What
a day this has been! It’s pretty neat how much beauty can be found in your own backyard
if you just get out and explore.
*TIPS MENDAKI PUNCAK SEMERU*
So for this time I want to show you
what a gorgeous mount Semeru, the highest mountain in Java (Indonesia). I’m extremely
excited to take all of you along with me on my adventure last time. I enjoy
keeping local, but I love hiking in new place. Especially, Semeru, that I
really really want to hiking to since 2 years ago. Semeru is one of the most active volcano in Indonesia. The mountain erupts periodically every 15-20 minutes. The volcano belches out a huge of steam and cloud, sometime interspersed with ash and stone. The scenery on the way is beautiful, the eruption volcano, mountain savana, the lake, and the view from the top are spectacular. You can see vast sandsea of caldera from other volcanos. Finally I’m off to Ranukumbolo after walking to 2400 M.A.S.L. I really felt like I was at home in that day in the wilderness, Ranukumbolo. The sights, sounds, smells, and cold compare to nothing else. Life is always better and more fun at that paradise. And thanks God, I’m hiker! Mahameru is a must for mountaineers, hikers, and nature lovers, who happen to be Indonesia. And today I will share some tips for you guys who interested in hiking to Mahameru.
First I wanna say thanks to
@BackpacktouID yang telah mensponsori perjalanan pendakian gue ke Semeru
beberapa hari lalu. So pendakian kali ini jadi makin seru dan bersemangat. Dan
terimakasih kepada Sapu (nama panggilannya emang sapu) yang telah menemani
pendakian kali ini. Feel so grateful because of he knows what we have to do
saat ada longsor, kelaparan, kehabisan bahan makanan, saat hujan deras, dan
yang terpenting adalah bagaimana memanage tenaga buat sampai puncak gunung
Semeru, si Mahameru.
Kali ini gue mau berbagi tips
bagaimana caranya mendaki gunung Semeru sampai Puncak. For your info, Semeru
punya jalur baru dari Kalimati sampai yang disebut cemoro tunggal (yang kini
menjadi Comoro tumbang). Biasanya pendaki melewati Arcopodo untuk menuju ke
Puncak, namun karena jalur tersebut longsor, akhirnya jalur pendakian dialihkan
ke jalur evakuasi yang mana lebih cepat. Untuk pendakian dari Ranupani,
Ranukumbolo, hingga kalimati, gue percaya kalian semua pasti bisa karena
jalurnya nggak terlalu nanjak dan banyak landainya. Manage tenaga dan waktu
aja. Biasanya pendaki berhenti di Ranukumbolo dan Kalimati dan ngecamp disana.
So, gue kasih tips dari Kalimati sampai puncak aja.
Buat kamu yang belum atau sudah dua tiga kali ke Semeru tapi
belum bisa sampai puncaknya, cobalah yang Sembilan ini. GOOD LUCK!
