Hiking and Climbing Mount Merbabu

The climb of Mount Merbabu can be done by several route or trails:

The Merbabu Via Selo hiking trail is currently a relatively more crowded route than the other lines. Beautiful scenery with savannas that spread wide make the trip more enjoyable. Coupled with this route, the nearby neighboring Merbabu Mountain, Merapi, can be seen clearly.

At the beginning of the climb, climbers will be greeted by a welcome gate from Gunung Merbabu National Park. Entering the forest gate, the atmosphere of the left and right lanes is filled with pine trees and leaks, in the afternoon it will feel cool. The road is still quite gentle for a 15 minute journey. After walking 1-1.5 hours arrived at post 1 (Dok Malang). This post is still in the thick of trees.

After post 1, the track has not felt quite steep, there is one climb that is quite steep and at its peak is a shadow post. Only after walking 20 minutes from the shadow post climbers will arrive at post 2 (Pandean) the distance from 1-2 posts is practically long.

Furthermore, the distance between posts 2 and 3 is not far away. About 45 minutes walk, climbers will arrive at post 3 (Watu Tulis) the scenery here is quite beautiful with Merapi which is quite clearly visible when the weather is not foggy. Coupled with the lush edelweiss trees.

Towards heading 4 (Sabana 1) climbers will be faced with a fairly steep path. lanes with clay dominance easily make your steps slip. You have to be more careful across this section.

Sabana 1 is one of the interesting places for camping, its flat place and beautiful scenery may be the reason for the climbers to choose to set up their tent here. But the wind in this place is quite fast, even more so it is prone to storms.

From savanna 1 to heading to savanna 2 (post 5) it does not take a long time. Only about 40 minutes. The path is in the form of a steep slope, although not as tight as between post 3 to post 4 but the wind is quite strong at night. After reaching the top of the hill we will walk down and arrive at post 5 (savanna 2). Although the wind exposure still feels great but in my opinion this is the best place to set up the tent.

If you want to enjoy the sunrise at the top, you should start waking up at 3 am to prepare breakfast and climb to the top. Travel time to the top is around 1 – 1.5 hours. If you are lazy to wake up in the morning, sunrise can be enjoyed on the east hill of savanna. The advantage of this route is that sunrise can be enjoyed along the hiking trail.

Note: for climbers who start from Selo, water needs must be taken from the bottom/basecamp because all the way to the summit there is no water source.

Via Thekelan

Climbing from Pos Tekelan begins with passing fields and pine forests. From here we can see a very beautiful view towards Mount Telomoyo and Rawa Pening.

At the Pending Post we can find a spring, we will also find a small river (Kali Sowo). Before reaching Pos I, we will pass Pereng Putih and must be careful because the roads are very steep. Then we must pass through the dry river, from here a very beautiful view down to see the city of Salatiga especially at night.

From Pos I we will pass heterogeneous forest towards Pos 2, heading to Post 3 the path starts to open and the road starts to climb steeply. We will cross Mount Pertapan, the blast of strong winds is felt here, especially when in the open area. We can take refuge in Watu Gubug, a hollow stone that 5 people can enter. It is said that it is the gateway to the kingdom of supernatural beings.

If there is a storm we should not continue the trip because it will be very dangerous. Approaching post 4, we have to cross Mount Watu Tulis, the path is rather steep and lots of small sand and gravel that makes the track slippery, strong winds carry dust and sand so we must be ready to close our eyes when there are strong winds. Post 4 is at the top of Mount Watu Tulis with an altitude of 2,896 masl, also called Pos Pemancar because at its peak is a Radio Transmitter.

Heading to Post 5, this post is surrounded by beautiful hills and cliffs. We can go down to Condrodimuko’s crater. Here there are springs, distinguish between drinking water and sulfur water.

The journey continues by passing a very steep incline with ravines on the left and right sides. This path is called the Satan Bridge. Then we will arrive at the intersection, go left towards Syarif Peak (Pregodalem Mountain) and go right to the top of the elongated Kenteng Songo (Kenteng Songo Mountain – Selo Hiking Trail).

From the top of Kenteng songo, we can look at Mount Merapi with its peak that puffs up smoke at any time, looking very close. Westward, Sumbing Mountain and Sindoro Mountain look very clear and beautiful. Closer still looks Mount Telomoyo and Mount Ungaran. From a distance to the east looks Mount Lawu with its elongated peak.

