Mt. Prau: Hello from 2565 masl

Hi everyone! This post's highlight is about Mt. Prau.
August 23rd 2016 I had an exam which means days before I couldn't do exercise simply because I had to study and had an enough time to take a rest. But me and my friends planned to go to Prau Mountain on the day after, August 24th 2016.

view from the peak of Mt. Prau

First of all, Mount Prau located in Dieng plateau, Wonosobo, Central Java.

I went there with Dhira, Usnong, Syahdi, Dimas, Alem, Andika and Hanif.

I'd like to share my journey to 2565 meters above sea level. Here we go!

Start from Semarang, Saturday August 24th 2016 we went to Wonosobo and about 3 hours we arrived.

At first we went to Alem's house and took a rest then about 3 o'clock in the afternoon we arrived at basecamp of Mt. Prau mountaineering and it was raining. So we waited about an hour hoped the rain stopped then we started our trip to the peak. The mountaineering cost IDR 10.000.

So many stairs at first. We walked from basecamp towards an uphill road with rocks but tacky on it. It was raining and my shoes soles broken off fortunately I still could wear it. Then we stopped at a tavern, drank a hot tea and ate snacks.

I think from all the terrain this was the most beautiful and easy one. Some roads are flats eventhough it was raining I saw the view is awesome!

It was already dark :" the rain was calm down so I took off my coat at first but unfortunately in the middle of the way it became a heavy rain. I put it on again. The lightning and thunder were awful tho.
The terrain is very bad in my opinion this is the worst. In some part there were many choices but it was dark which means it's hard to see. In the other hand there was only soil, just enough for one person, so high and the water from the rain flew swiftly in and on my shoes.

The second worst. Lol, I mean seriously even there were some road that flats but the rest of it awful. My left and right side were gorges. Once again I said, it was dark and cold. When I found the camp area, I see the light! :"
We built our tent while it was raining. After we did it, we boiled water and cooked our dinner then went to sleep.

Total time: 4 hours
