Explore Kerinci

Rawa Bento as known as The Amazon of Kerinci is full of life and feels like nature’s own secret garden.

In the early morning, a soft mist covers the water, and Mount Kerinci’s reflection appears like a painting. Birds are everywhere, herons walking slowly in the shallows, kingfishers darting past in flashes of blue, and ducks paddling across the calm water. Around the edges, you might see water buffalo grazing or even an otter slipping quietly into the reeds.​

Telun Berasap Waterfall is one of Kerinci’s most powerful sights. Fed by Lake Gunung Tujuh, it crashes into a deep gorge, throwing up thick mist that looks like smoke—hence its name, berasap, or “smoky.” The air is cool, the spray hits your face, and the roar of the water fills the jungle around you. It’s nature at full power.

Kerinci’s tea plantations are a sea of green stretching to the horizon. Set high in the cool mountain air of Kayu Aro, they’re among the highest and oldest tea estates in the world. Neat rows of bright green leaves roll across gentle hills, with Mount Kerinci standing tall in the background. Walking between the rows, you can smell the fresh, earthy scent of tea leaves, watch local farmers hand-pick the young shoots, and feel the calm, open space all around you.

HT Arabica Coffee is Kerinci’s highland brew at its best.

Grown in fertile volcanic soil, the beans have a smooth, rich taste with a touch of natural sweetness. Here, you don’t just drink the coffee you experience it. Sit in the middle of the coffee garden, surrounded by green trees and fresh mountain air, while your cup is brewed from beans grown right beside you.