Towards this Kenteng Songo Peak the path is very dangerous, besides being narrow and only 1 meter wide, on the left and right side there are also very steep rocky ravines. A very strong wind is ready to push climbers at any time. At this peak there are hollow mortar stones with 9 numbers according to paranormal vision.

The wekas route is the shortest route (6-7 hours of climbing to the summit) so there is rarely a flat track stretching. The path to heading to the Post 1 is quite wide with the underlying rocks. Along the way, you will find fields of typical highland people planted with Onions, Cabbage, Carrots, and Tobacco, also can be found rabbits whose feces are used as fertilizer. The route to heading Post 1 is a fairly uphill path with a travel time of 2 hours.

Post 1 is a plain with a flat land as a resting place. Around this area there are still many stalls and houses. After post 1, the trip still passes through the fields, then enters the pine forest. The travel time to heading Post 2 is 2 hours, with a steep uphill lane.

Pos 2 is an open and flat place, which can be used to build many tents. On Saturdays, Sundays and holidays Pos 2 is widely used by teenagers to camp. So that in those days many local people came to sell food. In this area there is a water source that is channeled through large pipes that are accommodated in a tub.

From Pos 2 there is a dead end lane that leads to a river that is used as a source of water for the people around Wekas ​​to the surrounding villages. This path follows the flow of water pipes along the edge of a cliff that leads to the river flow below the crater. There are two very steep rivers which form multi-level waterfalls, making it a very extraordinary sight.

After the post 2 lanes began to open until it met the intersection of the Kopeng line which was above post 5 (Watu Tulis), the Kopeng line. From this intersection to the Helipad post it only takes 15 minutes. The journey continues by passing very steep slopes and ravines on the left and right sides. This incline is called the Devil’s Bridge. Then we will arrive at the intersection, go left towards Syarif Peak (Pregodalem Mountain) and go right to the top of Kenteng Songo (Kenteng Songo Mountain).

Via Suwanting

The journey begins with a view of the residents’ fields on the right and left side. Fields in the form of mountain plants. The atmosphere is very cool and the path tends to be flat a bit uphill. The journey from the basecamp to Post 1 is only 30 minutes – 45 minutes. Before going to Post 1 we will meet with pine forests.

After leaving Post 1 and the pine forest then we find a path heavier than before. The path is dominated by lush vegetation and uphill paths. From Post 2 to Post 3 it takes around 90 minutes (1.5 hours).

In Post 2 this is usually used by climbers to set up tents. In this post we can also see the view of Mount Merapi. The journey continues to Post 3 takes about 2 hours. The path will be much more difficult than before. Before arriving at Post 3 we will find a water source called “Sendang Dampo Awang”.

In Post 3 this is also a favorite place to set up tents. From Post 3, the beautiful view of Mount Sindoro-Sumbing, Merapi and several other mountains was faintly visible. The journey to the top of Kenteng Songo or Triangulation we will pass through several hills with lush grass plants. These hills are called “savannas”. From Post 3 to the summit we will pass through savanna 1, savanna 2, and savanna 3. Savanna via the Suwanting path is as beautiful as the Selo path. Only 1.5 hours for the summit attack from Post 3.

Merbabu Mountain

Mount Merbabu is a dormant volcano, which offers magnificent views of central Java and the surrounding volcanoes. Merbabu has 3 peaks, namely Kenteng Songo in the middle (3.142 meters), Suwanting on the left (3.142 meters) and Sharif (3.119 meters). The Merapi is visible from Kenteng Songo. Sindoro and Sumbing visible from the others.

Two known moderate eruptions occurred in 1560 and 1797. The 1797 event was rated 2: Explosive, on the Volcanic Explosivity Index. An unconfirmed eruption may have occurred in 1570.

Geologically recent eruptions originated from a northwestern-south southeasterly fissure system that cut across the high-volume and high-volume lava flows from Kopeng and Kajor craters on the northern and southern flanks, respectively.

Mount Merbabu is a great hike in Central Java offering superb views over Mount Merapi.

Several routes exist to the summit, I chose to hike from Selo, which is the closest route from Solo or Yogyakarta.

Mount Merbabu is protected by a national park status, which involves special regulation that applies to hikers. In this article, I will explain how to work around them as a foreigner hiking independently.

The hike from Selo

The hike is pleasant and not difficult, at least by the month of August which was quite dry. It took me 3h40 to reach Triangulasi summit from Selo basecamp. Spent one hour on the summit and descended in 1h40.

