Lake Lau Kawar is located at the foot of Mount Sinabung, in Kutagugung Village, Namanteran District, Karo Regency, North Sumatra Province. The lake is surrounded by mountains, and covered with tropical rainforest timber trees. This area is a Leuser Ecosystem Area (KEL) with an altitude of 2,451 meters above sea level. With a distance of about 70 km from downtown of North Sumatra Province, you will find the atmosphere of a cool climate with temperatures from 16 to 17 degrees Celsius so that this area is classified as fertile.
The scenery around the lake is very beautiful. The water is calm and clear. Before the eruption of Mount Sinabung in 2011, the lake was covered with orchids, which made the scenery more stunning. Along the lake's edge lies a 3-hectare area perfect for camping and overnight staying. Besides enjoying the lake, you can also engage in various activities, such as fishing, renting a boat, taking a boat ride, or rock climbing.
The trip to Lake Lau Kawar is fun because it is presented with beautiful nature with lush green plants. Along the way, you will also pass by traditional Karo houses that are hundreds of years old in Lingga Village. The name "Kawar" attached to Lau Kawar Lake comes from a fertile village where the residents primarily engage in farming. As a result, the villagers always enjoy abundant harvests.
