Aceh !! who does not know the province at the northern tip of the island of Sumatra was once devastated by the Tsunami hit.

Although many areas are destroyed, the natural beauty of the province nicknamed Serambi Mecca can still be enjoyed. Beautiful natural panorama, one of which you can enjoy in Mount Geurutee. This mountain area is the best sunset viewing spot in Aceh.

Geurutee is a mountain located on the border between Aceh Jaya District and Aceh Besar, about 1 Hour 30 Minutes from Banda Aceh City, the capital of Aceh province.

This mountain became the national road to the south west of Aceh. Geurutee is also part of Ulu Masen forest which is now crowned as one of the oxygen supply forests to the world. This mountain has a very deep ravine and directly adjacent to the Indian Ocean coast. Characteristic of Geurutee is a monument shaped as a sign that visitors are in the highest mountain climbing position. From that place, anyone can see the natural beauty that spread wide.

The journey to Puncak Geurutee must pass Mount Paro and Kulu. Vehicles will cross the ramp, steep derivations, and sharp turns. On the side of the road, there are cliffs and high cliffs that often landslides during the rainy season so the rider must be careful. Kalu again durian season, then you can enjoy a lot of durian sold on the left and right of the road. Because the mountain area is indeed a lot of durian gardens owned by residents.

Being a national road trajectory to the western and southern regions of Aceh, the area of ​​Mount Geurutee is often a transit place for those who travel far. But there is also a deliberate coming here to enjoy the ocean view from the edge of the cliff. They enjoy the beauty of this mountain panorama, while sipping aceh coffee. Along the mountain area is indeed a lot of coffee stands that provide typical coffee Aceh. In addition to selling coffee, these stalls also sell food at a fairly cheap price.

The deep blue sea, and beautiful hillside scenery. Even if the weather is sunny and the sun begins to fall to the western horizon, you certainly will not let the sunset pass away.

That is Geurutee, a peak experiencing a perfect marriage between steep mountains, rice fields, gardens, seas, forests, valleys, canyons, and exotic bays. Because of that charm, then, people take advantage of Geurutee as a backbone of his life through selling coffee, tea, food, and various soft drinks as a complement to relax.

Moreover, the peak Geurute not so far from downtown Banda Aceh. It's about 72 kilometers or an hour's drive. If you want to go to the west and south shores of Aceh surely cross this region. After Aceh was hit by a tsunami, USAID rehabilitated and reconstructed the road infrastructure to Geurutee that was flaked and ravaged. Not half-hearted! The quality of the asphalt road is amazing: the equivalent of the Formula One circuit road (F1)! Mmm ... but be careful if you drive in the area! If we excited press the gas pedal without control, your car speedometer might already be at the number of 160 kilometers per hour. Fantastic!!!
