Although the height of this mountain is not too high (2,278 MDPL) but the difficulty level is much more difficult than the mountains in Java Island, before we climb, we must first travel overland and river for 2 days to get to the foot of the mountain ( Basecamp Ascent), then travel through steep climbs to get to the top of the hill through the wetland of Kalimatan Island which is close to the Equator line (Kalbar line).
Nothing wrong some people who have climbed Mount Bukit Raya climbing route (he said) the number two most difficult and expensive in Indonesia after Jaya Wijaya, Because that's why rarely climbers who tasted climbing at the highest peak to 7 in Indonesia.
Here is one of the paths that can be passed to get to Bukit Raya from the Kalimantan Barat:
Mount Bukit Raya is also included in the Bukit Baka Bukit Raya National Park, will be accessed from two official majors in the province is not similar, because the mountain is located on the border between West Kalimantan & Central Kalimantan, where the peak into the Central Kalimantan region. This mountain became one of the top mountains in the 7 Summits Indonesia series representing the highest point of Kalimantan Island (Indonesian sector). Because in fact the top point of Borneo Island is located in Mount Kinabalu, which entered the territory of Malaysia. The first ascent point is in Kasongan, Katingan District, Central Kalimantan & the 2nd one that I chose to make the climb this time; is the Village of Midnight Rantau, Sintang District, West Kalimantan. According to the news, the climb through Kasongan requires a budget that is cheaper in comparison with the route via Rantau Tengah Malam, but the climbing information from the trek is hard to come by. Therefore I decided climbing through West Kalimantan which is against the average more seldom selected for climbing to Mount Bukit Raya.
