LORELINDU TREKKING TOURS
# Napu valley – Besoa valley and Bada Valey
Tour Description
Lorelindu trekking tours is the tour program to offer you to trek into the 3 main valley in Lorelindu National Park such :
- The Napu valley – is the largest of the three valleys and is surrounded by dense rainforest and towering mountains. The valley is home to several villages, where the locals are predominantly farmers, cultivating crops like rice and vegetables. The indigenous culture is strong here, with traditional houses and local practices still visible. We begin the Lorelindu trekking tours from Palu city, after the pick up arrivals services, a day before the journey begin. With drivers and local guide , we will drive about 5- 6 hours to Wuasa village located in the park. In this valley we can visit, Pekasele statue, Pekaltelinga statue, and Watulumu sites megalithics. There are homestay for us to stay overnight.
- The Besoa Valley is smaller and more remote compared to Napu, but it is equally significant for its natural beauty and historical importance. Besoa Valley is surrounded by rolling hills and forested mountains, offering a more secluded and peaceful environment. Before entering the Besoa valley we can visit Watutau village within traditional houses, Watunongko, and Tadulako megalithic and the beauty of Siliwanga grassland.
- The Bada Valley (also called Lore Bada) is the most famous of the three due to its rich collection of megalithic statues and its remote, unspoiled beauty and also the easiest way to travel. The valley is less developed than Napu and Besoa, making it a prime destination for adventurous travelers. The megaliths of Bada Valley are renowned for their size and enigmatic features. We can explore many sites of megalithic statues such Palindo, Langke Bulawa, Watuloga, etc.
The Napu Valley, Besoa Valley, and Bada Valley are located within and around Lore Lindu National Park in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. These valleys are part of a highland region known for its unique ecosystems and cultural heritage, including the famous megalithic stone sculptures in the Bada Valley. The flora and fauna in these valleys reflect the biodiversity of the park, which is part of the Wallacea biogeographical zone, a region that contains a mix of Asian and Australasian species.
