Day 1Mountains Of Fire
Make the most of your stay in Yogyakarta to immerse yourself in the fascinating natural science of volcanology.
Indonesia is in fact a land of volcanoes, as its string of islands stretches across the famous subduction zone that is the Pacific 'ring of fire'.
Explore the outskirts of the Merapi volcano with a short walk around the village of Kinarejo (which was razed to the ground in the 2010 eruption) and visit the Merapi Museum in Kaliurang.
Back in Yogyakarta, meet a leading expert on the Merapi volcano (one of the most active in the world) to find out more about volcanology, whose mission is to prevent the risks associated with eruptions.
