The experience

Driven by car to the top of the rural highlands, you will visit the scenic village of Pakat.

From here, take a stroll down to the riverbank to start your hike, while taking in the rich and varied views of the coast and farmland along the way.

Following your three-mile village and landscape trek and a short transfer by car, find time to explore the Sumba ‘Rice Island’.

This elevated jungle, which rises above picturesque rice fields, is the ideal place to relax and take it all in while indulging in a special NIHI® picnic.