The track goes through 3 successive rest posts, then leaves the forest and reaches a first camping ground called Sabana 1 . After a reasonably short but steep hike you reach the second camping ground ( Sabana 2 ) then another steep section and you reached Triangulasi summit at 3145m.

Despite setting off at 9AM (time to find companions and register), Merbabu remained clear of clouds throughout the day. Clouds got denser and denser around Mount Merapi as the day was advancing though.

You can reasonably hope for perfectly clear views of Merapi around sunrise. As it is now not possible to hike at night, the only options for this is to camp (and so pays another day of NP entrance fee).

Also when I reached the summit I could barely see Mount Sumbing, Sindoro, Prau because of clouds.

Great information about the hike can be found on Gunung Bagging .

The hiking track from Selo is shown in Maps.Me.

Budget wrap-up

• National Park permit : 150’000Rp for one day (weekday, increases to 225’000Rp on weekends and public holidays. You will likely want to avoid these days unless you enjoy crowds).
• Flat fee for hiking and insurance : 5’000 + 2’000Rp.
• Entrance ticket to basecamp : 5’000Rp.
• Motorbike parking in basecamp : 5’000Rp.
• Group one-time fee for ranger service in case of evacuation : 15’000Rp.
• Packed lunch, biscuit and water bought at the basecamp : 26’000Rp.

Total cost of the hike itself (one day) : 208’000Rp.

To this, one should add :

• Permits for my local companions : 34’000Rp.
• Night in Selo Homestay : 200’000Rp.
• Motorbike rental from Solo : 85’000Rp/day (+ gas).

How to register online to hike Mount Merbabu in 2022 ?

You cannot anymore just show up at the trailhead, register for hiking and hike. A mandatory registration online has been put in place since a few years.

Basically the most difficult part of this hike today is to register…

The issue is that no one really thought about the case of foreign tourists using that system (starting by translating the booking website in English !). My guess is that it was assumed that foreigners would mostly hike through travel agency.

Few rules to know

• All hikers must register beforehand on the national park website . Registration shows up immediately on the rangers system so it’s possible to register on site provided that the hikers cap has not been reached yet.
• There is a daily cap on the number of hikers allowed. This cap is often reached in weekends and public holidays. The number of remaining spot can be checked ( here , or go to the National Park website and click on CEK KUOTA link on the upper horizontal menu). There is not specific cap for foreign hikers as for Gunung Semeru for instance.
• Hikers can only enter the trail (at least in Selo) between 8AM and 5PM. It is now impossible to hike in the middle of the night to enjoy the sunrise. Camping is mandatory to enjoy the sunrise from the mountain.
• It is impossible to register online for 1 or 2 people . The booking must be done for 3 people minimum. Members of one group can nonetheless exit at different days or time.
• Each group must report everything it brings up and it is checked when exiting. This is to make sure no trash is left on the trail.

Registering online to hike Merbabu

In this section, I will assume that you are already a party of 3 people or more. If you are alone or two, I’ll explain how to work around the rule in the next section.

• First step is to check that there are still spots available on your date to hike. Go to the NP website and look for CEK KUOTA link. At the time of this article’s writing, the direct link is this .
• Now go to the NP website homepage, click on the big ‘BOOKING ONLINE’ blue button.
• On the next page click on ‘BOOKING NOW’.
• On the next page look for ‘JALUR PENDAKIAN SELO’ (Selo hiking route) and click on the orange button under the picture reading ‘Lihat Detail’.
• On the next page click on ‘BOOKING SEKARANG’.
• On the next page, tick the two boxes and click on the orange button ‘DAFTAR’ on the bottom.
• Select on the calendar the date you want to hike, if it reads ‘PENUH’ in red it means that all spots have been taken already.
• Jumlah Hari Pendakian (Number of hiking days) : select ‘1 Hari’ (1 day) if you don’t camp, ‘2 Hari’ (2 days) if you camp.
• Jalur Turun (Descending route) : it seems that you can only pick ‘Jalur Pendakian Selo’.
• Nama Ketua Rombongan : Full name as per ID of the group leader.
• NIK Ketua Rombongan : your NIK if you are Indonesian. If you are foreigner, input 1360000000000001 (must be 16 digits, adjust on the number of 0 if necessary).
• NO. Telepon : Phone Number.
• NO. Telepon : Phone Number of the person to contact in case of emergency.
• Email : an email. You need to have access to this email as booking code will be sent there.
• Usia : age of the leader.
• Berat Badan : weight of the leader.
• Alamat : your adress.
• Provinsi (sesuai KTP ) : if you are a foreign tourist, pick Jawa Tengah.
• Kota/Kabupaten (sesuai KTP ) : if you are a foreign tourist, pick Kabupaten Boyolali.
• Kota/Kabupaten Domisili : if you are a foreign tourist, pick Kabupaten Boyolali.
• Jumlah Rombongan : pick 3 or more depending on the size of the group.

