点评:We traveled to Mount Ijen from Bali. At the scheduled time, our driver Samson picked us up. He was very punctual and drove us straight to the ferry terminal.
On Java, we were welcomed by our guide, Mr. Arif. He used to work as a miner on the volcano, so for him, it’s not just a mountain but a second home. He was very friendly and shared a lot of interesting insights about the volcano, the miners’ work, and even tropical plants.
We started our hike up Mount Ijen at night and followed Arif’s advice to keep a steady, unhurried pace. Thanks to this, we actually overtook those who rushed ahead at the beginning and ran out of energy. Before the hike, we had the option to rent warm clothing at the base camp, and after the descent, we had breakfast and coffee.
After visiting the volcano, we stopped by Jagir Waterfall, which is unique because it’s home to Garra rufa fish that naturally exfoliate your skin. The waterfall itself is very beautiful, and you can swim there.
We returned home to Tabanan, Bali at around 4 PM the next day.
翻译:我们从巴厘岛前往伊真火山。司机萨姆森准时来接我们,非常守时,直接把我们送到了渡轮码头。
在爪哇岛,我们的向导阿里夫先生热情地接待了我们。他曾在火山上当过矿工,所以对他来说,这里不仅仅是一座山,更是他的第二个家。他非常友善,和我们分享了很多关于火山、矿工工作,甚至热带植物的有趣知识。
我们晚上开始攀登伊真火山,并听从了阿里夫的建议,保持稳健的步伐。正因如此,我们才超过了那些一开始就冲在前面,结果体力不支的人。登山前,我们可以在大本营租借保暖衣物;下山后,我们享用了早餐和咖啡。
参观完火山后,我们顺道去了贾吉尔瀑布。这个瀑布很特别,因为这里栖息着淡红墨头鱼(Garra rufa),它们能天然地去除皮肤角质。瀑布本身也非常美丽,而且还可以游泳。
第二天下午四点左右,我们返回了巴厘岛塔巴南的家。
