"Mesmerising scenery. You can touch the cloud, cand see the green area far away around. Motorcycle and car are able to park at the entrance to the Widosari peak. No tickets to buy, only parking service, 2k for motorcycle and 5k for car. Please keep its cleanliness if you visit, as it is very clean all the time."
