KALIURANG MOUNTAIN RESORT
Kaliurang lies at the foot of Plawangan hill on the southern slope of Mount Merapi, some 28 km, north of Yogyakarta. This is a refreshing holiday resort for those seeking refuge and tranquility amidst the lush green tropical splendour.

As a mountain resort, Kaliurang offers accomodation facilities:

- villas
- bungalows
- inns
- recreational facilities: swimming pools, tennis courts, a playground...etc.

Young people, such as boyscouts, enjoy going there since the town provides camping sites and places for mountaineering.

When the weather is clear, a spectacular sight of the panoramic view that covers the surrounding forest of Plawangan and Kaliurang, and the rolling green country side that fades into the distant misty horizon of the blue Indian Ocean can be seen easily.

The best time to view the mountain is shortly after sunrise (before 9.00 o’clock), when the early morning light starts lifting up the shroud of mist around its peak.
