Climbing the highest peak of the Bandas (667 m above sea level) offers great views. The trail starts at the few houses on the eastern shore and although it is unmarked almost impossible to miss. Bring plenty of water as the trail is steep, taking about 2 hours. Hiking boots are advisable as the path is stony and slippery. Guide recommended if going alone. The fare for boat transport from Bandaneira to Gunung Api is Rp10,000 each way.
