West Java 7-Day Itinerary: Tea Hills, Coastline & Train to Yogyakarta
Travel south from Jakarta through Bogor and Bandung to the Pangandaran coast, then take a train to Yogyakarta, bypassing the mainstream eastern route.
Mainstream overland routes often skip the southern coast of West Java. This itinerary crosses the Puncak tea hills, passes through Bandung to the coastal town of Pangandaran, takes a boat into the Green Canyon, and finally boards a train from Banjar to Yogyakarta. The trip relies mainly on chartered cars, with the drive from Bandung to the coast being the longest stretch. Temples are saved for later in your journey, making this ideal for those who have already seen Yogyakarta and Bali and want to travel at a slower pace.
During the rainy season, the water in the Green Canyon can become muddy, which may suspend boat operations. Puncak experiences severe traffic jams on weekends.
