Discover the dramatic beauty of Mount Merapi on a guided soft trekking adventure along the volcano’s eastern slopes. This shared outdoor experience begins with pick-up from select Yogyakarta accommodations or a meeting point at Grand Hotel De Djokja before traveling to Kalitalang Village, one of the most accessible viewpoints of the volcano.

After a short briefing and warm-up, follow a local trekking guide on a gentle hike through lush greenery, pine forests, and volcanic landscapes shaped by past eruptions. The trail offers sweeping views of Mount Merapi’s peak, crater, and lava flows from a safe distance.

Along the route, stop at scenic viewpoints such as Gardu Pandang, known for clear morning views of the mountain, and a suspension bridge overlooking a ravine with the volcano as a stunning backdrop. After the trek, visit a local coffee home industry in the village to interact with residents and sample traditional Merapi coffee.
