The mountain which is the abode of the gods and the late So Hoek Gie is the highest in Java. Where the highest peak Mahameru is at an altitude of 3,676 meters above sea level. And to get to the top of Mahameru, you must have a strong mental and physical strength and always maintain safety.
Because this is where the sandy path to the top of Mahameru is the final resting place of So Hok Gie. The famous sand path when we take 1 step it will take 2 steps back. In addition, passing this route, we must always be aware of rocks that often roll freely from above due to landslides.
In addition to getting the title of the Highest mountain in Java, this mountain located in the districts of Lumajang, Probolingo, Malang and Pasuruan has a million beautiful charms. Like Ranukumbolo, a lake that has the best sunrise and a million charms.
The Rise of Love, which has a myth, if you think of someone you love when you go through this incline, the feeling will be conveyed and come true. But on the condition that during the pass you can't look back. Then there is the Edelweiss Field in Kalimati which is so beautiful and enchanting. And of course the highest peak of the island of Java, the peak of Mahameru which is so firmly standing.

Even for climbers, if you want to become a true climber completely, you have to conquer the mountain which has a height of 3,344 meters above sea level with this extreme path.
This is of course because the hiking trail is on a mountain ridge with gaping ravines on either side. There is even a death lane on Mount Raung called the Shirotol Mustakim Bridge route because it is very dangerous and there is no safety rope at all. What must be very stressful going through it is the same as when he will give you a yes or no answer.
Mount Raung is also often one of the training places to prepare for climbers who will climb abroad, especially to the highest mountain in the world Mount Everest, or start the 7 Summit of the World expedition.
