The Traditional village of Segenter, house has only recently been promoted to become a tourism destination area located in North Lombok district, precisely in the Bayan sub-district, which is a village below the slopes of Mount Rinjani which has land-based curls that are dry grasslands in the summer.
At the Begawe or their wedding party they cook in the courtyard and also see a large gazebo or “Sekenem” which means six-legged Saung
Certainly these features have rocky soil and rock beneath them and this is what happened when I visited this traditional house the air temperature was very hot and there were no parking spaces.
There were trees that shaded so I wanted to take shelter where, there were only a few shadows the name survived come that’s where I waited while I was called the local Guide who would invite us into the village.
Traditional village Segenter Situation
Shortly thereafter came a young man from Segenter village and invited us to go inside while looking at the village situation which impressed the life of the past due to the walls of all the houses constructed of wood and woven bamboo walls and thatched grass roofs.
In Segenter, there are also several houses that have been converted into walls and roof tiles also have buildings that are constructed of stone and cement which is a pool of community water reservoirs built by the government for Segenter villagers.
In the corner of this village with a rather broad collective cow stable belongs to the community of Segenter village.
Almost every house has a Saung or gazebo if it’s English but the Sasak people often call it as fast as (pole 4) Sekenem (pole 6) which is used by families to relax or a place to welcome guests.
Appears at that time in the middle of several pages Kendi, Kentong, The pan and others said they had just held a party for the wedding so they cooked for the party in the middle of the open courtyard without a roof that housed the cooks.

Hospitality in Segenter village traditional house
Whenever we see grandmothers who chew betel nut sitting on the ground in front of their doorstep while sifting rice for cooking.
We are invited by the local Guide to enter one of the houses while explaining the situation and situation in the house, there is something unique to be listened to in the house.
There is a kind of house on stilts measuring only 2 x 2 meters, he said, the place for new brides means if there is one child from a newly married family, this is the place while others sleep around the place using a simple couch on the ground and not far from the corner this house has a family kitchen.
The place in the left hand of the Guide is a room for the bride during her honeymoon. The place in the Guide’s left hand is a room for the bride during her honeymoon
All of the tourists consisting of 4 foreigners I brought, each from different countries, France, England and 2 people from Denmark, really felt something different here, he said because they had previously visited traditional homes in other places. including in Malaysia, he said, but not like their experience here.
In traditional houses in other places they have visited, traditional houses appear, but many other modern things that appear to have been modern, he said, including in the house there are televisions and the residents wear Jean’s pants, he said.
They seemed satisfied with their visit to this place from time to time while they were cool while walking comparing the stories of each of their experiences elsewhere and after completion visitors were invited to fill in the visit book and each was welcome to pay a donation and pay a local guide for Rp. 20,000 for all.

Lingsar is a region rich with springs, under the thick and thick hillsides. It seems clear if we see it from the main road or around the city of Mataram when the weather is sunny.
Closer if seen from the city of Narmada, the city of water as Narmada city. There are even bottled mineral water companies that take water or distill water from Narmada region sources.
Until bottled water was labeled “Narmada” one day when visiting Lombok, Narmada bottled water was very dominant in small shops and large shops.
Until we can find in the mini market, Indomart or Alfamart, we can find Narmada bottled water.
Together with BNI 46 bank employees Mataram branches in Lombok Rafting
The exact location of the village of Batu Mekar can take the main route of the provincial road through 3-way junction in front of Narmada Park, driving north through a smooth asphalt road.
At the third intersection again (there is a small monument) if we go to the left will go to Lingsar Temple but we just pass to the north, then there will be the words “Karang Bayan street” until the road narrows.
The road has been given an additional shoulder with cast concrete construction, then you will find the Welcome Gate to BATU MEKAR Village, the road construction is still smooth with winding contours up and down.
In 3-way junction, there is a bridge, there is a river that has enough discharge, not too large, which is the same water flow as the Rafting location.
This river is called “Kokok Jangkuk” in Sasak or other words, Jangkuk river. Well around this location is the location where the sale of durians is quite famous for residents of the city of Mataram, during the durian season.
Karang Bayan street which has now been given a very good asphalt, only this road is still narrow, but this road has been given a road shoulder with cast concrete recently.
If we head east to the Batu Mekar village office, before arriving at the Batu Mekar village office there is 3-way junction if it passes to the Batu Mekar village office with poorer road construction and if it turns left the road will climb until it breaks up on the hill.

