Kawah Ijen Plateau - East Java
The Ijen Plateau lies in the centre of the ijen -
Merapi - Malang Reserve, which extends over much of
the mountainous region to the west of Banyuwangi,
bordering or, the Baluran National Park. A luminous
blue/green crater lake lies at the far eastern end
of the plateau and is without doubt one of the most
impressive of East Java's natural wonders.
The lake can be reached from either the east or the
west. The latter is the more popular approach, since
it takes just an hour and a half to hike up the
mountainside from the road's end. From the
Banyuwangi side, however, the trek takes six to
seven hours from the village of Licin.
Kawah Ijen is 2,300 meters above sea-level. The
enormous lake, which is 200 meters deep, contains
approximately 36,000,000 cubic meters of steaming,
acid water. A walk around the crater takes a full
day.
Sculpture is mined at the lake's edge and the
average yield is nine to twelve tons per day.
Experienced sculpture collectors, who are paid by
weight, are able to transport loads of up to 70 kg
to the top of the crater and then 17 km down the
mountainside to Banyuwangi, mostly on foot. After
arrival at the factory, the sculpture is treated for
use in the production of medicines as well as for
processing sugar.
