How does Andong Mountain easy for beginners?


Well, I think the best way to see the surface of the city is to climb the highest part in there. As a student who lives in and near with Central Java, I usually climb a mountain with my friends. If you are taking a college in Yogyakarta you have to think about this new hobby. Actually, this hobby doesn't need a lot of money, but you are only needed and this is the most important is physical preparation. Another thing that you have prepared is the tools for camp on the peak of the mountain.

Mt. Andong is one of the mounts with easily level with the high is 1726 mdpl. I went there with my friends from Lampung and Temanggung. We are the closest friend so it is a really unmemorable experience for me. Me and my friend realize that we are the beginners in this hobby, so we choose to climb this one.
If you are a beginner like us, I suggest you begin your climb history with starting climb this mount. If you are have finished climb this mount, you are able to climb the next mountain with harder than. Because it needs a step to be an adventure men. Need to start with the easy first.

Here are my reviews about this mountain as a mountain that I have climbed on 16, Feb 2016.

Just like another mountain who located in Java to be more specific is at Magelang Central Java, Andong is still green with the grasses and trees. From the peak of this mount, we were able to look the others mount such as Volcano and Merbabau Mountain. And if you are lucky you can see another mount and the ocean from the cloud. Mt. Andong has three peaks there are Makam Peak, Alap-alap Peak, and Andong Peak. For the logistic problem, such as the foods, water, and things like that will get ready in the little store on the peak, so don’t be careful. 

You need to be aware because of the way to the upper is little slippery. You need to wear the comfortable shoes such as mountain shoes. It will be taken 2 hours in a way in the journey to the peak from Desa Sawit, the most popular district to start the climb. 

If you want to enjoy the view, you are needed to check the weather of the day. This is due to the fact that it's changed to be fog when the weather is rainy.

Do not forget to take a picture in the welcoming slide in the upper with Indonesia’s flag. Be aware if you go there on the weekend or on holiday because it will be crowded, I guess.
