Itinerary
Day 1
Arduous and strenuous climb to the Merapi summit mostly started from Kaliurang. Said as one of the hardest route for experienced mount climbers. Experience and adventure spirit reatrace the hikers' track ever made here by walking up and down the hills or valleys. Through Merapi rain forest, watch one or two rare bird species flying over the pines branch.
Stop for a while at the mount care taker's village, Bebeng. Relax by the side of cold, dry lava river, watch local hard workers pilling and huling up and down buckets of sand from the river bed to sell. Next, challenge yourself by trekking down the deep ravine nearby. Feel a distinctive atmosphere and tranquility here. Find also a man-made cave used by the Japanese in the waning years of the second world war.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