At this stage, you need now to enter the following information for all group members including the leader :

• Nama (sesuai KTP ) : full name as per ID.
• NIK : for Indonesian input your NIK. For foreigners input 1360000000000001 for the first foreigner, 1360000000000002 for the second and so on.
• Alamat sesuai KTP : your adress.
• Kabupaten/Kota domisili : if you are a foreign tourist, look for Kabupaten Boyolali. It is sorted first by province, then by alphabetical order. If you are on your phone you need to go through all the kabupaten of Sumatra, then DKI Jakarta, then Banten, Jawa Barat and eventually Jawa Tengah. If on laptop you can search for Boyolali.
• Usia : age.
• BB (kg) : weight.
• No. HP : phone number.

Once this is done, click on the button ‘Hitung Biaya Tiket’ in the bottom. This will be wrong as the website doesn’t handle foreigners and their special pricing.

At this point, you may have to click on another button but you should received an email entitled : Kode OTP Konfirmasi Pemrosesan Data Booking .

You enter this OTP code to the platform and then you receive another email entitled Informasi Kode Booking Sementara . You enter this booking code to the platform and you shall receive a final email entitled Informasi Booking Objek Wisata Jalur Pendakian Selo .

You can now go to the trailhead to pay your tickets !

How to register if you are alone or 2

You have 2 options :

• Hire a porter and/or a guide to make a 3 people party. Then register together as explained above.
• The best case would be to find 2 or 1 other people unregistered directly at the trailhead. That’s what I did but I don’t guarantee it will work every day.
• Registering is quite annoying to do especially on a phone. People may not be willing to go through that again.
• Each group is responsible for its own trash. People may be afraid of risking a fine by registering with you and then splitting ways.

As you can see, nothing is impossible (I’m the living proof of it) but the best options is definitely to form a 3 people group before registration. It’s not an issue of you are all foreigners.

Practical tips

I reached Selo from Solo by rented motorbike but this can also be done from Yogyakarta. In Solo I fully recommend Arya Trans Solo to rent a bike (https://www.google.com/maps?cid=13377654472086663099).

Solo is closer than Yogyakarta and has much more relaxed traffic.

In Selo, I slept in Homestay Wijaya. The streets going from the main road to Selo basecamp is full of homestays. I picked this one because the owner was outside and smiled at me.

Price was 200’000Rp per night per room (2 people). Hot shower available, good mattress and blankets. I didn’t compare prices, there are maybe cheaper options in the street.

Otherwise you can sleep at the basecamp in dormitory for way cheaper.

Perhaps I was lucky.

Lastly, on Strava’s global heatmap you can see a slight deviation from the route that avoids the official entry point, starting slightly to the West.

Hiking Mount Merbabu: Incredible Beauty With Amazing Hiking Trails

Who misses climbing the mountain? After the Covid-19 pandemic ends, let's immediately pack your climbing equipment. Carry the carrier and let's head for Mount Merbabu.

Mount Merbabu is the third highest mountain in Jawa Tengah Province after Mount Slamet and Mount Sumbing. The mountain is 3,145 meters above sea level in three districts in Jawa Tengah, namely Magelang, Boyolali, and Semarang. The entrance aka the starting point of climbing Mount Merbabu can also go through these three districts.

There are five official hiking trails opened to climb Mount Merbabu. Namely the Selo-Boyolali, Suwanting-Magelang, Wekas-Magelang, Cuntel-Semarang, and Thekelan-Semarang lines.

Each hiking trail on Mount Merbabu presents different challenges and landscapes but is still charming. For example, the Selo trail, Boyolali which became the most favorite path of climbers because it has a very large savanna.

There is something to note when climbing Mount Merbabu via Selo. As of February 1, 2020, Gunung Merbabu National Park Hall (BTNGMb) imposed a registration system via online booking. So that the registration of climbing on the spot can no longer be done.

