Sewu Waterfall in East Java, Indonesia, is indeed one of the most stunning waterfalls. 'Sewu' in Javanese means thousand-layer waterfall. These waterfalls thunderously plunge into a horseshoe-shaped jungle canyon, looking as if they fell into Jurassic Park! - 🚩Best experience: ▪️Sewu Waterfall Viewing Platform There are two levels, the second level offers a better angle to overlook the waterfall. ▪️Hike into the canyon to reach the bottom of the waterfall. The path down is right next to the viewing platform. It takes about 10-15 minutes to walk into the canyon, and then another 5 minutes to walk through the canyon to reach the waterfall. The path down is rough and quite dangerous, not highly recommended. - 📷Photography tips: ▪️Using a drone can capture the scene of Mount Semeru, the highest active volcano in Java, and Sewu Waterfall in one frame. Due to the dense surrounding jungle, be sure to pay attention to the safety of drone takeoff and landing. ▪️Aerial shots with a drone at noon can even capture the magical sight of the waterfall flow and double rainbows in one frame under the refraction of sunlight. - 🚗How to get there: ▪️It is recommended to stay in a hotel in Malang city and drive about 2 hours to Sewu Waterfall. ▪️Due to a sudden heavy rain in mid-July 2023 causing a mudslide, the essential bridge from Malang to Sewu Waterfall was destroyed and has not yet been repaired. The road is impassable, so you need to take a local motorcycle to cross the broken bridge to reach the Sewu Waterfall viewing platform. ▪️Take a local motorcycle from the motorcycle point for about 20 minutes to the entrance of the scenic area, then walk for 10 minutes to reach the Sewu Waterfall viewing platform. - 🎫Viewing platform ticket: 20k IDR (approximately 10 RMB) 🎫Waterfall bottom ticket: 10k IDR (approximately 5 RMB) ⏰Opening hours: 7:00-17:00 📣Recommended visit duration: Viewing platform 0.5-1h, hiking to the bottom of the waterfall 2-3h

tumpak sewu waterfall, A place to escape to unwind in the form of a waterfall landscape with the characteristic of having wide water like a curtain with a height of approximately 120 meters each#waterfall#2023travelwish#mytripvlog#urbanexplorer

Tumpak Sewu Waterfall is a waterfall with a height of about 120 meters. This waterfall is bordered by Lumajang Regency and Malang Regency, East Java Province.Tumpak Sewu Waterfall has a flow of water that resembles a curtain so it is included in the Tiered waterfall type. The location of this waterfall is in Sidomulyo Village, Pronojiwo District, Lumajang Regency.

Talking about natural beauty, Lumajang Regency is the place to be. In addition to having a country above the clouds, Lumajang Regency also has natural waterfalls whose beauty is not inferior to Niagara Falls in America. Tumpak Sewu Waterfall is the name. The popularity of Tumpak Sewu Waterfall as Niagara in East Java is not without reason. The wide flow of this waterfall reminds people of Niagara Waterfall. The location of these two waterfalls is also on the border. The difference is, Niagara is on the border between the United States and Canada. However, judging from the water discharge, it is very different. The beauty of the very beautiful Tumpak Sewu Waterfall invites both domestic and foreign tourists who want to see the Indonesian version of Niagara Falls firsthand. With so many tourists coming, the Lumajang Police also always comes to the location to provide a sense of security and calm for tourists. Lumajang Police Chief Adjunct Senior Commissioner of Police Muhammad Arsal Sabhan said, Tumpak Sewu Waterfall is indeed very stunning in its beauty. No wonder so many tourists come. He also said that he would help make the Tumpak Sewu or Niagara tourism object of Indonesia always safe and conducive. Not only that, he will also help so that the Tumpak Sewu tourist attraction can be increasingly known both locally and abroad. Tumpak Sewu Waterfall or also called Coban Sewu is a waterfall with a height of about 120 meters which is the most beautiful waterfall on the islands of Java and Indonesia. Tumpak Sewu Waterfall has a unique formation because it has a water flow that widens like a curtain so it is included in the Tiered waterfall type.

Tumpak Sewu Waterfall is formed in the flow of the Glidih River which has its head on Mount Semeru. #naturalwonders #beautifulsunsets #waterfall #nationalpark #beautifulsunsets#naturalwonders#nationalpark

People often go to Tumpak Sewu, and just see The Waterfall from View Point at abobe. Don’t stay at the overlook too long, because you still have to see the waterfall from below! The best lighting for this is early in the morning before the sun gets high, otherwise taking the right photos can be more of a challenge. Head down the path for about 20 minutes to reach the bottom of the ravine. The path is mostly bamboo steps with bamboo railings, and it’s a little sketchy in spots, but nothing too terrible. Just proceed carefully. Once you reach the bottom of the ravine, you’re only a 5-10 minute walk away from the main event. The towering walls on either side of the ravine let you know how tiny you are, and how epic things are about to get. There’s one shallow stream to cross, with a small bridge covering part of it. Cross the bridge, round the corner, and prepare to have your mind blown by the epic sight! This is when the scale hits you for the first time and you can’t help but feel ant-like. There are a lot of good photo spots next to the waterfall, but be aware that the rocks are very slippery and any electronics you bring within 100 yards of the falls WILL get soaked. I’d recommend bringing a dry bag to keep your camera, drone, or other electronics safe between photo sessions here. Enjoy and be safe! #waterfall#naturalwonders#hiking#nationalpark#lakes

Tumpak Sewu Waterfall is arguably Indonesia’s best waterfall. It isn’t the largest, even in East Java, but is definitely the most impressive. From above it looks like the tree of life, from below it is immensely powerful and from all angles, it is quite simply mind-blowing. Once you reach the canyon you start to get an idea of the scale of the walls. You are an ant within the gorge and you know you are about to witness something incredible. After turning the final corner you will never forget the moment you enter the cauldron at the foot of Tumpak Sewu Waterfall. It is pure magic with more than thirty different waterfalls plummeting down into the cauldron into tiny pools below. #urbanexplorer

#GetDiscountNotRelyingOnLuck #TravelIndonesia #SililTrip #OrganizeTravelTrip #BeautifulWaterfall Tumpak Sewu or known as Coban Sewu is located between Pronojiwo District, Lumajang Regency and Ampelgading District, Malang District in East Java, Indonesia. It is the most beautiful waterfall in East Java. This waterfall is located in the middle of the forest on the side of a steep cliff in the middle of a deep forest. The appearance of the waterfall, if viewed from above, will be seen as a line of water flowing through a 300-meter-high cliff, concave like a semicircle…. The lines of the waterfall are naturally thick and beautiful. But we want to walk down to see from the bottom. The way down to see the waterfall below is quite steep. There are stairs to climb down quite high but very narrow. Go up and down the same way. It took us about 45 minutes to walk down. Along the way, you will be able to admire the beautiful green nature all the way. The top is beautiful, but the bottom is even more stunning. After admiring, playing in the water, and taking pictures, it's done. The time to walk up here is a test of the body... Tired but worth it, you must go. Location: Jalan Tumpak Sewu, Besukcukit, Sidomulyo, Kec. Pronojiwo, Kabupaten Lumajang, Jawa Timur 67374 🕰️Opening hours: 07.00 - 17.00
