Outdoor activities can be exhausting, especially during the fasting month. That's why it's a great idea to plan a short vacation filled with outdoor adventures before Ramadan begins. You can enjoy quality time with your family and friends, and then focus on worship during the holy month.

However, with busy schedules, it can be difficult for urban and suburban residents of Jakarta to find the time to go on faraway vacations. To answer that concern, here are recommendations for destinations around Jakarta that are suitable for a short outdoor-themed holiday.