Meanwhile, other trails outside Selo, such as Suwanting-Magelang, Wekas-Magelang, Cuntel-Semarang, and Thekelan-Semarang, have not applied for online climbing registration. So there, there can still be registered on the spot.

How to register online is also easy. The head of the group can access the tngunungmerbabu.org site. After filling in the data of all members of the group, climbers will get a unique registration code.

Well, this unique registration code can be used to check or change data if there is a change. After that, a registration form appears that can be saved and must be brought when re-registering at the registration counter on the Selo hiking trail.

The fare of climbing tickets of Mount Merbabu is divided into entrance ticket tickets and activities starting from 2,500 IDR for groups. The amount of admission on a normal day is different from a holiday. Plus, there is insurance worth 1,000 IDR.

The length of the hiking trail via Selo reaches 5.63 kilometers with travel time up to Kenteng Songo Peak of about 8 hours 15 minutes. The average temperature of Mount Merbabu via Selo during the day is 15-21 degrees Celsius and at night can reach 3-8 degrees Celsius. Pretty cold, right?

The climbing point will start the Selo Resort Office with a travel time of 90 minutes to get to Post 1 Dok Malang. Once passing at the climbing gate, climbers are directly invited into the typical forest of Mount Merbabu.

After arriving at Post 1 Dok Malang, the climb can be continued to Simpang Macan for about 45 minutes. Here, climbers can unwind for a moment while straightening their legs before continuing to Post 2 Pandean. Although 'only' is 421 meters away, the path to Post 2 is very draining.

On this path, climbers will meet many fauna/animals typical of Mount Merbabu. Among them are lutung budeng / black lutung, long-tailed monkeys, partridges, eagles, and some types of birds. If lucky, climbers can see primates that are priority animals on Mount Merbabu.

The journey can be continued to Post 3 Slate which is at an altitude of 2,593 meters above sea level. Here, climbers can camp or set up tents because the area is so large. The view from Post 3 Slate is also very charming. Climbers can see Mount Merapi from a distance.

However, it would be nice if the road for a moment to Savanna 1. Yes, the specialty of climbing Mount Merbabu is in the beauty of the savanna that is so extraordinary. Unmitigated, Mount Merbabu has two very large savanna fields. The location is not so far away, the road is uphill about 30 minutes.

Indeed, to arrive at Savanna 1 of Post 3 Slate takes quite a long time, which is one hour. Even with a hiking trail that makes it feel dislodged. However, all fatigue will pay off with the beauty of the savanna that steady soul.

No wonder many climbers choose to camp in Sabana 1 or Sabana 2. Both of these savannas are also favorite spots for climbers to take pictures. The combination of green typical savanna with bright blue sky, able to anesthetize lovers of beauty.

After Savanna 2, then the journey to the top of Mount Merbabu begins. There are several peaks on Mount Merbabu, but what can be traversed from the Selo trail is Trianggulation Peak and Songo Kenteng Peak.

Travel time to get to The Triangulation Peak from Savanna 2 is about 90 minutes with a distance of 916 meters. Regarding the climbing track, no need to ask. Just enjoy it. Because the peak looks so close in the eye, it turns out to be far in the legs.

If you are tired, pause for a moment while looking at the scenery around Mount Merbabu. There is Mount Lawu in the east, Mount Merapi to the south. Also look at the expanse of edelweiss, Cantigi trees, and savannas that are so wide. This landscape will more or less distract you from the fatigue that is whacking. A view as good as this can certainly be seen when the weather is clear.

After an hour's drive from Savanna 2, climbers will reach the Triangulation Peak. All continue to Kenteng Songo Peak which is only 123 meters away with a travel time of 10 minutes.

At Kenteng Songo Peak, there are six lumpang  or mashed tools made of stone and have a sunken hole. At this peak, climbers can enjoy sunset and sunrise moments that will not be forgotten.

In addition to excellent physical and sufficient supplies, there is something that must be prepared by climbers before climbing Mount Merbabu. Along the Selo hiking trail, there will be no springs. So climbers must take into account the need for water.

So, if the climbing path of Mount Merbabu has been opened, let's enjoy the extraordinary beauty. Now, at home first. (Contributor)

Tips Keselamatan

Mendaki gunung itu asyik, tapi jangan lupa keselamatan nomor satu. Jangan asal terabas, ikuti peraturan dan rambu-rambu pendakian. Tahu jalur, bawa bekal, dan jangan lupa bawa obat-obatan. Ingat, gunung itu bukan mal, jangan sok-sokan jalan sendirian malam-malam. Lebih baik rame-rame, biar ada yang jagain kalau kamu kesurupan atau kebelet pipis di tengah hutan.

