Kaliurang is a hill resort at around 900 m on the southern slope of Mount Merapi, one of Indonesia's most active volcanoes, about 25 km by road north of central Yogyakarta in Pakem district, Sleman. From the airport the road crosses the city on Jalan Raya Wates and the northern ring road, then climbs straight north along Jalan Kaliurang past the university district and Pakem. The distance is about 69 km and the drive takes roughly 1.5 hours; the last stretch is steep and narrow, and the area can be closed when Merapi's alert level is raised.
Kaliurang village has guesthouses, villas and small hotels among pine forest, with a park and the Tlogo Putri area at the top of the main road. The Merapi volcano museum lies a few kilometres below the village at Hargobinangun, and the eastern slopes around Cangkringan and Kaliadem, where the 2010 eruption destroyed villages, are visited on jeep lava tours. Bukit Klangon offers views of the summit on clear mornings. Evenings are noticeably cooler than in the city, and cloud often covers the peak from late morning.
Public transport: The airport lists the Railink airport train (KA Bandara YIA) from the airport station via Wates to Yogyakarta Tugu station in the city centre, a 39-minute journey; the airport lists no direct public transport to Kaliurang or the Merapi slopes.
