The main draw that attracts tourists to Mount Bromo is the easy hike. You will not have to endure hours of ascend to see a spectacular sight of the volcano’s crater rim. Mount Bromo is one of Indonesia’s most active volcanoes. It is located in the middle of the plains known as the Sea of Sands, a protected nature reserve since 1919.

Although Mount Bromo is not the highest peak in East Java or in all of Indonesia, it is the most famous. Standing at 2,329 meters, it is part of the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park. Apart from climbing the highest peak in about 30 minutes to admire the sunrise, you may also enjoy a jeep or a horseback riding adventure of the Sea of Sands, a challenging but thrilling ride that will put you at the edge of your seat. Or head to the southern side of Mount Bromo and enjoy a picnic against the scenic sunset at the Savannah.

Book sooner rather than later if you already have your dates set. Cheaper-priced rooms and hotels with high reviews tend to get fully booked faster, especially during busy days like weekends, holidays & peak tourist seasons.
