Sulawesi,
Indonesia (Summer 1972)
Return to my mountaineering/trekking/travel webpage
I traveled to Indonesia for the first time in
August 1972. I had been attracted by the strange shape of the island of
Sulawesi and the fact that at that time it sounded very remote to me. My main
goal was to visit the Toraja region around Rantepao. During that trip I trekked from Mamasa (located north of the small coastal town of Polewali) to Rantepao in Toraja country, around Rantepao,
and finally from Rantepao to Palopo
on the Bone Bay. I also spent some time in Ujung Pandang (now Makassar)
and in Polewali.
