Gunung Semeru

Getting there: For domestic flights from or to East Java, such as the airports in Surabaya, Malang and Banyuwangi, we recommend Baolau. Best to arrange transport to Ranupani in advance. Malang is the closest city with an airport but there are many more flights to Surabaya (including international flights).
Guides and GPS Tracks: Want a PDF version for your phone? Looking for a guide? Need GPS tracks and waypoints? Gunung Semeru information pack can be downloaded here.

Permits: Available from the homestay in Ranupani – take a photocopy of your passport photo page. You also need to present a health certificate which must include a) blood pressure and b) data for body-mass-index. Health check can usually be done in Ranu Pani but if possible get it done in advance to save time. Indonesian citizens pay Rp17,500 per day to enter the park (Rp22,500 on weekends and holidays) and foreigners including those with KITAS/KITAP who already pay local taxes pay Rp210,000 per day (Rp310,000 on weekends and holidays). Indonesian citizens must reserve their entry ticket online (limited to 600 per day). One advantage to being a foreigner is that (in 2019) you do not need to book online in advance.
Water sources: Available at Ranu Kumbolo and near Kalimati.
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.
