Bored of the malls and lack of greenery in Jakarta? Want to get out of Jakarta and into the countryside nearby? Want to try and get fitter or just socialise? Come and give the Hash house harriers a try.

A bit about the hash. It is said that it is a running club with a drinking problem. Although you don't need to be either a runner or a drinker to get involved. You can walk the hash and drink soft drinks if you wish. I love it as it gets me out of Jakarta and into the countryside around Jakarta during the week and every weekend. Also it's a great mix of people from all over the world.


There are a few Hash's in Jakarta with a run in the countryside around Jakarta most days of the week.

Saturday runs

Krakatau HHH-5th Saturday of any month that has 5 Saturday's. They put on a bus to get there.

TGIS HHH- Every 2nd and 4th Saturday of the month. Contact [email protected]

Betawi HHH -Every Saturday of the month. 4pm start.

There are also midweek hashes which are mostly run from somewhere off the Jagorawi tol road. The runs start at 5pm.


Jakarta HHH (also known as the singing hash). Runs on every Monday 5pm. This is the longest running hash in Jakarta and I think Indonesia. Contact Witless Wanker - [email protected]

Jakarta hash house harriettes aka Pussy Hash run on Wednesday's at 5pm. Men are also welcome. Contact Rosita [email protected]

Batavia Hash - runs on Thursday's at 5pm. This is a men's only hash but women are welcome the last thursday of every month.

You can find them all on Facebook too.


If you aren't in Jakarta there are Hashes all over the country and the world. A big part in my decision making when i move within Indonesia is if they have a good hash ;)
Big hashing places I know outside of Jakarta are Bali, Lombok, Semarang, Makassar, Medan, Yogyakarta, Bandung , Balikpapan and I'm sure there are many more good hashes.
The best think about moving to somewhere with a active hash is that you know you'll have a group of like minded people from the get go.

Here's an article that will give you a better idea of what it's about.http://jakartaexpat.biz/other/hashing-in-jakarta/

Oh wow. I didn't realise they had weekend hash groups. 5pm on a week day was always too hard for me.

In Thailand I used to regularly join the Bike Hash, one weekend every month out of town... do they have one here? I'm not sure they do.
 
No bike hash but some take mountain bikes sometimes. Usually if sporting a knee injury.
