"The most extreeme hiking i've ever done. Thousand of earthworms. Some of them are dead and smell very fishy. Met with Kopaska (Indonesian's navy special force) who are training there. Awakened in the early morning with the blast of geranate. Boom! Peak to Bremi : Rain storm, slippery track, muddy, flood, and kissed by leeches. 5 days 4 nights full of challenges (and experiences)." — sigitaji • Dec 26, 2017

"First day, started at 5.30 PM from Buper Tahura Pacet, Mojokerto, East Java, Indonesia. than move to Sanggar. Sanggar is the water tank, so you don't worry about water. Than we arrive to pengilen (the last water resource) 06.00 PM. from pengilen-ungup-ungup-puthuk pulosari-banggul adem, hard track no water source. At banggul adem 01.00 AM in here there small water source but little bit hard to put it. from Banggul Adem to the top (welirang) about 3-4 Hour, Banggul adem-Shelter-Sabrangan-Watu Lintang-Top" — xwalarea • Apr 18, 2015

"Used the mostly unused trail from Tahura camp. There is a sign which says Puncak Gunung Lawu 3.8 km. That is a mistake! The real distance is 9 km until the peak. Following the signs POS I-V through the jungle. Half way betwen POS IV and V the path joins the main path from Cemoro Kandang. The portion between POS II and IV is very steep. The whole trail is unbeaten, through the jungle, but machete was not necessary during the night, with headlight, one could see the path judging from the underbush size. nevertheless, it is easy to get lost, you can use my GPS track here: http://www.movescount.com/moves/move58823002 Fun fact: on the way down, around 2000 m altitude, I saw a Javan leopard hunting a monkey. Thankfully only the monkey and not me." — csaladenes • Apr 1, 2015

"There is water source at pos V via Cemoro Sewu (Jolotundho pos). And, there is a food stall right 200 meters below the peak. So it's OK to "tek tok" (go up then down), whitout camping. It's only need 5-6 hours to summit via Cemoro Sewu. And it's only need 2.5-3.5 hours to down via Cemoro Sewu." — sigitaji • Aug 9, 2014
