The fresh mountain air and expansive views will amaze you.

The journey continues to Batu Alien, a giant rock with a unique shape that is said to have been thrown far from the crater of Merapi during the eruption. This rock has become one of Merapi's popular icons, real evidence of the enormity of the volcanic material ejection. You can take pictures next to this unique rock formation, with the charming volcanic landscape in the background.

Along the way, you will pass through villages that are slowly recovering, seeing how local people adapt to the post-eruption environment, rebuilding their lives on the slopes of the volcano. Our guide will explain about the volcano's ecosystem, flora and fauna that are starting to recover, as well as the local wisdom of the community in living side by side with Merapi.
