Indonesia Pura Ulun Danu Tamblingan

Lake Tamblingan lies in a plateau inside an ancient volcanic caldera. Inside the caldera are several dormant ancient volcanoes and other caldera lakes to the east of Lake Tamblingan: Lake Buyan and Lake Bratan. Lake Tamblingan is the smallest lake inside the caldera. The lake location, over a 1000 meter high plateau, gives it an alpine climate. Pristine rainforest with orchids and macaques covers the shore of Lake Tamblingan. Only one village exist on the shore of Lake Tamblingan, the village of Gubug, at the southern shore of the lake.

The water level of Lake Tamblingan changes depending on the intensity of the rainy season. During the intense rain period, some temples along the shore can get inundated.

Try not to go during the school-off season and go during the week there to avoid people camping up there and walking through your pictures.

You need to provide a donation to go to the temple as a foreigner. Parking is available. Road access is not the best but doable with a car and as well with a motorcycle.
