The journey continues with a sloping road in the form of solid land which will eventually climb up, but still not too heavy. About 2 hours will arrive at post 2 at an altitude of 2,120 meters above sea level.

Next trip to Pos 3 which is the last post in the form of an uphill track in the form of solid soil mixed with rocks, approaching post 3, the track is increasingly uphill with large rock tracks.

Sindoro indeed makes thirsty seekers beautiful scenery moments. However, there are certainly many struggles to tread, because of the steep road, slippery terrain, and the lack of water sources here. It takes a little extra preparation to conquer this mountain, like the other SS (Sumbing and Slamet). And you should not go up the mountain on the red holiday date, because a crowd that is too will only make you inconvenience later.
