Night Tour to See Lava Flow at Mount Merapi Volcano in Yogyakarta

Night Tour to See Lava Flow at Mount Merapi in Yogyakarta – For tourists visiting Yogyakarta who crave a unique nighttime adventure, a night tour to witness the stunning lava flow of Mount Merapi is an unforgettable experience.

While most tours on Mount Merapi are conducted during the day, offering views of its scenic landscape from spots like the Kaliadem Bunker, Klangon Hill, or the Merapi Viewpoint in Kaliurang, nighttime offers a more awe-inspiring perspective. From the western side of Mount Merapi, you can catch sight of the mountain’s fiery lava flows, a breathtaking sight that will surely captivate you.

Night Tour to See Lava Flow at Mount Merapi Volcano in Yogyakarta

Few tours offer the opportunity to see Mount Merapi’s lava flow at night. However, our tour makes it possible to witness this spectacular phenomenon from a safe distance, approximately 4-5 kilometers from the crater.

The night tour begins late and lasts until early morning. Since temperatures around Mount Merapi are cooler than in Yogyakarta’s urban areas, we recommend bringing warm clothes, gloves, and a head covering to stay comfortable throughout the experience.

Watching the fiery lava flowing from the peak of Mount Merapi is a highlight for many visitors. Interest in this unique tour is high among tourists in Yogyakarta, as it offers an entirely different experience from the daytime lava tours, which focus on the mountain’s scenic views and post-eruption landscapes. However, please note that lava sightings are not guaranteed and depend on natural conditions. If luck is on our side, we may witness the lava flowing down the mountain’s slopes, though sometimes it remains hidden.
