Goa Kotak Lombok
REVIEWS
Amazing viewpoint! The hike to get there is a bit challenging, but with good shoes, it’s easier—though doable even in flip-flops. We parked our car at the parking area, and the round trip takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Make sure to bring mosquito repellent and water, as the climbs are steep. Access is free, and there’s no one around—you’ll be the only ones in the middle of the cornfields.

Lovely hidden cave to see the sunset. Please take your trash with you. If you're riding a scooter up, this isn't for newbies. There's a bit of a hill climb on a dirt path to get there, and if you're not experienced enough on a scooter, it could end badly for you. Park further down and walk up. Might take you 15 - 20 minutes to walk up, depending on how far out you park. Definitely wear sturdier footwear. Don't recommend thongs or slides.

The cave itself is not a big attraction, but it's nice to climb up the hill and look around. I can imagine it's a great sunset spot. The road is a bit rocky, so you have to walk a bit if you have no off-road experience. Local people grow corn in the area, and we didn't find anything interesting other than the hill - and maybe some beaches without shadow. I saw some people from the cave snorkeling down there.

I don’t think it’s worth it to go here. It’s literally in the middle of nowhere and the road to get there is very muddy, bumpy and rough. It’s quite challenging to get there on the scooter. You go to the top of the hill and even there you find a bunch of plastic everywhere. Even inside the cave and close to the small window. Plastic is all over the place. It’s so frustrating to see the lack of awareness in the local communities, it feels you are walking on a trash bin all the time. Don’t go there unless you are in explorer mood otherwise, it takes too much time for nothing.

This is one of those places that not many people know of, but is absolutely stunning. Even though the road to this place is kind of challenging, it is easy enough to follow. You can ride a motorbike from Tanjung Aan towards the direction of Gepuruk(?), and go uphill until there's a hut. Just leave your bike there and climb the hill a little bit. At the end there is an opening. Enter that cave and from there you can see the ocean from above.
