Indonesia is famous for many beautiful destinations such as Bali, Nusa Penida and Raja Ampat â but perhaps one of the most magical little spots is Wae Rebo Village, a mystical oasis nestled in the mountains and forest. The village is known for its tall conical shaped houses called âMbaru Niangâ and its community of friendly villagers who call this place this blog post, I will cover everything you need to know about visiting Wae Rebo Village and also share with you my experiences there â including my overnight stay in one of the traditional Mbaru Niang houses. But first, let me introduce myself. My name is Polina and Iâm from grew up in Minsk, Belarus and never traveled when I was a kid, but I always dreamt of exploring the world. I only first started traveling approximately five years ago. These trips inspired me to learn new languages because I wasnât able to communicate with local people â so I started with English and then a few years later I picked up a bit of Italian!Traveling in Indonesia for a Year and a HalfWhile I enjoyed traveling in Europe, there were other regions of the world that captured my interest too. My boyfriend and I had this dream of spending a winter in Asia. So we conjured up a plan to visit a few different countries such as Indonesia, Vietnam and Singapore. In 2020 we started our trip in Indonesia but then the COVID-19 pandemic ended up getting stuck in Indonesia for a year and a half! Once we realized that we couldnât travel internationally, we decided to spend our time exploring Indonesia as much as possible. During this time we traveled to Lombok, Surabaya, Jakarta, Mount Bromo, Ijen, Banyuwangi, Nusa Lembongan, Nusa Ceningan, Nusa Penida, Sumba, Flores and we were living in Indonesia for such a long time, we made friends with some locals. One guy ended up inviting us to share a trip to Wae Rebo Village. It wasnât exactly an organized tour but we did get to share the experience with a local which was pretty cool! I remember feeling this incredible calmness once we arrived at the village. It was a special place!Broken Beach, Nusa Penida © Polina panamarovapalinaExploring Indonesia © Polina panamarovapalinaPadar Island © Polina panamarovapalinaIjen Volcano Complex © Polina panamarovapalinaMount Bromo © Polina panamarovapalinaMy Experience at Wae Rebo VillageWe arrived at Wae Rebo Village in the evening. First of all, we had to go through this amazing ceremony where we were blessed to be âWaerebo Peopleâ. This event took place inside one of the traditional houses. The man who ran and performed the ceremony was the head of the a few hours in Wae Rebo, we were invited to have dinner with other travelers. We had this delicious omelet, rice and vegetable dish for dinner, and enjoyed sitting on the floor and conversing with other travelers. Once dinner was complete, we set off to explore more of the was a really peaceful space â a little bit foggy and cool. There were some animals roaming around the village like dogs and cats. We brought some treats for the kids there but based on the rules we couldnât give them our sweets without letting their parents know or asking for the adults approved, we gave the sweets to the kids and they were all so happy! So this is my first recommendation take some gifts for the kids. They will love you for it! We stayed overnight at the village and slept in one of the traditional houses. It wasnât possible to stay in the houses with locals, so we stayed in a house that was still traditional but only for day at 10pm all of the lights in the village are turned off and the magic begins. I donât think I have ever seen such a beautiful night sky as I did in Wae Rebo. There were so many stars and I couldnât stop watching and taking photos! It was a precious moment, one that I will never village gets quite cold at night, so my second recommendation is to take some warm clothes. I slept wearing sporting pants, a t-shirt, a hoodie and some warm socks. You can also take earplugs and a sleeping mask because it can be a little noisy with the other tourists sleeping next morning was awesome! I thought this would be the best time to take photos, and so we spent around an hour choosing different angles and scoping out different spots to shoot some photography. The breakfast was the same as our dinner but we also got to enjoy a cup of the way, the coffee at Wae Rebo Village is grown nearby and we got the opportunity to see how people process and roast it. You can also buy some traditionally roasted coffee here.

Their English is not good so consider hiring a guide Rp 200,000 to guide you up to the village and translate. Make sure to wear appropriate clothing covering shoulders and knees.

The path starts in Denge and is very obvious. Follow the largest trail and you will eventually end up in the village. There are numerous shortcuts but if you are unsure just stick to the main path. The first 1/3 of the hike is along a road that is under construction and not covered by trees so best start early before it gets warm. Right where construction ends there is a stream of water, upstream 20 m there is a small basin where you can cool down. To get to Denge follow the Flores highway west from Ruteng about 20 minutes and follow the sign towards Wae Rebo. The road will become progressively worse as you travel further from Ruteng. From the highway to Denge is about 2-3 hours of spectacular views and crappy roads. It is passable by car and scooter but consider being one person per scooter as the road is very bad. Google maps will find the way to "Gereja St. Petrus dan Paulus Denge" which is right below the path to Wae Rebo. There is a second way to get to Denge, following the coast from the west but the roads are even worse. It is however shorter in time if you come from/are going to Labuan Bajo.

Just before sunset we arrive at Wae Rebo. The head of the village - usually the eldest man in the village - welcomes us in his house with open arms. However, we need to ask for a permit first to enter the village and whether we will be welcomed. After our guide getting the permit the villages elderly men hold a welcome ceremony for us in manggaraian language. Don't worry. Our guide will translate it for you. Afterwards we get accompanied by villagers to the traditional manggaraian guest house where we set up our camp for the night possibly with other guests who arrived today.
