Ijen Crater

On the way up, we are surrounded by cloud, so much fresh air and mountain wind-voice is heard all the time.

It will be nice walking to get the crater on foot, while witnessing How hard the job the do,after half of distance covered, mountains lower that ijen can be seen, Trees keep moving and wild rooster sometimes is acclaimed to have seen.

Ijen is the biggest crater lake sulfur in java, with rocky mountain and nice stone range, Ijen means"Single"spoken by local.

Go for walk, takes about one hour and half for one way, through the ground-road, carrying two baskets sulfur on their shoulder, each basket is 30-40 kilogram and the height of the mountain is 2.300 meters, that's all only from the crater to the sulfur station before load on truck then send to the city.

for those who work by the crater,as sulfur miners is more dangerous,gas explosion threaten them anytime,a research said beneath the crater is an active natural fire on,believable  that's a totally risky for them.

Lake sulfur by the mining, in the perfect weather it can be explored.
