The 'Tando Bone' bungalows |
In the Pamona dialect 'Tando Bone' means 'Sandy Land-tongue'.
The Tando Bone hotel bungalows are located on the eastern shores of beautiful Lake Poso; the pure and enchanting highland lake amidst the sloping hills and primary rainforest of Central Sulawesi.
Tando Bone is reached by car from Tentena in half an
hour continued by a short 5 minute boat ride. The Tando Bone-site is 2 hours from Poso at the 'Gulf of Tomini',5 hours from Ampana, 7 hours from Palu, 4 hours from the National Park Lore Lindu and 11 hours from RantePao in
Tanah Toraja (that is, with public transport; the region can more comfortably and easier be explored by rental car).

Tando Bone lies.
