There is a beautiful path leading up to the volcano, and the view is simply magnificent!

‘Bukit Kaba’ is an active volcano in Bengkulu Province. The highest point on the volcano is southwest of the crater rim around the 'Kawah Hidup' at an altitude of 1,945 m. ‘Bukit Kaba’ has a complex of about five craters. The two most spectacular are known locally as 'Kawah Hidup' (living crater) with bubbling fumaroles (volcanic steam vents) and 'Kawah Mati' (dead crater) with a vent approximately 200 m deep and a turquoise lake at its bottom. The two craters are separated by a mountain ridge. The last volcanic eruption was in 2000. https://www.gunungbagging.com/kaba/

It’s not easy to find information for the climb apart from an outing on Camp2camp from 2008…

Easy hike mainly on a paved road, only the last two kilometers are on a trail. Scenery is nice and on top you can see several spots where sulphuric vapour is escaping from the mountain. Entrance free is 10.000 lDR.