At the third intersection there is the LOMBOK RAFTING signboard here, there is a hallway to the place where the finishing pavement breaks through the mangosteen and rambutan plantations.
There is an open hall that is used for lunch locations and places to put all the needs for Rafting activities.
There are 2 cars to transport orange participants with an off road display. Around it are mangosteen, rambutan and dragon fruit gardens.
There is a ditch of irrigation water that is channeled to the nearest rice fields, not far from this location is the riverbank location finish or Lombok Rafting Base Camp.
So if you play Rafting you have to be taken upstream, by using a raft transport vehicle as far as 7 km along the rocky river, with a fairly strong current.
On the river side there are lush green fields. Other Rafting base camp locations “JONTLAK RAFTING” are also adjacent to “LOMBOK RAFTING” and in other location you can find “Stokel Rafting” in Middle Lombok district.
Both of them have a mission to develop the Jangkuk river tourism echo, they are in line and synergism to support each other, lend to each other’s equipment if among them are short of boats or others.

The surrounding atmosphere is very beautiful with the cool countryside and close to the hill line to the west of Mount Rinjani.
Fertile and spring sources scattered, so that in this place there are many maintenance ponds of tilapia, carp and carp, the atmosphere of the houses still looks simple construction of buildings.
Nearly 50% of villages are Balinese-style, when viewed from a house building there is a place to place offerings in front of many people’s homes like what we see on the island of Bali.
Even at times you can see Hindu religious rituals in the middle of the road, on the other hand you can also see Muslim residents with a characteristic of residents sitting in front of the house wearing a veil.
This atmosphere can be proven when you ride an off road vehicle carrying Rafting participants to the upstream direction, by crossing the terrain that will make your heart beat fast.
While riding a vehicle, with a standing position and at any time will pass the dirt road with sloping conditions. Until female participants must be screaming hysterically with the condition of this field.
Don’t forget when standing on a vehicle carrying a Rafting participant to pay attention to tree branches, so as not to get hit by your cute face huh.
Before arriving at the Lombok Rafting start location, many road segments are empty, there are no buildings on this side of the road.
Still in the form of a garden planted with a variety of plants and plants and the sound of insects and birds sounds very serene.
Bidadari rafting is the last rapids near the base camp of Jangkuk Rafting
The length of the river that we will go through in the field of Rafting in Batu Mekar village is approximately 6.5 km with a distance of 2 hours or 1.5 hours if the river flow is large, especially if during the rainy season.
The depth of the river ranges from 1 meter to 1.5 meters and there are even locations that make the Rafting run aground. At this location there are 5 rapids: The first one we named Welcome Boom.
Because this is what we are going to go through for the first time, with a narrow form of stone walls with a very strong and wavy flow.
Then the second rapids we named Nyanyang Boom, this name was taken from the sound of bees, it was said that the parents of the predecessors in this village used to have many bees.
This is one of the most extreme rapids, this is the location of one of the rapids that seldom participates who want to try it because it will likely bounce or the rubber boat will be reversed, who dares to try it?
I have tried it 3 times, the rubber boat has never been turned upside down but it really feels horrible, hehehehe …
Therefore, participants who are afraid to try it must walk across the rice fields for about 50 meters while heading to the jumping spot.
If anyone likes the challenge of jumping, try it at this location, with varying heights of 3 meters, 4 meters and 5 meters.
Next you will go through the Candles because the rapids are long like candles, then the next rapids are called rapids.
Because on the south or left edge of the rapids there are cow cages, here are also quite extreme because there are many large stones, the flow of water flows through the cracks of the rock.
The last one we named the Angels rafting because in this location many villagers bathed in the style of “Open air” aka bathing in the open air.
For gentleman participants, just focus ahead, don’t the lyrics of sin know. Well, not far from this location, our rafting is finished, aka finish.
Off road vehicles carrying participants
Before the Trip starts the instructor will provide technical explanations and field descriptions that will be taken including also will provide pass codes for Rafting or for this white water rafting trip.
Especially the most popular term BOOM which means preparation for facing rapids.
Participants must be prepared to hold the rope on the raft to hold it so that it is not easily detached from the raft.
The position of the paddle must be one grip with the rope next to the raft, while the other hand holds the rope in the middle of your front.
Enough guides who work with paddles, without having to hold on to ropes, because they are familiar and professional.

