Not Alone
Mount Lawu

***Part 5

The mystery of the haunted Lawu Mountain is increasingly reinforced by the presence of the Demon Market. This news is no stranger to the ears of the climbers, a market that is invisible to the naked eye is on the path of Cetho Temple, the slopes of Mount Lawu, a land overgrown with weeds.

Speaking of the Cetho Temple path, actually, this path is the shortest and fastest path to the top of Lawu, because the journey starts from 1,470 masl. However, this short path is at once the most dangerous path.

Because, the climbs on this path are very steep, steep gaping chasms on the edge of the track, thick fog often drops making visibility so short and increasing the risk of getting lost, so much more, as well as the belief that this path is a crossroads of supernatural nature and the presence of satanic markets.

Therefore, why this path is dangerous and not so favorite. The climbers prefer to choose two other paths, namely the Cemoro Kandang line and the Cemoro Sewu line.

Some climbers claim to have heard a noise, as if in the market, when passing through a land on the slopes of Mount Lawu. There was also a voice that was offering his merchandise, for example "want to buy what?".

In addition to the story above, there are many more diverse myths circulating in the community that Mount Lawu is indeed famous haunted and has a number of mysteries that accompany.

Another myth says that do not climb in green clothes. Some also state that do not bring an odd number of groups. Another story mentions that a nutritious water bath in Mount Lawu is very useful.

Despite all the mysteries and mythical wealth that Mount Lawu has, we should as climbers always be vigilant.

Beware here can mean to always keep the attitude during the mountain ride. Simple things like not saying rudely, not doing profanity, and not littering can be good practices that must be applied by climbers***.
