Mount Sundoro

One of the many beautiful Indonesian mountains, who needs to travel abroad for a vacation with places like this! 2-Days, 1-night; 1st day in a couple of hours to basecamp, early next morning summit, go during weekdays to avoid busy weekend

Get a chance to hike to Mount Sundoro. From the basecamp, you can take a ride to Post 1 for 25K and near post 2 (40K) to save us 2-3 hours. The views overlooking mount Sumbimg, and there are plenty good spectular spot for memorable pictures. There are many popluar Hike Agent that can help us with camping tent setting as well food and guides. At post 3 you can buy water supply.

I hike up to Sindoro via Kledung. The hike up was pretty hard. Plus the wind was rough. Guide and porter are available at the basecamp. The crew are also very friendly. The basecamp itself is very easy to find. Ride a bus from Jogja, Semarang or Purwokerto and stop at Kledung Pass. Then walk to the basecamp.

There's plenty of track that leads to Sindoro, but the most common track is Kledung. It's very accessible, located in the side of Kledung Pass (Wonosobo-Temanggung). Very easy to reach.

View from track is just awesome, you can see Mt. Sumbing behind your back. The closer you get to the top, you will find a rocky track, so be careful. Basically Mt. Sindoro is an active volcano, so when you're close to the top, you will feel a strong smell of sulfur as well.

Beautiful mountain with wide top, you can play football on the top of the mountain lol. Just dont forget to bring enough water here. You can see Sumbing Mount from the top of it tho.

It takes about 3 hours to get the base camp of Kledung from Yogyakarta by motorcycle. The starting point to climb the mount is near the road. You can use "Ojek" to get Post 1 and half, it's only IDR 25K. It takes about 15 minutes. The track was very hard. But the view was very amazing.

I'm hiking Sindoro Mountain, Temanggung, with my friends in December 2017. The peak of Sindoro was in December because we wanted to celebrate the end of 2017. The Sindoro Wind was quite strong so we had difficulty building tents. The most ridiculous experience was when we were sleeping in a tent. There is a pig sniffing at our tent. Then there was someone who shouted that his tent was damaged by a pig. Ha ha. I was very scared at that time but stayed in the tent for fear of pigs. But the sindoro mountain is very beautiful. The view from Sindoro Mountain is Sumbing Mountain and the ocean of clouds is very beautiful. We are like on a cloud. Ufortunately I did not get to the highest peak of Mount Sindoro. Because at that time I was menstruating. According to local customs if a woman is menstruating it is not allowed to reach the highest peak because there will be danger. I obey their orders to be safe on Mount Sindoro.

We trekked via Alang-alang Sewu route. The initial trek to the camp area (Pos 4) was pretty easy with clear routes. The hardest part was the trek to the summit — it’s a trek filled with limestones all over with really steep slopes. Not for the inexperienced. Halfway to the summit there’s another checkpoint (Pos 5), which is there to serve one purpose only: to tell you that the summit is still far ahead. Make sure you bring enough snacks and water.

What a beautiful mountain with Mt.Sumbing as majestic view!
There’s some routes you can choose to create your hiking journey! Daylight hike friendly. It’s about 4 hours uphill through Kledung Basecamp. Only two hours ride from Yogyakarta.

Hiking here via Sigedang at the end of 2017. One of very challenging stratovolcanoes in Indonesia!

You can see the view of Prau and other mountains in the morning. Although surrounded by fog when summit attack, the view of savanna was still awesome! ~APL

we hike from the kledung basecamp. Both the base camp and the campsite are quite packed as we hike on the heroes' day. when you reach the campsite at sunrise camp, you can see a magnificent view of the nearby mount (mt Sumbing) rises above the clouds.
The toilets in the basecamp are quite clean

Great. Starting walking after maghrib. After 1 hour walk and then realize that we both out from the track because we find dead end path. Check the brosur and call the ranger. And they instruct us to go down and follow the road and find sign. Gratefully we find the sign and safe. Many route and we choose from sigedang.
