ITINERARY

Hike a full day around Mt. Bromo - start Malang

It is a 2 hours drive to Jarak Ijo village, starting in Malang. A good time to start is at 5 o'clock in the morning. The village is positioned just outside the National Park Bromo-Tengger-Semeru boundaries. A local guide, who really speaks limited English, will take you through vegetable fields and rain forest. It will mainly be the distance that is tiring you as the hardest part will be Mt. Kursi, that you reach after 4 to 5 hours. At the top of Mt. Kursi it is time to have breakfast picnic style. Picturesque views will be your special friends.
Next up, another 2 to 3 hours walk to reach the volcano for which you got excited in the first place: Mt. Bromo. Once seen and explored, you will be rolling from the sandy volcano into the Sea of Sand. Your way back is via Mt. Batok and a green savanna. If time is sufficient, you can pay Pelangi waterfall a visit. After some local food in Tumpang village, you will be heading back to Malang.
