Informasi Pendakian

Getting there: The whole Toba area is one of Indonesia’s most visited places. Getting to/from Samosir from Sumatra’s capital, Medan, is straightforward but time-consuming. It is better to arrange transport in advance because the prices of taxis at Medan airport are ridiculous! It takes about 4 hours in a private car from Medan to Tiga Raja pier at Parapat (for the 30 minute ferry ride to Tuk Tuk). Shared taxis from Parapat to Medan cost just Rp75,000 per person and leave almost every hour during the day. It’s best to reserve in advance in either Parapat or Tuk Tuk. Another option since 2017 is to fly direct to Silangit from Jakarta. Silangit is less than 2 hours from Parapat and is very close to the southern end of the lake. Building work is still ongoing at the airport itself but it is going to be international eventually and transport options are likely to improve. At present (2017) you can hire a car and driver to Parapat for Rp400,000 (or if alone and very lucky just share a car with any others heading in the same direction for a fraction of the cost) or walk to the main road (1.5km away) and get in a cramped minivan to Parapat (Rp40,000 per person). The last boat over to Tuk Tuk leaves Parapat at around 6 or 7pm and the first one back is at 6.45am.
