Sharing/Open Trip Raung Volcano Tour 2025

Note: You must arrive at Kalibaru one day before the hiking schedule.

Hotel to Basecamp:

We will pick you up at your hotel in the early morning and transfer you to our basecamp at Sumber Arum village, which is the starting point for your trek.

Arrive at the Base Camp:

Meet your guide at the base camp. Your guide will provide a briefing about the trek, safety measures, and essential details.

Take some time to check your gear, grab a snack, and prepare for the trek.

Start the Trek to the First Camp:

Begin your hike towards the first camp located at an altitude of 1,500-2,000 meters.

The trek is relatively moderate and should take 5-6 hours to reach the first base camp. Along the way, you'll pass through lush tropical forests, streams, and possibly some wildlife.

As you ascend, the landscape begins to change, and you’ll get your first views of the surrounding area.

Set Up Camp at the First Camp:

Arrive at your first camp, where you’ll rest for the night. The camp is typically simple but functional, with tent setups and a basic cooking area.

Enjoy a simple dinner of rice, vegetables, and protein (such as chicken or fish), which is commonly served at the camp.

Rest for the Night:

Relax, talk to your guide about the trek ahead, and enjoy the quiet surroundings.

Overnight at the first camp.

Wake Up & Start the Ascent:

Begin your ascent to the summit at around 2:00 AM. The trek is steep and challenging, covering about 2,000 meters of elevation gain to reach the top.

Upon reaching the summit (around 3,344 meters), you’ll be treated to breathtaking views of the vast crater, the surrounding volcanic peaks, and the beautiful coastline of Banyuwangi in the distance.

Take a short break, enjoy the sunrise, and have some light snacks or packed food that you've carried along.

Begin the Descent:

After spending around 1–2 hours at the summit to enjoy the views and take photos, start your descent back down. The descent typically takes around 4-5 hours, so it’s crucial to move carefully to avoid injury.

Arrive Back at the First Camp:

Once you return to the first camp, you’ll be able to rest and enjoy a well-deserved dinner.

Your guide will check in with you to ensure you're feeling okay and give any necessary advice for the next day's descent.

Rest for the Night:

After the long day, rest up for the night. Enjoy a hearty dinner and relax in the peaceful environment at the camp.

Wake Up & Breakfast:

After breakfast, pack up your camp and prepare for the final descent.

Begin the Descent to Sumber Arum Village:

The final descent will take around 4-5 hours. As you descend, you'll pass through lush jungle, streams, and possibly some other scenic spots. The terrain will gradually level out as you approach the village.

You’ll be able to take your time, as this is the final stretch of the trek.

Arrive at the Base Camp (Sumber Arum):

Once you arrive back at Sumber Arum village, you can take a rest, hydrate, and enjoy some light refreshments.

Depending on the time, you might have lunch at the base camp or head back to Kalibaru Station.
