The Bromo-Tengger-Semeru National Park: The Best of Bromo for free - Mount Bromo

We have all seen, removed the iconic image of a sunrise filtering through a big cloud filled Caldera stoically puffing with Mount Bromo, Mount Batok and Mount Semeru. Beautifully packaged in a picture perfect shot, which is the essential Bromo-Tengger-Semeru National Park.

This park covers a whooping 800 square kilometers, 2,100 meters above sea level. What we see now is old again to around 450,000 years before, although part of a larger, ancient volcano.

For travelers, these volcanoes are the most photographed and the most well-known above all others is. The convenience and ease of Bromo visit draws in the masses, as there are no requirements for a grueling eight-hour hike you can see this spectacle. Unfortunately the popularity has brought an overwhelming cohort of unfair and exorbitant tourist usurer with him. I look forward to meeting you -. Tour operators, hoteliers and jeep driver

There is a terrible shame, because a visit Bromo should not be burdened with overpriced jeep trips and hotel rooms. The Bromo-Tengger-Semeru National Park is a pretty display the power of nature, and we should be able to marvel at, to explore, to look at and admire without a driver on a schedule. The landscape is in a jeep to breeze through to spectacular, and how bad it is for the majority of visitors to the true beauty of the complex to be missed, because. Of the reign of the fly-by Jeep tours

I implore all Bromo to visit and experience the magic of the park, and the best way to do that is to go. Bromo is easy to explore on foot, it is not just for those with a moderate level of fitness, but also a must, as the winter temperatures of the complex make for a pleasant stroll. All walks are used to Cemoro Lawang as a starting point.

Bromo

This volcanic cone emerges from the crater at 133m. Bromo is one of the most active volcanoes in Java currently while inside Bromo cone a turquoise acid lake, with acidity of up to 25%. Do not be fooled, the symptoms, how intrepid mountaineer told me: "It is enough acid to take off your hair."

Go straight past Cafe Java Hotel to the park office, take this road you down all the way to the sea of ​​sand and you will see Bromo advance. Walk straight to the staircase that leads to the edge upwards, just three kilometers and about 45 minutes.

It is possible to walk around the entire rim of the Bromo and to a viewpoint on the second adjacent volcanic cones, which takes about an hour. Although be careful, because the road is narrow and the safety barrier is in a bad state. Also, do not try the way, if the weather make less than perfect because the rain or strong wind for a walk too dangerous.

Sunrise in sight two on the mountain Penanjakan

off from 3:00 is plenty of time to make it from the viewpoint. Take the road past Cemara Indah leading hotel and just follow all the way to the top. The road runs through the village and is very rocky as you start the climb up Mount Penanjakan.

jeeps to view go two will stop halfway and park where they sink passengers. There is a small stable refreshments for sale, and locals offer rides operate the route. Distance is five kilometers away and takes about an hour and a half. Bring a warm jacket because it pretty cold not get Waiting for the Sunrise, and a flashlight is useful to miss the potholes in the road (flashlight app works well, too).

Mount Batok

The trail starts behind the toilet block. it is only soft volcanic ash and is very dusty. Three quarters of the way up, the ascent is very steep and unstable in some parts; follow the small red and white tied to the trees flags to make sure you stay on the path. In some places, holding small shrubs grabbing is necessary to rise.

At the top, make sure you mark where the road ends, because there is no mark, and you can easily disoriented and go down the wrong side. My friend made this mistake and was covered down in as much dust as he an offensive player wearing black makeup looked. It is a 45-minute climb to reach the top, bring sunscreen and plenty of water. Climbing Mount Batok is a challenge, but you'll be rewarded with stunning views of the plant.

Laotian Pasir

The Tengger Caldera is to have a sea of ​​sand is the only place in Indonesia. It really is something special, the dust observed impact on the vast area while horses galloping over the gray sand. Walking across the sand sea felt a lunar desert, throw towering to the waves of sand floating shadows and clouds with the crater rim as walking.

The road to and from Bromo, as already mentioned, is simple and fast, so really to immerse themselves in the landscape, there is a long eight kilometers on foot along the Laotian Pasir to Ngadas, from where you can then get to Malang or six kilometers from Jemplang to Ranu Pani go at the base of Semeru. Turn left where the paved road ends and circle the southern left side of Bromo

Semeru

Semeru is the highest volcano in Java at 3,676m and very active. there are mini-eruptions every 30 minutes. Semeru climbing is a tough three day trek, the advanced planning required and recommended only for experienced climbers. Guides are necessary and may in Ranu Pani.
