Mount Bhutak 2-Day Trekking (Via Batu)

Details

 

Mount Bhutak (2,868 m) is a lesser-known yet captivating trekking destination located near Batu, East Java. This 2-day, 1-night hiking trip offers a refreshing adventure perfect for nature lovers, beginners, and those seeking a peaceful escape from the busy cities. Unlike more rugged East Java peaks like Raung or Semeru, Bhutak provides an easier, shorter trek with stunning mountain views, peaceful pine forests, and the rewarding charm of camping in the wild.

Your journey begins from Surabaya, Malang, or Batu with convenient private transport to the basecamp. After registering and organizing the equipment, a moderate 5–6 hour hike takes you through lush trails to the summit area, where you'll camp overnight.
