Hotels in North Sumatra, Indonesia
North Sumatra sits on the Indonesian island of Sumatra, with a tropical climate that keeps temperatures around 75-85°F (24-29°C) year-round. This region is famous for Lake Toba, a massive volcanic crater lake, and Bukit Lawang's orangutan trekking. During the dry season (May to September), you can hike to Samosir Island's traditional Batak villages or kayak on the lake, while the rainier months (October to April) mean fewer tourists and lower prices for exploring Medan's Dutch colonial buildings.
