Ijen Crater Trekking Tour 1 Day from Bali

The Ijen Crater Trekking Tour from Bali is an adventure that takes you to the top of Mount Ijen, an active volcano located in East Java, Indonesia, to witness the mesmerizing phenomenon of its blue fire.

Here’s a glimpse of what you can expect on this thrilling tour:

• Late afternoon pick-up: You’ll be picked up from your hotel in Bali in the late afternoon and driven to the westernmost part of the island, Gilimanuk, where you’ll take a ferry to Ketapang in East Java.

• Midnight arrival: Upon arrival in Ketapang, you’ll be driven to the base of Mount Ijen, arriving around midnight. Here, you’ll have a short briefing and prepare for the trek.

• Pre-dawn trek: The trek to the crater rim is a challenging one, taking approximately 2-3 hours. The path is steep and can be slippery, so it’s important to be in good physical condition.

• Witnessing the blue fire: As you reach the crater rim just before sunrise, you’ll be rewarded with the breathtaking sight of the blue fire – electric-blue flames emanating from vents in the volcanic crater floor. This mesmerizing phenomenon is caused by the spontaneous combustion of sulfur gases at high temperatures.

• Sunrise over the crater lake: After witnessing the blue fire, you can take in the stunning view of the sunrise over the turquoise crater lake.

• Descent and return: You’ll then descend back down the crater and return to the base camp, where you can enjoy a well-deserved breakfast. Finally, you’ll be driven back to Bali and dropped off at your hotel.
