Mount Panderman can be said as the iconic nature of Batu City. Wherever you are in the area of Batu City, this mountain will always appear and become an interesting background. The peak can be seen clearly from the bottom, but even though its peak was impressed not so high, to get there you need excellent stamina because the road leading to the top of the climb is quite sharp and tiring. If you happened to be in Batu City square, then the mountain with a height of 2045 meters this will be a sort of "backdrop" to the square of the famous Batu City with its Ferris wheel.
To climb Mount Panderman there are two paths: the first lane is a common pathway that is already widely known through Toyomerto Hamlet, Village Guesthouse. The second pathway could be said not much to know because this pathway is not a common path and there are no facilities such as parking and clean water because it is not designed for those who are going to climb Mount Panderman; but this track is actually a kind of "shortcuts" to get at the top, and for members of the lovers of nature in the Batu City, this path is precisely the path of their favorites. The members of Batu nature lovers used to call the track "Heavy Bull." A track is quite challenging because in some corner of the hill slope is almost reached 90 degrees, and can only be passed by climbing.
The scenery along this second path is not less beautiful with the first track but quite dangerous. Climbers will pass through the edge of a very steep rainfall bull yet so beautiful. If lucky, climbers can bring home the edelweiss flower which is widely available around Rainfall Bull. To pass this pathway from Batu City, climbers must be towards the direction of Kusuma Agro Hotel, and continued to ride through a pretty uphill paved road to the point of beginning of the climb.
For those of you who choose the first path or general path, you first need to Toyomerto Hamlet, Village Guesthouse as the last hamlet before the climb. Here you can leave the vehicle and take care of permissions. After that you can directly move to the Pos Register Pos I continued to post the source of water (about 1330 meters above sea level), where you can fill out the last fresh water supply because after that no water will be found again. Next you have to walk back to the post of higher, Postal History Ombo (1600 m asl) where latency less than an hour from the Post where there are the source of water.
The next heading is a heading called Watu Post Gede (1730 meters above sea level) because in this place there are many large boulders. Gusts of wind in the Post Watu Gede is quite strong that rarely climbers who camped here. From this post the way to the summit will pass through the expanse of reeds and hill-climbs followed by a very strenuous, the terrain here is very open and would not hurt for a moment to enjoy the surrounding scenery is quite beautiful. From this place, to reach the top takes about 30 minutes or more because of the uphill terrain is an obstacle that can not be taken lightly. Reached the peak, called Peak height Basundara with 2045 meters above sea level, the fatigue will be relieved when in front of you, stretches a view of Mount Arjuno and Welirang, stretch of Batu and Malang, and if the sky was sunny, we can also see clusters of Tengger mountains and Mount Semeru.
