Kemuning EcoTour is an exclusive tourism experience developed by JAWI by applying sustainable tourism principles. Located in Kemuning, Temanggung, Central Java, you will be invited to explore one of the remaining lowland tropical forests in Java while experiencing the authentic life of a local village during a 2-day and 1-night journey. There are two themes you can choose from: 

1. Wildlife Trip 
   This trip is designed for those who want to focus on wildlife exploration in Kemuning Forest. You will have two opportunities for wildlife observation, during the morning and at night. In the morning, you can explore coffee plantations shaded by lush forest while enjoying birdwatching activities. At night, you will walk through the dark forest to search for Kemuning’s iconic rare species, the Javan slow loris. In addition to wildlife observation, you can also join three other exciting activities: learning traditional palm sugar making, honey cultivation, and watching the Warokan Dance performance. 
2. Coffee Journey 
   This trip is designed for those who want to learn about traditional coffee cultivation and processing practices carried out by farmers in Kemuning Village. You will have the opportunity to join an organic fertilizer workshop, a coffee care walk, and a post-harvest tour. You can also enjoy the rich taste of Kemuning coffee prepared directly by the locals. As an additional experience, you will also have the opportunity to watch the Warokan Dance performance and join a night exploration in Kemuning Forest.
