Tanarara Hill
Bukit Tanarara
Highland grassland beside the main East–West Sumba road, with rolling hills often wrapped in morning mist. It is a classic stop on a road trip.
Tanarara Hill lies in the Matawai Lapau area, about 50 km west of Waikabubak. It sits at high altitude, and the grassy slopes on both sides of the road roll like green waves, with mist often drifting through the valleys in the morning. It can be visited on the way from East Sumba to West Sumba (Waikabubak–Waikabubak). The viewpoints are right beside the road, so no hiking is needed. The highlands are cool, so bring a jacket for the morning.
