Mount Kelimutu National Park is the smallest among six national parks in the stretch between Bali and the Nusa Tenggara Islands. Its size obviously does not matter much when it offers one of the most spectacular wonders that nature has to offer. There are three lakes on the mountain sharing the same name, Kelimutu, meaning ‘the boiling lake’. Each has its own colors and a local name. But all are believed to be the resting place of departed souls. Kelimutu lakes are unpredictable as to when and what color they will change into. Sometimes, the colors are blue, green, and black, and some other times they turn to white, red, and blue. The last time a traveler saw them, one was dark brown, just like a pond of chocolate. Previously, the east lake was red and the middle lake was blue. Lake Kelimutu is part of the Kelimutu National Park, presenting a highly aesthetic value and surreal experience. The national park’s highest point is 5,679 feet at Mount Kelibara (1,731 meters), and 5,544 feet high (1,690 meters) at Mount Kelimutu. It is a national park that protects 19 endemic and endangered animals, among which, the Floresian punai (Treron Floris), Wallacea owl (Otus Silvicola), Floresian Kancilan (Pachycephala Nudigula), Floresian Eagle (Spizeatus Floris), and Timorese tesia (Tesia Everetti).
