Itinerary

1. We will pick you up at 05:00 at your accommodation in Malang city. Your route is via Tumpang village and the southwestern slope of Bromo's caldera. The drive takes about 2.5 hours. After your arrival at mount Penanjakan, local snacks with hot coffee and tea are waiting for you. Then it is a very short walk to the actual viewpoint. A surreal beauty. The stunning black volcanic ashen Sand Sea, mount Bromo and mount Batok with mount Semeru shadow - Java's highest and one of its most active volcanoes - in the background are quite some views.

About Malang

Malang, in the highlands of East Java, is a cool hill city of Dutch-era streets, colourful hillside villages and volcanoes close by.

Malang lies about 450 metres up on a plateau in East Java, cooler than the coast, ringed by mountains including Mount Arjuno and the Tengger massif. The Dutch developed it as a garden city, and the centre keeps tree-lined avenues and old colonial buildings around the Tugu monument and the Alun-Alun Merdeka square. Two painted kampungs, Jodipan and Tridi, climb a hillside along the river.
