Humbang Hasundutan, Administrative regency in North Sumatra, Indonesia.
Humbang Hasundutan is a regency in North Sumatra that covers 2,502 square kilometers of mountainous landscape divided into ten districts. Dolok Sanggul serves as the administrative center where government functions take place.
The regency was established on July 28, 2003 as a separate administrative division in North Sumatra. This creation resulted from regional reorganization efforts during that period in Indonesia.
The Batak Toba people form the foundation of this community and their traditions shape daily life throughout the region. Their customs influence everything from how houses are built to how families organize themselves.
The region sits at about 633 meters elevation with cooler temperatures between 14 and 27 degrees Celsius throughout the year. Visitors should prepare for the mountain climate and expect significant rainfall during certain periods.
Part of Lake Toba's southern shore lies within Baktiraja District, where the island of Simamora sits in the lake's waters. This geographic feature makes the region stand out among other highland areas in Sumatra.
