Important Information Before Hiking Mount Ijen
Before your hike to Mount Ijen, please be informed that all hikers are required to present a medical certificate from a doctor, confirming that you are in good health and fit for hiking. This is a mandatory safety requirement set by the Mount Ijen authorities.
Medical Certificate Requirements:
- Issued by an official healthcare provider (clinic, public health centre, hospital, or licensed doctor).
- States that you are in good health and physically fit for hiking activities.
- Should be issued within 1 day prior to the hike (preferably recent).
We highly recommend that you prepare this certificate before your hike. If you haven’t obtained one yet, we can help arrange a visit to the nearest clinic for a quick medical check-up.
There are two options for obtaining a doctor's certificate: you can either arrange one at a clinic near your hotel or have our team prepare it for you at a cost of €8 per person.”
