Merese Hill
About
Merese Hill, on Lombok, is a coastal high point above the Kuta area that first-time visitors reach for the wide views over the bays and headlands below.
Jl. Tj. Aan, Kuta, Kec. Pujut, Kabupaten Lombok Tengah, Nusa Tenggara Bar. 83573, Indonesia places the hill just outside Kuta Lombok, within easy driving distance of Mandalika and the beaches around it. Travellers staying in Senggigi or Mataram can reach the hill by road along the island's southern coast. Visitors have given Merese Hill a 4.7 out of 5 average across 147 reviews, a strong showing for a viewpoint of this kind. The hill sits in the south of Lombok, with the Gili Islands, Tetebatu, Sendang Gile and Senaru all lying further afield across the island.
Bring a little patience for the walk and expect the light to shift quickly through the afternoon. The climb is short but the ground is uneven in places, so sturdy footwear helps.
Moving between Indonesian islands depends on ferries, fast boats and domestic flights, which is worth planning around if Lombok is one stop on a longer route.
