What to expect
You'll be collected from your hotel before dawn and driven to the trailhead. The hike takes roughly two hours to reach the summit, gaining elevation gradually on a well-worn path. The final section steepens as you approach the crater rim. Once the sun rises, you'll have time to explore and photograph the views over surrounding peaks and rice terraces below. Breakfast is then prepared using steam from volcanic vents—a practical and memorable way to cook. The descent is gentler and takes about ninety minutes. If you've opted for the hot springs or coffee plantation, these happen on the drive back.
Good to know
Bring a torch, sturdy shoes, and warm layers for the pre-dawn climb. The air is cool at altitude and the path can be slippery. Vegetarian meals are available with advance notice. Souvenir photographs sold separately. Not suitable for pregnant travellers.
