You need to walk about 2,5-3 hours for hiking depend on on your speed. You need to sleep in the local house with another visitors. At night freezing on December. You can have local people to bring your backpack if you don't want to bring for your own. Don't take any pictures once you arrived at the village. You need to take an honour to the leader of the village who will give you speach and ceremony to welcome you first.

From Labuan Bajo, it was a 3-hour drive, after it, we were put on a scooter for a 15-minute drive and then it just all started. 3 hours non-stop hiking up. Quiet hard but totally worth it! A beautiful setting where you see the locals put the hard work in drying the coffee beans every morning, very nice to see. Btw: I would strongly advise you to buy bring some coffee to your home country, it's amazing!

It's a great place to check on Waerebo Village. We started by our private small bus, and then continued a bit by motor bike then hike for 1.5 hours up. It's a bit slippery when wet so be very careful. My husband fell down and hurt his hips. DO NOT stay over night there - its very basic, You sleep in a big room w/20 people from all over the world on a mat and wooden floor. You eat together with them. There is only 2 bathroom and one squat toilet for all. No hot water so prepared to take a cold shower on a wet floor with a bucket. I can't even brush my teeth -saving my drinking water to brush in the morning. Did not sleep well, too hard and sleeping with 20 people from all over the world? Food served is OK rice and pieces of chicken. Morning - rice and omelette + their well known coffee. Can't wait to go back to decent hotel. Motor bike ride for 7 km(?) was good - reminds of school days. Do take a day trip and start early so you will be down by evening. Don't stay over night. All the foreigner NONE want to use the restroom or bathroom. It's ICKY....! The view is very nice, misty, foggy and there is a friendly brown dog called RUNNER. He goes out with the men when they visit the forest. Waerebo is beautiful but I would not stay a night there. You can make it in a day.

Che dire? A Waerebo si fa un'esperienza! Già dal basso nella zona si può godere di un panorama bellissimo, abbiamo mangiato in un ristorante all'aperto di cui non ricordo il nome immerso in una risaia con le galline che ci giravano intorno dove sembrava che il tempo si fosse fermato. Un posto magico. La salita per Waerebo inizia con un passaggio in scooter per qualche kilometro. Non so dove ho letto che se ne può fare a meno ma ritengo doveroso dire che invece è fondamentale perchè il tratto è parecchio in salita e anche soleggiato. La passeggiata nella montagna a tratti è davvero faticosa, parecchio ripida ed a tratti gradevole. Ci sono tante varietà di piante e fiori, tanti canti di uccelli e qualche scimmia. L'aria che si respira è fresca e piacevole. Sei davvero fuori dal mondo. Noi siamo arrivati praticamente di notte, la vista ti lascia comunque a bocca aperta. Abbiamo dormito in una capanna con 25 persone, è stato divertente ma faticoso perchè si dorme male e condividere il bagno con così tanta gente non è il massimo. Si mangia seduti a terra, cibi tipici o quasi, riso, uova... La mattina si fa un giro nel villaggio e si partecipa al rituale che ho trovato abbastanza turistico ma il posto merita davvero una visita. Non so se consigliare la notte o fare invece una visita dalla mattina alla sera, posso dire che noi la mattina eravamo veramente distrutti per non aver chiuso occhio, lascio a voi la scelta, però l'esperienza è stata comunque positiva.
