The Itinerary – Step-by-Step Guide to Your One-Day Adventure
05:00 AM (Jakarta) / 06:00 AM (Bogor) – Pick-up from Your Hotel
Your adventure begins with a private pickup from your hotel in Jakarta or Bogor. Enjoy a comfortable, air-conditioned car ride as you leave behind the urban jungle and head toward the refreshing highlands of Mount Gede Pangrango National Park.
07:30 AM – Arrival at Mount Gede Pangrango National Park & Briefing

08:00 AM – The Trek Begins
As you take your first steps into the national park, dense tropical forests surround you.

You’ll pass through mossy forests, bamboo groves, and fern-filled pathways, each revealing a new side of the mountain’s biodiversity.
10:00 AM – Rest Stop at the Hot Springs
Midway through the trek, take a well-deserved break at the hot springs—a naturally heated pool where steam rises from the water, creating a mystical atmosphere. Dip your hands in the warm mineral-rich waters to soothe your muscles before continuing your climb.
