To achieve this we can climb the mountain from the two places, namely: the Village of King Berneh (Spirit Mountain) and the town of Berastagi.

The trail to the summit is very clear. Along the way there are no special features, only in the waist of the mountain there is a small cave that jutted into one meter. Then entered a dry river, continue through the bamboo forest area before entering the actual forest. From this area there is a path pioneered the hill turn right towards Pertektekan.

Enters the plants began to lower peak and begin to enter the gravel and rocky areas that are not so compact. The path is not clear and there are good you take care of this area.

Besides scenery at the top of the crater and the views of the city at the foot of the mountain terrain is also found that regular hot water bath visited by local tourists are spa-debuk sidebuk Lau.

Aside from the two paths in the mentioned above, there is another route Sibayak munuju mountaintop. ie 54 points. This point is located in the region tongkoh (burnt corn), located in Medan-Brastagi highway, the route in line 54 is a challenging route. A steep slope is a challenge that must be in the past the climbers, other than that its still very beautiful forest. On the path to the summit met many of the rattan plant, other than that this route is much in use for diksar Mapala members in Medan and surrounding areas. After passing through a shady forest, then we will
encounter rocky areas (almost munuju peak). For spring, the line was only