The raft can be filled by 4 participants and a maximum of 6 participants if the 4 people behind and behind will be filled by the Rafting crew team.
In addition, in every field that is considered dangerous, the rescue team is ready for the rescue action. Keep in mind that if you are thrown from the raft you will be immediately chased to be saved.
What is certain is that the float will make you comfortable if you are released from the raft. This rescue theory will not lift your body, but it will pull the elevator jacket in the neck position.
Lift jackets or buoys have been designed with the ability to lift weights with the power to be able to lift loads weighing 180 kg.
If your weight is still an average of 70 kg, this float will never tear or break when you are saved.
Don’t worry, the organizer also doesn’t want to take the risk of paying for your insurance because this trip is insured.

After finishing at the finish location all equipment is collected: paddles, lifts Jackets and helmets are hung.
You can replace your wet clothes with a dry one in the dressing room, which you have prepared.
There is also a toilet available at the location, then the meal-eating program has been prepared with a menu that is definitely right for the garden atmosphere in the open hall.
After the meal is finished, you can relax for a while drinking coffee or drinking tea and enjoying makeshift snacks while looking at photos of your Rafting activities on the Lap Top.

The Trans 7 TV team with the host Ms. Rani shooting for the Jejak Petualang event
The latest information on the location of Rafting in Batu Mekar village has already received a visit from the Trans7 TV “Jejak Petualang” on February 18, 2017
With a beautiful host, Ms. Rani and her partner, MBA Odit, have covered the white water rafting location on the Jangkuk river location.
For those who are interested in watching this program, you can watch it on Trans7 TV after about 3 weeks of taking the video in the program “Follow in our footsteps. EXPERIENCE.”
You can watch MBA Rani rafting through the most extreme rapids, the Nyanyang Boom and at the end of the boat show, Rani turns upside down to cause a slight cut on her sweet lips.
Possibly exposed to the edge of the paddle, then MBA Rani looked for fish on the Jangkuk river with a Rafting team and after getting a few fish, the fish was cleaned on the riverbank near the Angel’s rapids.
After the caught fish are given spices then baked after being wrapped in banana leaves and eating it together with the Rafting crew.
Then what about you, curious ??? Let’s visit our location in Batu Mekar village, Lingsar district, West Lombok district.
Pusuk monkey forest is a very cool protected forest that is not far from the city of Mataram, only 15 km away and there is a border gate between the regencies of West Lombok (Lobar) and North Lombok Regency (KLU) inhabited by thousands of spoiled monkeys.
pusuk monkey forest just over to tourist
Pusuk after being arranged by the Lombok tourism agency
Why am I saying that because that is because monkeys here depend very much on everyone passing through the Pusuk area especially to tourists because this place has been used as a tourist destination.
Where each rotating travel agent operating in Lombok spills guests here but does not apply to all places because on the section of the road 1 km to the north from the peak Pusuk monkey is rather wild often threatening if visitors throw too long food by groaning while showing their canines.
Pusuk is interpreted as the peak of an uphill road by the people of Lombok because this place is at an altitude of 600 m above sea level which has a mountainous climate, cool and shady by tall trees from Pusuk. It looks lush and fertile valley that looks beautiful.
Pusuk Monkey Forest Are Between North Lombok and West Lombok Regency
Parking space is currently prepared by the local government
The vehicle is crowded because it is a connecting road across North Lombok regency with West Lombok district and Mataram city.
Along the winding road and its good construction there are separate huts which are the hangouts for those who want to take a short break to buy sweet palm wine or water made from palm sugar as well if the durian season will be a lot of durian fruit in on a table.
That is ready for sale or to eat in a place for you from the airport who want to go to Gili Trawangan will definitely cross this line or can pass the coast of Senggigi and Malimbu but some distance away.
A monkey family that always relies on its life from feeding the visitors
During the rainy season this path is very frequent landslides until landslide material closes the road until traffic jams occur as well as frequent falling trees and for that needs to be vigilant when crossing this path during the recent rainy season.
The shoulder of the road has been given violence by means of casted with concrete cement because previously only given sand, soil and stone material.
Then crushed with heavy equipment but when the rainy season eroded eroded the flow of water, besides that in every ravine was iron guard-real or iron if the vehicle might fall into the ravine, at night there are solar powered street lighting.
The status of the Telok Nara port Speed boat to Gili is the same as the Telok Kodek and almost we do not know the boundary between Telok Nara and Telok Kodek is only the people who live there who know exactly the area which is certainly located in the south of Telok Kodek.
The Telok Kodek harbor Speed boat to Gili which is now a port building permanent owned by the Bounty Cruises that has been built since 1997 but in the previous era there was no Fast boat operating from Bali to Gili Trawangan or Lombok so that now the Nara bay port already has a syahbandar building and has a large enough parking lot around the building office.
Teluk Nara Harbor
Bounty Cruises makes a permanent dock and has a passenger waiting room that is quite comfortable and adequate because Fast Boat has a capacity of 1,500 passengers.
After a lot of fast boats that operate up to dozens of agents who sell the same route at very competitive prices Bounty Cruises is eliminated and suffered a loss in operation because of the high operational costs until now the largest and most yellow Fast Boat is no longer operated.
Although in 2014 it got up again but disappeared again. Until now the name of the port in Telok Nara is still attached to the name Bounty port because while the Bounty Cruises has not yet operated Speed Boat which operates regularly to three Gili.
Uses it to be used as a temporary dock until now there has been a change with the construction of a dock owned by the transportation department south of the building Bounty has been built a special dock to serve as a port of Speed Boat.
Which is officially under the control of the transportation department and finally to the north of the Bounty building there is also a departure point for Speed Boat operating to 3 Gili, regarding the rules for the last location I have not received info from the manager there.

