"Dream – Indeed, as people say, Indonesia is like the emerald of the equator. In this country, beautiful landscapes stretch out, becoming favorite tourist destinations. Not only beaches, but the mountains and highlands in Indonesia also offer equally exotic views. The highlands and valleys cloaked in tropical rainforests promise impressive outdoor adventures. We do not need to go abroad to find this paradise. Here are six highland tourist destinations released by the digital travel platform Agoda:"
The translation of "Taman Nasional Bromo Tengger Semeru, Jawa Timur" to English is "Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park, East Java."
"Located in East Java, Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park is an enchanting and unmatched destination for adventurers and nature lovers."
As one of the famous volcanoes in Indonesia, the charm of Mount Bromo lies in its vast caldera, the smoking crater, and the starry night sky, offering an unforgettable view. In addition to Mount Bromo, Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park is also home to Mount Semeru. The temperature, which ranges from 10 to 20 degrees Celsius throughout the year, provides comfort when climbing the highest mountain on the island of Java.
The climb to the summit of Mount Semeru is an exciting challenge for experienced climbers. Climbing between April and August provides the opportunity to enjoy the stunning views of the expanse of edelweiss flowers.
"Prau, Wonosobo, Central Java"
"At an altitude of 2,565 meters, with temperatures around 10-17 degrees Celsius, Mount Prau becomes a friendly mountain for beginner climbers, due to its hospitable climate and terrain that is not too challenging. Upon reaching the summit of Mount Prau, Dream friends will be amazed by the stunning views of the Merapi, Merbabu, Lawu, Sindoro, and Sumbing mountain ranges, as well as the expanse of savanna that beautifies its natural panorama."
There are several trekking routes to Mount Prau, namely Dieng, Patakbanteng, Kalilembu, Dwarawati, and Wates. Each trekking route has a limit on the number of climbers, starting from 200 people in Kalilembu, 250 people for Dieng, up to 600 people in Patakbanteng. The Patakbanteng route is the most popular because of its relatively easy terrain and the stunning views around it.
"Wamena - Papua"
The city of Wamena is located in the central mountainous region of Papua. This small town is situated in the middle of a large and very fertile valley, which is quite famous in Papua, namely the Baliem Valley. Surrounded by hills and at an altitude of 1600 meters above sea level, the air in Wamena is quite cool with temperatures ranging from 14 to 26 degrees Celsius.
The main thing that should not be missed when visiting Wamena is interacting with the Dani tribe, a large tribe that exists in Papua. Tourists who trek in the Baliem Valley can explore traditional villages, participate in ancient rituals, and take part in local events, forging close connections with the rich cultural heritage of this region. The Dani tribe has very unique war dances and traditions that are unforgettable.
"Besides that, the Mummy of the Tribal Chief can also be an interesting option to witness. The hospitality of the Dani tribe brings an authentic and deep experience, allowing tourists to gain a deeper understanding of the traditions and way of life of the local people, making Wamena one of the extraordinary cultural destinations in Indonesia."
The translation of "Dataran Tinggi Dieng - Jawa Tengah" to English is "Dieng Plateau - Central Java."
The Dieng Plateau is a highland in Central Java Province, known for its stunning natural beauty, as well as interesting cultural and historical sites. With a temperature range of 10-19 degrees Celsius, this region has a very comfortable climate for exploring its historical and religious aspects.
In Dieng, Hindu religious traditions merge into customary ceremonies held at the ancient temple complex built since the 7th century, such as Arjuna Temple, while traditional performing arts, such as shadow puppetry and dance, become an inseparable part of the celebrations and rituals. The Dieng community is also skilled in handicrafts, such as traditional weaving, while cultural festivals, such as the Dieng Cultural Parade Festival, serve as a stage for artistic performances and cultural exhibitions that enrich tourists' experiences with a rich and unique cultural heritage.

One of the main attractions of this place is the Ngarai Sianok, a canyon formed by the Sianok River, creating a stunning natural view, with steep green rock walls and a river flowing at its base. This view creates a spectacular landscape and is often considered one of the most beautiful natural tourist spots in the area.
