Explore the the natural phenomena of Mount Bromo

We will walking up the peak of Pananjakan to enjoy the natural beauties such as the spectacular sunrise over Mount Bromo. We leave the hotel in the very early morning and arriving at the crater rim in the dark and looking down at the luminous glow of the sulphur, then sitting on the narrow ledge watching the sun come up is a classic experience, but this area also has a lot more to offer: Enjoy The world’s best mountain scenery, explore the spectacular Sea of Sand on a horseback or by foot, that fills the caldera of Tengger mountains.

We will meet the local Tengger people, wrapped in cloaks riding around on their high stepping ponies. This area is holy to the local Tenggerese who are the only remaining Hindus in Java and thought to be the remnants of the once powerful Majapahit empire. The dawn pilgrimage to the summit is an ancient tradition.

For the really keen walkers of a challenging mountain trek, we can take you to attempt the peak of Mount Semeru at 3,676 m above sea level, an active volcano which is the highest in Java. During the trekking, we pass over the beautiful high altitude volcanic lakes, tropical rain forest, the grass land and the sub-alpine forest.
