7 Days / 6 Nights
Our first Indonesian hikathon!
For this encounter we head for the
amazing Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park in
East-Java.
This will be our first Indonesian hikathon with
five amazing hiking days in a row. Be prepared
to hike about 80km in those five days, so being
physically fit is a prerequisite for this hikathon.

and we will work out the perfect
hike for you or your group.
Pick-up at Surabaya airport will be arranged before noon and we will be transferred to Tumpang which is
close to the National Park. We have lunch along the way and dinner at the homestay. You will receive a
briefing for the upcoming hikes.
The next morning we'll step into our hiking boots for the first hike which will lead us from Tampung to
Bromo. Those who still have some juice in the legs at the end of the day can climb Gunung Batok.
The third day starts with a recreational hike to the crater of Bromo. After that we will spend the day hiking
the Tengger Caldera before reaching the homestay again.
The next day we will be tranfered to Ranu Pane to start our 2 day trip to Semeru. We will pass the beautiful
lake Ranu Kumbolo and proceed until we reach the Kalimati campsite at the foot of the majestic Semeru.
Camping overnight.
The fifth day will start shortly after midnight so we can succeed in our attempt to summit Semeru latest by
6:00am. Before 9:00am we have to descend back to the Kalimati campsite where we can relax and have
breakfast. Later that day we're heading back the same way, but we camp overnight at Ranu Kumbolo.
The next day we will return to our starting point in Ranu Pane where transport will be waiting for us. We
will be transfered to Tumpang where we spend the night in homestay.
The last day we visit a few wonderful waterfalls in the National Park before our transfer back to Surabaya
airport.
