Duration: 2hrs30-3hrs Recommended start: 4 am
We invite you to visit the world's largest Buddhist temple in a unique way, while discovering its surroundings. A jewel of Buddhist art and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the temple of Borobudur impresses with the majesty of its architecture and the perfection of its bas-reliefs.
At the end of the night, your guide will meet you at your hotel and take you to the Menoreh Hills, around 25 km west of Yogyakarta, which overlook the Borobudur plain.
You then begin an original hike through superb landscapes, also along some ridges, which offer an extraordinary panorama, at sunrise, of the green rice fields below and the volcanoes rising on the horizon (Mt Sumbing, Mt Merbabu & Mt Merapi, in particular).
Then, in the middle of the valley rises the imposing sanctuary of Borobudur, which you visit at the end of your walk. Return to Yogyakarta in the afternoon.
