What to expect

  1. Punthuk Setumbu
    1h · Admission ticket included
    In the early beginning of your journey, we will go to Punthuk Setumbu hill. You will have a short 15–20 minute uphill trek awaits, guided by faint trail lights or flashlights in hand.

    Then with the breeze of morning air, you can wait until the time to witness the golden light of sunrise appearing behind the majestic Merapi and Merbabu volcanoes. On clear days, you can also catch the silhouette of Borobudur Temple emerges from the morning fog—an unforgettable and mystical sight that captivates both photographers and nature lovers alike.
  2. Borobudur Temple
    3h · Admission ticket not included
    The next experience is a guided walk around the Borobudur temple’s three main levels, which represent the stages of enlightenment. At the base, you can observe intricate stone carvings that tell stories from the life of Buddha and ancient Javanese teachings. As you ascend, you will follow a path of spiritual symbolism, eventually reaching the top, where 72 bell-shaped stupas surround a large central dome.

    When you reach the summit, you will be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views and a peaceful atmosphere that invites quiet reflection or awe-inspired photography. Many enjoy taking time to sit and absorb the beauty, serenity, and deep spiritual energy of the temple.
  3. Bunker Kaliadem Merapi
    1h · Admission ticket included
    It is an adrenaline-filled ride through the rugged terrain surrounding one of Indonesia’s most active volcanoes. The journey begins with hopping into a classic open-roof 4x4 jeep, driven by experienced local drivers who know the trails and volcanic history inside out.

    The adventure will take you across dusty lava fields, steep hills, and rocky paths carved by past eruptions. Along the way, travelers stop at iconic landmarks such as the Mini Museum Sisa Hartaku (Museum of My Remaining Treasures), which displays relics and ruins from the devastating 2010 eruption and visit Bunker Kaliadem, once a shelter that now serves as a reminder of the volcano’s immense power.

    Another highlight is the Alien Rock, a giant lava rock said to resemble a face, offering a striking photo opportunity. As the jeep bounces through scenic slopes, you will definitely enjoy panoramic views of Mount Merapi’s majestic peak—often shrouded in mist or cloud—creating a dramatic and unforgettable experience.
