In this leg's Roadblock, one team member had to take part in the labour-intensive sulfur mining operation, where they had to collect and carry sulfur slabs using two baskets on a pole to the crushing area. Then, they had to crush the slabs into smaller blocks, pack them inside sacks and carry them to the weighing area. Once they had collected 80 kilograms (180 lb) of sulfur, they would receive their next clue.
This season's final Detour was a choice between Dragon Horse or Human Bull. In Dragon Horse, teams had to participate in a traditional art of Jaran Kencak, where they had to fully decorate and dress up a horse typically used in a wedding ceremony procession. Once approved by the judge, they would go to the procession and ride on a horse-drawn carriage before receiving their next clue from a newlywed couple. In Human Bull, teams had to transfer a handful of rice husk across the paddy field to an empty basket on the other side. However, they had to avoid the kebo-keboan, a human dressed up as a bull, that would block their way to the basket. Once the basket was full, teams would receive their next clue.
Additional tasks
At Sanggar Genjah Arum in Kemiren, teams had to sign up for one of four departure times to enter the coffee shop the following morning. At the designated time, the teams would enter the coffee shop, where the shop's owner, Mr. Setiawan Subekti would serve them a popular Banyuwangi's coffee of Kopai Osing and also would give them their next clue.
At the Kalibendo Coffee Factory, teams emptied an 80-kilogram (180 lb) bag of coffee beans before searching for seven red-coloured coffee beans with letters of P-I-T-S-T-O-P among the coffee beans to receive their next clue.
