Gunung Prau is a mountain in Indonesia offering the best views of Central Java, Gunung Prau is a dormant volcano located on the Dieng Plateau in Indonesia. Its altitude (2600 m above sea level) accounts for the panoramic view, but it should not be considered a deterrent for inexperienced hikers: the climb begins at the village of Dieng, itself already situated at 2060 m.
The trail is smooth and well maintained. For a reasonably fit person, it takes about two hours to reach the summit. Many do it at night to be at the top in time for the sunrise, which is a truly magnificent sight. Camping is also a good option: this way you can see the sunrise and sunset. However, as is common in this area, clouds often settle on the mountain from noon onwards, and seeing the sunset is a matter of luck. At night, they descend into the valleys below, and when the sun reappears, it highlights the rows of volcanic cones - Sumbing, Sindoro, Merbabu, Merapi, Slamet - that rise above a solid sea of clouds, as if suspended in a white void.
The sky usually clears shortly after sunset, making Gunung Prau an excellent vantage point for astrophotography - or stargazing, for those with a more romantic bent.
