Description

Gunung Argowayang (approx. 2,197 m) is the fifth-highest peak of the Anjasmoro massif in East Java, sitting within the Raden Soerjo Grand Forest Park (Tahura) conservation area. Its summit straddles the borders of Malang, Jombang, and Kediri regencies on the western side of the Anjasmoro range, near the Arjuno-Welirang complex. Argowayang is very rarely climbed: a faint southern route from Ngebrong (Pujon) crosses farm fields and a densely vegetated ridge to an unmarked top, while the wider Anjasmoro range is officially closed to hikers as protected forest. Reported elevations vary between sources (2,162–2,197 m).
