Questions
Qualify this activity
What causes the blue flames at Kawah Ijen?+
The blue flames are caused by the combustion of sulfuric gases (primarily sulfur dioxide) that are released from the volcanic vents. When these gases reach temperatures above 600°C and come into contact with oxygen in the atmosphere, they ignite with a striking blue color. This natural phenomenon occurs due to the mountain's active volcanic geology and is one of only a few places in the world where this is visible.
How long does the entire tour take?+
This is a full 24-hour experience. You'll be picked up from your Canggu accommodation in the early evening, drive 4-5 hours to Kawah Ijen, hike and view the blue flames (approximately 4-5 hours), enjoy breakfast and crater exploration, then drive back 4-5 hours to Canggu, arriving in the late afternoon the following day.
What should I check in the current final total?+
Check the provider’s current final total for your date, participants, pickup zone and selected options. Confirm all inclusions before paying.
Is the hike difficult? What's the altitude?+
The hike is moderately difficult. The ascent is about 2 kilometers over 2 hours with a 700-meter elevation gain to reach 2,386 meters (7,828 feet) above sea level. While the trail is well-marked, the altitude, darkness, and sulfur gases can challenge unfit travelers. Most visitors with reasonable fitness levels complete it successfully, though proper pacing and hydration are essential.
Is it safe to visit an active volcanic crater?+
Yes, with proper precautions. Kawah Ijen is an active but stable volcano. The blue flames viewing areas are in designated safe zones managed by local guides. You may experience mild sulfur gas exposure (eye/throat irritation), which is normal. Pregnant women, very young children, and those with respiratory conditions should consult guides before booking. The tour operators have extensive experience and excellent safety records.
