Dieng Plateau: A Hidden Gem in Java’s Highlands
#indonesiatrip
The Dieng Plateau in Central Java, Indonesia, is a stunning and lesser-known destination that took me completely by surprise. Known for its unique volcanic landscape, the plateau offers an otherworldly experience with its misty valleys, craters, and colorful lakes. I started my adventure at Telaga Warna, the "colorful lake," where the shimmering hues of green, blue, and yellow reflected the sunlight, creating a magical atmosphere.
I then visited the Dieng Temples, ancient Hindu shrines set against the backdrop of towering mountains. The cool, crisp air and panoramic views made this a peaceful, almost spiritual spot. Kawah Sikidang, a bubbling sulfuric crater, added to the volcanic drama of the area.
Dieng's charm lies in its untouched, mystical vibe—far from the crowds, yet brimming with beauty and culture. For anyone seeking adventure, natural wonders, and a deeper dive into Java’s heritage, the Dieng Plateau is a must-visit treasure.

DIENG PLATEAU, a MUST visit in Yogyakarta.
The journey from Yogyakarta about 3 hours, by car. You can rent a car with driver, cost about $65 for 12 hours. It’s good to reach there around 4pm and spent 30 mins to take nice pictures. We can’t go back to hotel quite late because of the road doesn’t have street lamp.
Very beautiful and enjoyable, quite cool there.

Roughly speaking, the Dieng Plateau (DT Dieng) occupies an area measuring 4-6 km wide (north–south) and 11 km long (west–east). The altitude of the plain is at 1 600 to 2 100 m above sea level with the direction of surface flow to the southwest,[1] towards the Serayu River valley. With air temperatures ranging from 12–20 °C during the day and 6–10 °C at night, although in the dry season (July and August), the air temperature can reach 0 °C in the morning, the climate in DT Dieng includes a subtropical climate and gives rise to frost which the locals call bun upas ("poison dew") because it causes damage to agricultural crops.

Get refresh and relax at Dieng Plateu!
Very nice place with amazing scenary.. and the weather very cold. If you visit this place i guess you should wearing double or even multiple jacket! Perfect place for a short escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The cool air makes our mind refresh and feel relax. The mountain scenery is more than beautiful, especially in summer with temperature below than 10 degree. In the evening, temperature severely drop, from 2 digits to one digit in 2-4 hours.
There are some exciting places in Dieng Plateu offers a bundle package of holiday: historical buildings, natural view, water recreation, hiking spot, such as Telaga warna, Ratapan Angin, Sikunir Mountain, Candi Arjuna.
