    Banyuwangi - Ijen Crater
    Day 2

    Breakfast at hotel.

    Departure to Licin Village, then we will move aboard a 4x4 car along the slope of Mount Ijen and through stretches of plantations and rainforest. This one is one of the few that have remained on the island with large ferns and huge trees.

    Stop at the Park Renger before continuing the trek to climb to the crater. It will take about two hours to reach the top, along a shady path with breath-taking views. We will stop at about 2383 meters above sea level, where the lake of sulphuric acid reflects its particular colour on the surrounding rocks. It gives an apocalyptic impression to the atmosphere. Here, the men, who once looked for sulphur, used to climb down along the walls of the crater and went back the dangerous ridges with over 80 kg on their shoulders. At the top we will have free time to admire this magnificent environment.

    Back to the hotel for lunch. Free time during the afternoon.

    Dinner and overnight at hotel.
