<h3>SUMMARY</h3>
Mount Welirang, located in the East of Java, Indonesia, is a twin volcano to Mount Arjuno. Standing at 3156 meters high, Mount Welirang has lots of sulphur deposits along the trail. Should there be an eruption to Mount Semeru, Mount Welirang can be the alternative trekking destination with amazing view of the region.

<h3>TRANSPORTATION</h3>
Take a flight from Singapore to Surabaya, Indonesia. Arrange for a transport and transfer to Batu City via Malang for an overnight stay before the trek.

<h3>TRAIL</h3>
This is a 2 days 1 night under-rated guided trek. 
<h4 class="p2">Part 1 : Batu - Sumber Brantas - Basecamp (Mount Kebar)</h4>
You will need a transport from Batu City to Sumber Brantas Village, where the trailhead is. There are a few trails to choose from. The travelling took about 45 minutes to reach there. Just 4 to 5 hours of trekking and you will arrive at the basecamp Mount Kebar, for an overnight stay. 
Accomodation : Tent
<h4 class="p2">Part 2 : Basecamp - Summit- Batu</h4>
Attempt the summit trek as early as 1am for sunrise moments. If you are lucky, you may be able to experience the wonders of glowing blue flame along the way. However, you may be choked by the toxic gases (sulphur dioxide) emitting from the holes created naturally in the mountain. The summit trek takes about 3 hours, and it is rocky but manageable. The sight and smell of sulphur is visible at the crater rim and the volcano is still actively boiling it. After which, descend and head back to Sumber Brantas Village and back to Batu.
