Rute of Mahameru

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.

Previous stopped at Gubugklakah to obtain a permit, with the details, costs Rp6.000,00 license for up to 10 people, a garden Rp2.000,00 Admission per person, per person Rp2.000,00 Insurance

By using a vegetable truck or jeep journey begins from Overlapping to Ranu Pani, the last village at the foot semeru. Here there is a checkpoint, there are also stalls and the Cottage Inn. For climbers who bring tents charged Rp 20.000,00 / tent and when carrying the camera also charged USD 5000.00 / fruit. In this post can look for a porter (local residents to help orientate climbing, lifting and cooking). Climbers can also spend the night at the guard post. In Pos Ranu Pani also has two lakes namely Ranu Pani (1 ha) and Ranu Regulo (0.75 ha). Located at an altitude of 2,200 meters above sea level.

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). There is a lake with clean water and had a beautiful view especially in the morning can watch the sunrise on the sidelines of the hill. There are many fish, sometimes wild grouse. Ranu Kumbolo located at an altitude of 2,400 m with an area of ​​14 ha.

From Ranu Kumbolo should prepare as much water as possible. Leaving Ranu Kumbolo then climb a steep hill, with a very nice view at the back towards the lake. 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. Semeru belching smoke wedus trash.

Further into the pine forest where birds and deer sometimes encountered. This area is called Cemoro Cage.

Pos KALIMATI located at an altitude of 2,700 m, here you can set up a tent to rest. This post is in the form of vast grasslands on the edge of pine forest, so a lot of available twigs to make a fire.

There is a spring water source Mani, to the west (right) explore the forest edge KALIMATI with a distance of 1 hour to go. In KALIMATI and in Arcopodo there are many mountain rat.

To go Arcopodo turn left (east) walk about 500 meters, then turn right (south) slightly down meadow Kalimati. 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.

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.

The eruption in the form of white smoke, gray to black with a height of 300-800 meters eruption. Material that comes out at every eruption of ash, sand, gravel, rocks and even the heat is on very dangerous if hikers are too close. In early 1994 hot lava flowed south slopes of Mount Semeru and has incurred some casualties, although the river view hot winding towards the sea becomes a very interesting spectacle.

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.

Mahameru famous mountain peak that is wonderful as above the clouds, with a height above average to exist is a challenge for the climbers, with a reliable trustworthy instructor for the climbers to climb safely.

therefore of the friends are curious just to Indonesia, especially Java unfortunate yes.

so indokerz (Indonesia cool share) survived a visit.

Initially administration NIS NIS was held in Semarang Station. The rapid growth of tissue followed by increased demand for work space so it was decided to build administrative offices at the new location. The choice fell on land in the suburbs near the residence of the Resident Indies, at the southern end Bodjongweg Semarang. Directors NOS submit building plans to Prof. Jacob F Klinkhamer and B.J Ouendag, architect of Amsterdam Netherlands.

Pambangunan implementation begins February 27, 1904 and was completed 1907. The soil on the road should be improved prior to the excavation depth of 4 meters and replaced by a layer of volcanic.

NIS's new headquarters is a large building 2 floors shaped "L" designed by J.F Klinkhamer and Ouendag in the Renaissance Revival style (Sudrajat, 1991). He said the construction of the head office of NIS in Semarang is typically 2 decades of the early 20th century when it was introduced ethical politics, when it "... Emerging needs were large enough for building public buildings and housing, as a result of the expansion of the colonies, the decentralization of the colonial administration and the growth of private business" ,

Semarang resident gave him the name "Lawang Sewu" (a thousand doors), refer to the door the door very much, yan gmerupakan architects attempt to build a modern office building in accordance with a tropical climate Semarang. All the building materials were imported from Europe except brick, natural stone and teak.
