Mount Semeru is also the third highest volcano in Indonesia after Mount Kerinci in Sumatra and Mount Rinjani in Lombok [1]. The crater at the summit of Mount Semeru known Jonggring Saloko. Mount Semeru is administratively included in the two districts, namely Malang and Lumajang, East Java Province. The mountain is included within the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park.

In 1913 and 1946 Crater Jonggring Saloka has a dome with a height of 3744.8 m to the end of November 1973. Adjacent to the south, this dome break edge of the crater caused lava flow leads to the southern side covers an area Pronojiwo and Candipuro in Lumajang.


At the peak of Mount Semeru (Mahameru) climbers are advised to not get to the crater Jonggring Saloko, also banned climbing on the south side, for their poisonous gas and lava flows. This poisonous gas known as Wedhus Gembel (Java which means "goat dreadlocks", which is like a hairy goat dreadlocks) by locals. Mahameru dipuncak temperature range 4-10 degrees Celsius, at the height of the dry season minus 0 degrees Celsius, and found ice crystals. The weather is often foggy, especially in the afternoon, evening and night. The wind blowing in from December to January is often a storm.
Gembel Wedus eruptions every 15-30 minutes at peak of Mount Semeru, which is still active. In November 1997 Mount Semeru erupted as much as 2990 times. During the day the wind direction to the summit, to avoid coming during the day at the top, because the toxic gas and the eruption leads to the summit.

Soe Hok Gie, one of the leading Indonesian activists and students of the Faculty of Letters, University of Indonesia, died at Mount Semeru in 1969 from inhaling toxic fumes at Mount Semeru. He died along with his partner, Idhan Dhanvantari Lubis.


It takes about four days to climb the peak of Mount Semeru go-home. To climb the mountain can be reached via the town of Malang or Lumajang. From the terminal Malang ride public transportation to the village Tumpang. Connected again with a jeep or truck / pickup that is widely available in the market behind Tumpang terminal at a cost per person Rp20.000,00 to Ranu Pani Pos.

After arriving at the gate "welcome", pay attention to keep to the left towards the hills, but do not follow the wide street toward the gardens of the population. In addition to the usual path through which the climbers, there is also a shortcut that is usually used by local climbers, this path is very steep.
The initial path ramps, down the hillside dominated by reed plants. There was no sign signpost street, but there are signs measure the distance to each of 100 m. There are many fallen trees and branches overhead.
After walking about 5 km down a hillside overgrown with edelweiss flower, and will arrive at Watu Rejeng. Here there is a very beautiful steep rock. The scenery is very beautiful over the valley and the hills, overgrown with spruce and pine forests. Sometimes can see the smoke from the summit semeru. To reach Ranu Kumbolo still have a distance of about 4.5 km.
Ranu Kumbolo can set up a tent. There is also a climbers hut (shelter).

Ranu Kumbolo located at an altitude of 2,400 m with an area of ​​14 ha.

In front of the hill stretches a vast meadow called oro-oro Ombo. Oro-oro Ombo surrounded by hills and mountains with beautiful views, wide meadow with slopes overgrown with pine trees like in Europe. From behind Gn. Kepolo looked tops Gn.

Arcopodo within 1 hour of KALIMATI pass very steep pine forests, soils are prone to landslides and dusty. Can also camping in Arcopodo, but less stable soil conditions and frequent landslides. We recommend using goggles and masks because a lot of fly ash. Arcopodo located at an altitude of 2.900m, Arcopodo is the last area of ​​vegetation on Mount Semeru, the rest will be through the dunes.
Arcopodo to the summit of Semeru takes 3-4 hours, through the dunes are very steep and easily degenerate. As a travel guide, at this point there are also some small red triangular flag. All luggage should stay in Arcopodo or in Kalimati. The climb to the summit is done early in the morning around 02.00 am from Arcopodo.
During the day the wind cendurung north toward the summit carrying poisonous gases from the crater Jonggring Saloka.
The climb should be done in the dry season in June, July, August, and September. Should not climb during the rainy season because of frequent storms and landslides.
