Mount Merbabu is the third highest
mountain in Jawa Tengah Province after
Mount Slamet and Mount Sumbing. The
mountain is 3,145 meters above sea level
in three districts in Jawa Tengah, namely
Magelang, Boyolali, and Semarang. The
entrance aka the starting point of
climbing Mount Merbabu can also go
through these three districts.
There are five official hiking trails opened to climb Mount Merbabu. Namely
the Selo-Boyolali, Suwanting-Magelang, Wekas-Magelang, Cuntel-Semarang,
and Thekelan-Semarang lines.
Each hiking trail on Mount Merbabu presents different challenges and
landscapes but is still charming. For example, the Selo trail, Boyolali which
became the most favorite path of climbers because it has a very large
savanna.
There is something to note when climbing Mount Merbabu via Selo. As of
February 1, 2020, Gunung Merbabu National Park Hall (BTNGMb) imposed a
registration system via online booking. So that the registration of climbing
on the spot can no longer be done.
Meanwhile, other trails outside Selo have not applied for online climbing
registration. So there, there can still be registered on the spot.
How to register online is also easy. The head of the group can
access the tngunungmerbabu.org site. After filling in the data of all
members of the group, climbers will get a unique registration code.
Well, this unique registration code can be used to check or change
data if there is a change. After that, a registration form appears that
can be saved and must be brought when re-registering at the
registration counter on the Selo hiking trail. The fare of climbing
tickets of Mount Merbabu is divided into entrance ticket tickets and
activities starting from 5,000 IDR for groups. The amount of
admission on a normal day is different from a holiday. Plus, there is
insurance worth 1,000 IDR.
The length of the hiking trail via Selo
reaches 5.63 kilometers with travel
time up to Kenteng Songo Peak of
about 8 hours 15 minutes. The
average temperature of Mount
Merbabu via Selo during the day is
15-21 degrees Celsius and at night
can reach 3-8 degrees Celsius. Pretty
cold, right?
The climbing point will start the Selo Resort Office with a travel
time of 90 minutes to get to Post 1 Dok Malang. Once passing at
the climbing gate, climbers are directly invited into the typical
forest of Mount Merbabu.
After arriving at Post 1 Dok Malang, the climb can be continued to
Simpang Macan for about 45 minutes. Here, climbers can unwind
for a moment while straightening their legs before continuing to
Post 2 Pandean. Although 'only' is 421 meters away, the path to
Post 2 is very draining.
The journey can be continued to Post 3 Slate which is at an altitude
of 2,593 meters above sea level. Here, climbers can camp or set up
tents because the area is so large. The view from Post 3 Slate is
also very charming. Climbers can see Mount Merapi from a
distance.
The specialty of climbing Mount Merbabu is in the beauty of the
savanna that is so extraordinary. Mount Merbabu has two very
large savanna fields. However, to arrive at Savanna 1 of Post 3 Slate
takes quite a long time, which is one hour. However, all fatigue will
pay off with the beauty of the savanna.
No wonder many climbers choose to camp in Sabana 1 or Sabana 2.
Both of these savannas are also favorite spots for climbers to take
pictures. The combination of green typical savanna with bright
blue sky, able to anesthetize lovers of beauty.
After Savanna 2, then the journey to the top of Mount Merbabu
begins. There are several peaks on Mount Merbabu, but what can
be traversed from the Selo trail is Trianggulation Peak and Songo
Kenteng Peak.
If you are tired, pause for a moment while looking at the scenery
around Mount Merbabu. There is Mount Lawu in the east, Mount
Merapi to the south. Also look at the expanse of edelweiss, Cantigi
trees, and savannas that are so wide. This landscape will more or
less distract you from the fatigue that is whacking. A view as good
as this can certainly be seen when the weather is clear.
After an hour's drive from Savanna 2, climbers will reach the
Triangulation Peak. All continue to Kenteng Songo Peak which is
only 123 meters away with a travel time of 10 minutes.
At Kenteng Songo Peak, there are six lumpang or mashed tools made of
stone and have a sunken hole. At this peak, climbers can enjoy sunset and
sunrise moments that will not be forgotten.
In addition to excellent physical and sufficient supplies, there is something
that must be prepared by climbers before climbing Mount Merbabu. Along
the Selo hiking trail, there will be no springs. So climbers must take into
account the need for water.
