6 Choices Of Waterfall In Banyumas
Nature tourism in Banyumas is yet charming and refreshes your mind. Since Banyumas Regency is located in the highlands, it has many waterfalls or commonly called curug. From the slopes of Mount Slamet to the hills on the outskirts of town. From those that are easy to reach to those that need the effort to see them. All waterfalls have their uniqueness. Here are six choices of the waterfall in Banyumas to be visited:
CURUG CIPENDOK
Cipendok Waterfall is located in Karangtengah Village, Cilongok District. Quite far from downtown Purwokerto. To get here, you also have to use a private vehicle, either two or four wheels, because there is no public transportation to the location. What makes Cipendok Waterfall unique is the story behind the name Cipendok and its height which reaches more than 90 meters. With that height, Cipendok Waterfall is the highest waterfall in Banyumas.
CURUG GOMBLANG
This waterfall with a swift water flow is located in Kalisalak Village, Kedungbanteng District. It takes about 40 minutes from downtown Purwokerto to get to Curug Gomblang. In addition to the swift flow of water, the road to the waterfall is overgrown with tall, shady trees that make it different from the others.
CURUG SONG
The southernmost waterfall in Banyumas is not on the slopes of Mount Slamet. Precisely in Kalisalak Village, Kebasen District. Among all the waterfalls, Curug Song is perfect for holidays with family, especially those with small children. Because there are many games for their children.
CURUG NANGGA
Waterfall with one flow of water is ordinary, what if there are 7? This is the main attraction of Curug Nangga because it has 7 steps of water flow. The location is also unique because it faces terraced rice fields. Make sure the vehicle is working properly before heading to Curug Nangga because the road is quite challenging. Nangga Waterfall is located in the western part of Banyumas, precisely in Petahunan Village, Pekuncen District.
CURUG BAYAN
Want to reach the waterfall but lazy to walk? You may go to Curug Bayan. Visitors do not need to walk far because the location is on the edge of the main road. The road to the location is not too uphill and is very good. Curug Bayan is also close to the Baturraden Tourism Area, to be precise in Ketenger Village, Baturraden District. The unique thing offered by Curug Bayan is the villas around Curug Bayan. If you stay at the villa, of course, you get a refreshing view of the waterfall.
CURUG TELU
One location with several attractions is Curug Telu. Apart from Curug Telu, there are Sendang Bidadari and Kedung Pete. At Sendang Bidadari we can enjoy a waterfall covered in cliffs. And at Kedung Pete visitors can swim in the river. While at Curug Telu we can enjoy the view of 3 adjoining waterfalls. Quite close to the Baturraden Tourism Area, Curug Telu, to be precise is in Karangsalam Village, Baturraden District.
