Papandayan is one in all the foremost fascinating volcanoes of West-Java and it's simply reached. however there are few guests.

After the last eruption in 2002, the landscape modified significantly, remnants of scarred trees dominate the landscape. in keeping with our guide the car parking zone was lined in debris, and a brand new car parking zone had to be established a couple of hundred meters down from the initial one. New vents keep showing in sudden places. thus you wish to possess a guide who shows you where it's safe to run.

Our 1st visit was in 2005, after we paid our guide Rp 50,000. Since then villagers have created a guide organization. guests might choose from a 2-hour, 3-hour and 6-hour itinirary. The 2-hour itinirary leads up tp the crater lake and back, and prices Rp 250,000. If you think that this is often abundant, bear in mind that a part of the fee is for the village welfare fund. And there are thirty seven guides taking turns, which suggests that a guide solely gets to earn cash from guiding each few weeks or thus.
