, which has an area nearly identical to Singapore, has not yet seen a lot of tourists, thus it is still quite natural and rich in traditional culture. Lake Sidihoni and Lake Aek Natonang are the two lakes on Samosir Island. The ancient Batak People still live on Samosir Island. Stone burials and traditional settlements are among the remnants of the past that may be found on the island. If you want to experience the calm of nature while learning about cultural diversity, Samosir is the place for you
