Hiking at Mount Ijen
Hiking and trekking in Mount Ijen is an adventure that takes you into the heart of one of Indonesia’s most extraordinary volcanic landscapes. The trek typically begins in the early hours of the morning, covering a 3-kilometer trail that ascends steeply to the crater rim. As you make your way up, the air cools down, often dropping below 10°C (50°F), so warm clothing is recommended. The climb, which takes about 1.5 to 2 hours, is rewarded with a unique sight— the mesmerizing blue flames of sulfuric gases burning at the crater. At dawn, the view transforms as the turquoise acid lake becomes visible, set against the rugged volcanic landscape. The best time to experience this remarkable trek is during the dry season, from April to October, when the weather is clear and the trails are safer.
