Edelweiss flowers are one of the special and unique flowers, because these flowers will bloom throughout the year. When you pass the Puncak area, surely you will often find traders selling Edelweiss flowers. Well, for those of you who want to see this one flower directly, we will provide recommendations for places you can visit.
Padang Kasna Hill
Padang Kasna Hill is the most photogenic and beautiful place for you to visit. Located in Temukus, Junggul Hamlet, Besakih Village, this hill is only about 15 minutes away from Besakih Temple. After you arrive at the location, you must continue the journey by trekking for approximately 15 minutes. Your trip will be paid for with the beautiful expanse of white kasna flowers. In Bali itself, kasna flowers are one of the gifts from the gods of the Teukus community. Uniquely this kasna flower can only grow in the Temukus region. Usually the residents here will replant the flower fields every six months before Galungan and Kuningan holidays.
Asah Hill
For those of you who like a beautiful and quiet atmosphere, visit Asah Hill. Located in Bugbug Village, Karangasem, this place not only offers the beauty of its flower gardens, but also other sights in the form of the sea, green hills and cliffs. The atmosphere is quiet and has not been visited by many tourists, making the community dub the Bukit Asah as silent hill. Asah Hill can be reached by traveling around 1.5 hours from Denpasar by motorbike or car. The best moment to enjoy the view on Bukit Asah is at sunrise and sunset. Not only enjoy the scenery, you can also camp here.
Plawangan Sembalun
For those of you who like to ride mountains, you can visit Plawangan Sembalun which is on the slopes of Mount Rinjani. In addition to the beauty of its white edelweiss, Plawangan Sembalum is also famous for its golden sunrise. Located at an altitude of about 2,700 meters above sea level, Plawangan Sembalun is about one kilometer from the summit of Mount Rinjani. Along the way you can see the beauty of Edelweiss and the view from Segara Anak Lake.
Mandalawangi Valley
Next, there is the Mandalawangi Valley located in West Java. This place is indeed known as the Edelweiss savannah. So beautiful, this place even written in the poetry of Soe Hok Gie, who is also known as an activist and nature lover. You can see the edelweiss over here with a mix of green mountains around it.
Mount Lawu
Unlike other edelweiss fields that tend to be white, the edelweiss field here tends to be purple. To get to this place, you have to go through a quite difficult journey. But unfortunately, Edelweiss flowers here are not always blooming, even if there is, the position is on the brink. Even so, this place is very worth a visit because of its beauty.
Suryakencana Square
Mount Gede Pangrango also has its own edelweiss flower field called the Suryakencana square. To get here you can travel or trekking for approximately 3 to 5 hours from the Gunung Putri hiking trail. There is a myth that accompanies the beauty of the edelweiss flower meadow, which is when the sound of the hooves of horses is said to have originated from soldiers who were the guards of Pangeran Surya Kencana.
Tegal Alun
You can also find Padang Edelweiss flowers in the Papandayan Mountain area. Although the location is on the hiking trail, visitors who come may not set up tents or spend the night in this place. To see the beauty of the edelweiss here, you need to leave early in the morning before sunrise. At that time you will see the beauty of the sunrise with a warm atmosphere and a stretch of edelweiss flowers. But, keep in mind you may not pick flowers that are here to take home.
