GRENJENGAN KEMBAR WATERFALL

Grenjengan Twins is a waterfall located in Citran Hamlet, Muneng Warangan Village, Pakis District, Magelang Regency, Central Java. Why is it called the Twin Grenjengan? Because of its location there are two waterfalls that are next to each other. The source of this waterfall comes from the Cebong river whose springs descend directly from Mount Merbabu. Before entering the waterfall, we are charged Rp. 10,000 rupiah. It is an entry ticket as well as a parking ticket. From the parking location, we have to walk about 10-15 minutes to get there. The journey from the waterfall parking location can be said to be exciting, because when we just walk we will be presented with a view of the hill, then walking again we find a tunnel overgrown with vines, perfect for taking pictures and even pre-wedding. As we enter, we find a bridge decorated with heart-shaped bamboo, after crossing the bridge we enter a very beautiful pine forest, then we arrive at the Grenjengan Kembar Waterfall. When we arrive at the waterfall we can swim and bathe as much as we like, because the place is still quiet and very nice. You can also take some photos but, don't forget to bring a rag. Due to the swift water, there is a lot of dew flying in the wind. Therefore we must often wipe our camera lens. As the name implies, this Grenjengan Twin waterfall has its own characteristics compared to other waterfalls. Because in this waterfall there is a rock that divides the flow of this waterfall into two parts. But I suggest if you visit this waterfall, you must come during the rainy season, because during the rainy season the water discharge becomes high and is suitable for swimming. #waterfall #awesomepic#beautifulsunsets#naturalwonders

TELOMOYO MOUNTAIN

Mount Telomoyo is a mountain located in the districts of Semarang and Magelang, Central Java. This mountain has a height of 1,894 m above sea level and is a strato-shaped volcano but has never been recorded to erupt Mount Telomoyo is the right destination for those of you who want to go to the top of the mountain without having to get tired of walking. That's because the peak of Mount Telomoyo can be reached by motorbike. There is asphalt road infrastructure available from the foot to the top of Mount Telomoyo that can be passed by motorbikes. The route to the top of the mountain by motorbike can be reached from the G. Telomoyo Tourism Parking Area in Ngablak District, Magelang. Indeed, you can do the trip to the top of Mount Telomoyo by riding a motorbike. However, there are a few things to consider before starting the journey. To the top of Mount Telomoyo can indeed be reached by motorbike. But still the name to the top of the mountain, the journey will still be through an uphill road. Fortunately the incline is not too steep. The journey to the top of the mountain can be reached by various types of motorbikes, from ducks to trails. Even according to the guard at the counter, automatic motorbikes can reach the top However, you should pay attention to the condition of the motorcycle. Do not let the motorcycle experience engine disturbances that make it not strong uphill. If you find engine trouble, it's better to do service before leaving. You also have to be prepared to face such road conditions. You must know the knowledge and ability to pass through the broken path. Motorcycles must also be prepared to go through damaged roads, one of which is by checking the wind pressure. Damaged roads are prone to losing balance and scratching the bottom of the motorcycle. Tires are also prone to punctures when passing through a road full of potholes, especially on tires with less air pressure. #mountain #hiking#beautifulsunsets#camping#naturalwonders

Nepal Van Java

A newly unique tourist destination. Had a chat with the native, the contour of its landscape made them adapt their housing methods. Still, you can feel its traditional vibe, and design. The village itself separated by a small creek, it does not have any stream when I was there. But I believe it will be a sight to see when the stream is up and running. Beside the sight, this place also suitable for those who like to walk, the roads and channels are like a puzzle. It encourages you to explore. How to get there? Well, I don't recommend using car based on the current situation. Best option still by motorcycle. You'll definitely parked close to the village. Other than that, this place is highly recommended. Enjoy its uniqueness. Safe travel! ⛰🌿🌲🍃 #solstice #urbanexplorer #summervacation #hikingtrails #indonesia #summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

📍Sowanan Village, Ngablak, Magelang I came here when i was at 11th grade or second year of high school. It was a really cool experience. We call it “live in”. We all come from a city center, for like a week, we will stay in a village. We will stay at the people’s house there. We go to work with them, help them with their work, eat with them, get to know their everyday activities. It’s so interesting for me. Even though i was sick there. The weather was so weird. It was so hot in the day, but so cold at night. My family (the family whose house i lived in) took me to the doctor. I still keep in touch with them. It’s been 7 years. I hope i can come back one day with my boyfriend. It was such a happy experience to live a simple life. Just blended in with the nature. #givethanks #givethanks
