Trip to Mount Sanggara (1.925 mdpl)

Last weekend I went to Bandung and climbed Mount Sanggara with Kelana Indra and Fajar PY. We used two bikes From Bandung to Dago Giri then to Maribaya and Bukittunggul plantation. After parking the bikes at Pak Iin's house in Pangli village, we started hiking around 2 PM Saturday. That afternoon we made camp at one area known as Taman Survival or Survival Garden. Here we share info about how to use flysheet for tent, how to build fire and then we got talking untill around 9 PM before sleeping. On Sunday we broke camp then continued to the top. At some point we decided to go direct and using machete to cut open the new track. Finally around 10 AM we got the top of Mount Sanggara. Here we found other hikers. We got down to Pangli Village then continued to Bandung and back to Jakarta. Sanggara is a small mountain but it is perfect to train your survival and orienteering skills.
