Mount Bromo — Attraction in Java

it was an amazing experience, beautiful scenes. usually you will start your journey at 2am-3am with Jeep to sunrise view. lot of jeeps and traffic always happens . it took about 90min to reach sunrise rest area. most of the road are smooth but some areas are very rough (not recommended for people with back and knees issues) when you reach to rest area, you can rest at coffee shops and drink coffee and relax and wait for sunrise please wear warm clothing. it is very cold and windy. temperature is not the killer but the wind is. there are lot of locations to see sunrise with Mt bromo backdrop. so choose or ask your guide before. because later difficult to change location due to many people and packed. just my opinion enjoy the sunrise and take photos later because after sun come out it will be more pretty with the Mt bromo backdrop. careful with where you stand some places are very dangerous and just inches away from cliff. and always check weather sometimes if you are unlucky you will not see anything when cloudy days.

P.S the town that you will rest before going to Mt bromo sunrise is pretty cool and chill. try to explore if you can. many cool cafe and...

Bromo – What an Amazing Experience! Mount Bromo was honestly one of the coolest things I’ve done in Indonesia. If you don’t feel like paying for a pricey tour or the expensive entrance fee, there’s a little trick—just head to Cemara Indah Hotel. Between the buildings, there’s a small path that leads into a forest. Follow it down and you’ll eventually reach the sand area, which seriously looks like a savanna. It’s beautiful and feels totally out of this world.

From there, you can start the hike up to the crater. Halfway up there’s a staircase that takes you to the top, but don’t just stop there! If you walk along the rim on either side, the views get even better—and it’s way less crowded too.

If you’ve got the time, I’d recommend waiting until around 10:30 or 11 AM to go up. Most of the tour groups are already gone by then, so you get to enjoy the whole place with a lot more peace and space.

Such a fun little adventure—and honestly, not that hard of a hike. Definitely a...
