Gunung Arjuno

Getting there: For domestic flights from or to East Java, such as the airports in Surabaya, Malang and Banyuwangi, we recommend Baolau. Lots of transport options from Surabaya and Malang – taxis, shared cars, buses, ojeks, angkots.

Permits: It used to be easy to arrange at the more popular starting points such as Tretes simply by taking a photocopy of your passport photo page or your ID card. In 2022, this has all changed, and not for the better. You must book online several days before your visit at the Tahura Raden Soerjo site where locals pay Rp11,000 but foreigners (regardless of if you live locally!) pay Rp200,000. At present, foreigners are not allowed in at all, due to Covid rules. The link between being a foreign citizen and spreading Covid is not clear but it creates a very poor impression of the local authorities who make such blatantly xenophobic rules.
Water sources: Depends on the route but definitely wise not to rely on sources in what is a very large and wild area – take plenty of bottled water with you. The Tretes route up to the sulphur collectors’ huts has a couple of reliable year-round water sources detailed above as does Lembah Kidang. Pos 2 and Pos 5 on the Purwosari trail also have water sources.
Accommodation: Try the Booking.com map above or use this link to search for suitable hotels, homestays, resorts and apartments for your trip.
We recommend Safety Wing as travel insurance for overseas travellers and tourists hiking up to elevations not exceeding 4500 metres.
