Mount Bromo is one of the most iconic natural wonders in Indonesia and a must-visit destination for travelers seeking adventure and breathtaking landscapes. Located in Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park in East Java, this active volcano stands at 2,329 meters above sea level and is famous for its spectacular sunrise views, dramatic volcanic landscape, and rich cultural heritage.
Mount Bromo attracts thousands of visitors every year thanks to its otherworldly scenery. The vast Sea of Sand, the smoking crater, and the backdrop of Mount Semeru, the highest mountain in Java, create a truly unforgettable panorama.
🌄 Bromo Sunrise Tour – The most popular experience is watching the sunrise from Penanjakan Viewpoint, where you can witness the first rays of sunlight illuminating the volcano and the surrounding peaks.
🌋 Hike to the Bromo Crater – After sunrise, travelers usually descend into the sea of sand and hike up the crater to see the steaming volcano up close.
🏇 Horse Ride across the Sand Sea – Local Tenggerese people often offer horse rides to the base of the volcano.
🕌 Cultural Heritage – The Tenggerese Hindu community still celebrates traditional ceremonies such as the Yadnya Kasada Festival, where offerings are thrown into the volcano’s crater.
