Lombok's hills are excellent tourist destinations that should not be missed. Here are some unique and fantastic hills in Lombok as summarized by Duniabooking. You will not be disappointed by any of the viewpoints presented!

1.  Selong Hill, Sembalun
Bukit Selong is located in Sembalun Lawang Village, which is in the Beleq Hamlet area, Sembalun District, East Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara. You can reach the top of this hill by following the path that runs directly behind Beleq Hamlet. The location is only about 50 meters from Beleq Hamlet, so getting to Selong Hill takes little time.

This trip only takes about three minutes if you start from Beleq Hamlet. The route is not difficult because there are only a few steps to climb to get here. The majestic Pergasingan Hill greeted every pair of eyes that arrived at the summit. The extent of the residents' horticultural plantations can be seen clearly from the top of Selong Hill at an elevation of 1800 meters above sea level.

2. Nanggi Hill
Nanggi Hill is a tourist destination located approximately 2,300 meters above sea level (masl). Tracks that continue to climb present a challenge to those who enjoy heights. Not bad, the height is almost the same as Pelawangan Rinjani. The view is also stunning. Hikers can see Mount Rinjani from the top of this hill.

3. Merese Hill, Pujut
Merese Hill dominates the landscape between Serenting Beach and Tanjung Aan Beach. Specifically in Pujut, Central Lombok. This particular hill is quite broad. It doesn't take long to get there, only about 20 minutes of walking. 

Even though the path is not steep and is relatively easy, those planning to climb Merese Hill should wear comfortable shoes. When you reach the top, all you can see is a stretch of blue sea water and massive rocks. Bukit Merese is a great place to watch the sunset in addition to taking photos.

4. Anak Dara Hill
Anak Dara Hill is one of the highest hills in Sembalun Village, East Lombok. This hill also has the beautiful natural beauty of Lombok. This tourist destination only recently opened in 2015. Even though it is still considered a new tourist destination, this hill has become a fairly well-known destination in Lombok.

No surprise, given that this hill's natural beauty rivals that of other climbing areas. This hill is also interesting as a place to try a challenging climb. It takes about two to three hours to reach the top, which is 1850 meters above sea level.

5. Pergasingan Hill
To get to one of Lombok's hills, you must first travel to Sembalun Village in East Lombok in a motorized vehicle. It takes three hours to travel from Mataram City to Sebalun Village. When you arrive in Sembalun Village, you must do soft trekking for two hours to the top of the hill. The unique natural scenery at the top of Pergasingan Hill will make up for your tiredness from the climb. Don't miss the sunrise or sunset from this vantage point!
