Bangka and Belitung are two islands easily accessible from Jakarta over a weekend. Whilst there are no peaks with over 1,000 metres of prominence in the province, the highpoints of the two main islands are both good half-days out. The islands are better-known for their beaches, and there are some good places to stay on the coasts of both islands. At the time of writing (2018) there is a daily Wings Air flight connecting the two islands which means you can visit both in the same trip, though this might be best done over 3 days rather than a regular weekend.
