After arriving in the morning from your flight to Ulei, truck to the volcano departure to immediately begin the first day of trekking up to East Camp. The second day you will cross the ash plane to climb on to crater edge to look straight into a lake of red boiling lava 200m wide of Mount Marum. Return to East Camp and spend a second night camping on the caldera. The following day descend back down to Endu for a refreshing swim and a peaceful night recharging back at Sea Roar Bungalows in Endu village. Return the following day back to Ulei Airport via truck again. This is a fantastic volcanic adventure with two nights camping on the caldera where the night sky is brightly lit by the angry red fires of Marum and Benbow; no other light splits the dark of the night like it!

Trek Description
You start your journey with an undulating through fern forest and across mountainous terrain until you reach the ash plane spotted with bushes and grass. Staying the night at East Camp you will marvel at the glow of both volcanoes penetrating the night sky. The next day approaching the foot of Mount Marum you will see your first awesome view of the red lava lake below. Follow the edge of the crater rim anti-clockwise to a second lava viewing point. Admire the foothills below covered with wild cane, just like a landscape of crumpled green velvet. From the rim it’s an easy walk down back to East Camp. The next day you leave the ash plane behind and head on across a steep hill under the rain-forest. After following a bush trail it is time to say good bye to Marum. From here there is a 2 hour downward decent. The last half an hour is the steepest. As a reward, you will finally arrive at a beautiful beach where you can safety swim and enjoy offerings of local organic fruit to replenish you.