Hindari Tersesat

• Bawa peta atau aplikasi GPS. Tapi jangan terlalu mengandalkan teknologi, nanti kalau baterai habis atau sinyal hilang, kamu yang bingung sendiri.
• Tandai jalur yang kamu lewati dengan batu atau ranting. Tapi jangan terlalu banyak juga, nanti malah bikin gunung jadi berantakan.
• Kalau kamu merasa tersesat, jangan panik. Duduk dulu, tenangkan diri, lalu coba ingat-ingat jalan yang sudah kamu lewati. Jangan sok jago, minta bantuan orang lain atau petugas kalau kamu benar-benar tidak tahu arah.

Hadapi Cuaca Buruk

Gunung itu bisa berubah-ubah kayak cewek PMS. Tadi cerah, tiba-tiba hujan deras. Makanya, bawa perlengkapan yang sesuai. Jas hujan, sepatu bot, dan jaket hangat wajib hukumnya. Kalau kehujanan, cari tempat berlindung yang aman.

Jangan di bawah pohon, nanti malah kena petir.

Tangani Cedera

Mendaki gunung itu bukan lomba lari, jadi jangan buru-buru. Kalau kamu cedera, jangan dipaksakan. Istirahat dulu, obati lukanya, dan kalau perlu minta bantuan. Jangan sok kuat, nanti malah tambah parah.

Jalur Evakuasi dan Kontak Darurat

Sebelum berangkat, pastikan kamu tahu jalur evakuasi dan nomor kontak darurat. Kalau terjadi sesuatu, kamu bisa langsung menghubungi petugas atau relawan. Jangan lupa simpan nomor-nomor penting di handphone kamu. Jangan sampai handphone kamu mati karena kehabisan baterai, nanti malah repot.

A large beautiful Mountain overlooking Mt Merapi. The Trails are good and easy to follow though water is a big problem. Routes from Selo to the North and Kopeng to the South West. Kopeng trail is twice as long as leaving from Selo. Water available at several points on the Kopeng trail. Get a guide and someone to carry lots of water anyway. No water on trail from Selo. Go from Kopeng and camp on the summit for one of the most rewarding treks in Indonesia. Descend to Selo in the North. Like most volcanos it is technically easier but one needs to be fit for the constant ascent followed by constant descent.

• Getting There

You get there from Semarang, Solo or Jogyakarta. If going to Kopeng turn off at Salatiga on the Solo- Semarang road and if to Selo turn off at Boyolali on the same road. There are hotels in Kopeng then take an Ojek (motorbike taxi) to the trailhead at Tekelan a few Km East. The ranger post is here. It is also possible to overnight at the rangerpost. (pretty basic) Leave early because you will need all day to get to the summit. From Selo, head straight up from the market. Ask around as many confusing trails. Once again take an Ojek to the trailhead. The losman in Selo has a guide service.

As with all mountain hikes in Indonesia, register at the ranger staion and pay a few thousand rupiah. Be patient, polite and leave a small tip. (Less than US$1.00 )

• When To Climb

Merbabu is best climbed in the dry season from May to October, though it can rain at any time. In the wet season it is wet cold and very exposed. The monuments on the summit indicate climbers have perished here in the past. However you are unlikely to lose the trail as it is well formed. The route basically follows a ridge to the summit and although there are times that you may meet a side track stay on the best well formed track (Heading up) and you shouldn't go wrong.

Plenty of camp sites but their effectiveness is curtailed by lack of water. There is water about 150m down from shelter V (2800m or so) which is down then up again to the next saddle after the radio antennas if comming from Kopeng. Important to search around for the good water up a valley below the bubling sulpherous springs. You can hear the water at shelter V. Shelter V is a name. There is no shelter here but flat spots dug out of the hillside for camping. If you don't want to camp on the summit, stay here, load up with water the following morning and go on to the summit and down to Selo in about 6 hours

In Early August 2002 Indonesian Newspapers reported fires burning on the slopes of Merbabu. This is common on most Javan volcanos as the dry tussock burns. Blackens the trees but doesn't seem to do much damage other than leave black scars on the slopes

Hi David, great to find you post. I'm from Indonesia and have hiked Mount Merbabu twice. It's a great mountain anyway. Right?