Sightseeing in Trawangan activities on the streets in seem trivial and are considered cheap or will not expel your wallet, in terms of doing this activity is not a matter of cost or how much we save on walking or cooler we say “sight seeing” is also a cool activity besides can stretch or flex the muscles.
By walking around you will be more careful in seeing the things we are going through as well as when we take a walk on Gili Trawangan.
When you turn to the left and right consisting of many hotel buildings and bungalows that might inspire how to organize: Parks, Houses, Gardens, Plants, terrace models and others in your home later after you have finished your vacation.

The walks on Gili Trawangan will give a different nuance than seeing the condition of your right and left activities here you can meet people from all corners of the world with behaviors that we might perceive differently and vice versa when they see you, the time right to carry out activities for walking is when the sun is not too hot or during the morning or evening.
The location in front of the Ombak Sunset hotel
I recommend you to come to the main streets of Gili Trawangan to the turtle breeding sites located on the east side of the island of Gili Trawangan.
The road to the right from the island’s public port, about 700 m to the north here consists of 2 breeding ponds measuring 4 x 4 meters placed in a building that resembles a hall and roofs of reeds covered with permanent construction of natural stone.
This is where turtle seedlings are raised until these turtle children are considered capable of living independently in the sea and after being released back to the big its habitat.
Down the beach while enjoying the afternoon breeze
Do not worry about the presence of turtles in Gili Trawangan because Lombok people and Gili people do not consume turtles to consume as food as on the island of Bali.
These turtle seeds are produced from turtles that go ashore to lay eggs and then the eggs are moved not far from the location of captivity and after hatching a small turtle is moved into the pond and given food at any time – fresh fish slices.
Then I recommended to walk or sightseeing in Trawangan in the afternoon towards the sun seat point to see or wait for the sunset when this place has been organized for a long time by managers who own land around their sun seat points forming open bars by putting chairs and tables on on white sand.
The atmosphere awaits sunset on Gili Trawangan
In this place you can order various types of drinks while relaxing waiting for the times when the sunset is accompanied by western music that is pounding loudly. In addition there is a recently popular one to visit, namely to visit the swing in front of the hotel Ombak Sunset.
The hotel intentionally placed a swing on the beach in a submerged position to make it look artistic when people posed for pictures on a swing consisting of 3 swings and one of them in the middle right in front of the restaurant.
There were 2 swings or double swings, this place was very popularly hunted by netizen who like to browse because this place is very often posted on Facebook or even on Instagram.
Queue at Ombak Sunset Hotel Gili Trawangan
The hotel swings of Sunset waves, Gili Trawangan, are now arguably successful in attracting the attention of travelers until now often seen people queuing long to wait their turn to pose on the swing or if a Malaysian traveler says “cradle”
Sightseeing Gili Trawangan does not have the authority to ban to anyone who wants to visit this place even though visitors do not stop by to shop or order drinks at Ombak Sunset restaurant, but among the hundreds of visitors who order drinks in the restaurant.
In addition, at the swing site, there are 2 photographers who are seen to wet their feet to the knees to take pictures on the swing, in the event that someone is interested in their shots, he can take a photo on the stand-by operator near the restaurant, regarding what price per photo will come here immediately and ask yourself.
Although in 2014 it got up again but disappeared again. Until now the name of the port in Telok Nara is still attached to the name Bounty port because while the Bounty Cruises has not yet operated Speed Boat which operates regularly to three Gili.
