The trip starts at 00:00 am, when our driver will pick you up at one of the specified locations (hotel, homestay, harbour, train station, etc). Depart from Banyuwangi City for the Ijen Volcano parking area (around a 1-hour drive).
Upon reaching the Ijen parking area, you'll meet our local guide there, take a moment to relax (enjoy coffee or meals at a traditional restaurant), and receive a briefing before starting the hike.
At 2:00 am, you'll start the hike of around 3 kilometres from the starting point to the summit. After you reach the summit, you'll need to go down around 500 metres to the crater to see the blue fire phenomenon before the sun rises and observe the sulphur mining activity.
Afterwards, go back up to the summit and take some time to chill on the summit of Ijen Volcano, soaking in the panoramic view of the lake as the sun illuminates the landscape.
By 6:00 am, head back to the parking area for a well-deserved rest after the hike before beginning the journey back to Banyuwangi City.
Stop at Jagir Waterfall, walk around 200 metres, and enjoy the fresh air and waterfall. Return to the car and continue driving.
