Ijen Volcano Trekking

What does the adventure look like?

One of the visitor's attention in the area of the crater is the existence of traditional sulfur miners. The workers dared to approach the lake to dig sulfur with simple equipment and then carried it with a basket. The sulfur miners take sulfur from the bottom of the crater. Here the smoke is quite thick, but the degree necessary equipment such as gloves and masks, they are still looking for molten sulfur. The molten sulfur obtained from the pipe leads to the source of volcanic gases that contain sulfur. This gas is then piped out in the form of molten sulfur red and yellow sulfur after freezing. Once the sulfur is cut, the miners would carry it through the path. The heavy burden is borne between 80 to 100 kg. The miners are accustomed to bearing this heavy burden while down the path on the cliffs of the caldera down the mountain as far as 3 kilometers.
