Helpfulness
Sarangan is actually in East Java province, but usually approached from Solo (Surakarta). The road passing over the southern slope of Lawu mountain used to be narrow, steep and cobble-stoned, but it has been upgraded to become an alternative route between Solo and Madiun.
From Solo you can take a bus for the 40 km to Tawangmangu, which is a resort on the western side of Lawu mountain. Between Tawangmangu and Sarangan (18 km) go minibuses (colts).
If you have time, drop off the bus before reaching Tawangmangu and pay a visit to Candi Sukuh (temple), featuring erotic sculpture.
