Prambanan, June 2026 — In the spirit of inviting the public to connect more closely with nature, culture, and a healthy lifestyle, while also celebrating the 5th anniversary of Amaranta Prambanan Yogyakarta, Amaranta presents the Amaranta Sunset Trail Walk, a leisurely walking event to be held on Saturday, 18 July 2026, from 15.30–17.00 WIB.

Adopting a Trail concept, participants will be invited to walk a 5 KM route connecting various iconic points in the Prambanan area, starting from Sky Garden Amaranta Prambanan Yogyakarta, continuing to Bendungan Pandanrejo, Candi Barong, Candi Dawangsari, Arca Ganesha, and ending at Spot Riyadi, with stunning natural panoramas and a breathtaking sunset along the way.

This event is open to a wide range of participants, from communities, families, and sports enthusiasts to travelers wanting to experience a different side of Yogyakarta in a more relaxed and meaningful way. Beyond walking, participants will also be invited to immerse themselves in nature, culture, and the charm of the Prambanan hills as the sun sets.

According to Firdha L. Agusta, General Manager of Amaranta Prambanan Yogyakarta, this event is part of a series of celebrations marking Amaranta's five-year journey in delivering authentic stay and travel experiences in the Prambanan area.

“Amaranta Sunset Trail Walk is more than just a sporting activity. It is an opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature, strengthen togetherness, and see Prambanan's cultural heritage from a different perspective, especially in the magical atmosphere of sunset. Through this 5th anniversary celebration, we want to share a meaningful experience with the community and the guests who have been part of Amaranta's journey so far.”

Meanwhile, Akbar, Official Partner from Sekelana, hopes this event can become a space for the public to take a moment of rest from their routines and enjoy a more meaningful moment.

“We want to bring an experience that not only benefits the body, but also refreshes the mind. Walking together as the sun begins to set offers a different experience and a closer connection with nature,” said Akbar.

Embracing a slow & mindful outdoor activity concept, the Amaranta Sunset Trail Walk offers an inclusive, non-competitive experience. There is no podium or race ranking, as the main purpose is to enjoy the journey, the togetherness, and the natural beauty along the route.

Every participant will receive a range of attractive amenities, including an exclusive t-shirt (depending on the chosen package), a goodie bag, an ethnic medal, a bib number, refreshments, documentation, a meal box, a water station, a doorprize, night entertainment, a snack corner, and medical support.

Registration is open with two package options:

  • IDR 185,000/person (without jersey)
  • IDR 360,000/person (with Exclusive T-Shirt)

As part of the 5th Anniversary celebration of Amaranta Prambanan Yogyakarta, this event is expected to become a moment of togetherness that brings communities, travelers, and the public together in a single experience connecting people, nature, and culture.

Through this event, Amaranta Prambanan Yogyakarta hopes to continue encouraging the growth of nature-, culture-, and community-based tourism in the Prambanan area, while delivering an experience that leaves a lasting impression on every participant.

“Five years of Amaranta has been a journey of creating experiences and memories. Through the Amaranta Sunset Trail Walk, we want to celebrate that journey together with the community. Every step we take at sunset not only takes us along a beautiful trail, but also reminds us to better appreciate nature, culture, and the moments of togetherness that are often overlooked amid our busy lives,” closed Adham Kristanto, Marketing Communication of Amaranta Prambanan Yogyakarta.
