Gayo area's are each concentrated around a lake of river valley and are bordered by high, forested mountain slopes. Around Sea Freshwater Lake, you can see the Gayo people that farming and fishing. An activity that has become part of everyday life in communities around the lake.

The Gayo Highlands consist of the mountainous central part of Aceh, an isolated area which is cut of from the surrounding coastal plains by the rough peaks of Bukit Barisan. This is the habitat of about 250,000 Gayo, a dynamic population with an own language, lively traditional art and a high level of education.

The area around Danau Tawar (Lake Tawar) in the north is the most heavily populated, especially around the most important city of Takengon. Takengon is the capital of Central Aceh district. It sits to offer you a handful of rareness you must see.

The food is unique and it’s worth noting. Agro-tourism and activities around the Lake Laut Tawar (sea of fresh water) are the reasons to extend your stay. Not to mention the legend of a princess that turned into stone with her observable unseen guards.

It is far from nonsense when we mention in the first place that Aceh is truly a spiritual gateway to Indonesia. Danau Tawar is the most recreational area for the residents of Takengon, and it's also a resource of money.

Commodity grown in the highlands Gayo Gayo is coffee (Coffee arabica), which is very famous in Japan. If you want to feel the Aceh coffee directly from the source, you can find it in the Gayo region.
