North Kolaka Regency

North Kolaka Regency is an administrative region in Southeast Sulawesi divided into fifteen districts with Lasusua as its administrative center. The area contains numerous villages, both rural and urban settlements, spread across the landscape.

The region was established in 2003 when northern territories were separated from the original Kolaka Regency. This administrative change reshaped the governance structure of Southeast Sulawesi.

Multiple ethnic groups live here and practice their own customs and traditions in daily life. Visitors can observe this cultural diversity reflected in local festivals and community activities throughout the year.

Heavy rain falls here from November through July, so visitors should bring waterproof clothing and plan accordingly. Warm temperatures persist year-round, making light clothing practical for most visits.

The region sits at a higher elevation, creating a slightly cooler climate compared to many other parts of Indonesia. This altitude affects the vegetation and the overall appearance of the landscape here.
