Bajawa to Ruteng

Today we leave Bajawa and head towards Ruteng. The road takes us towards the coast again with some lovely views of the coast as well as lush mountains.
We stop on the coast for the last swim of the trip before heading back on the road which takes us back inland and to the mountains. As we approach Ruteng we pass lots of beautiful terraced rice paddies in varying stages of growth, showing colours from young green to ripe yellows. The beautiful landscapes together with the low clouds are a nice way to end the day as we find our homestay for the night, located in a village surrounded by rice paddies.Read more
