Tumpak Sewu Waterfall In Lumajang
Tumpak Sewu Waterfall or popularly known as the Paradise Cliff is a tourism object presenting a stunning waterfall. Located at Sidomulyo tourism village, Pronojiwo district, Lumajang, East Java. It is 55 km to the southern. It takes approximately two hours from the city area of Lumajang.
The first thing you want to do on your Tumpak Sewu Waterfall adventure from Lumajang is to wake up early. Be at the Tumpak Sewu viewpoint before the sunrise. Although the sun won’t be on the waterfall, this is actually what you want. The fog is beautiful in the morning and creates a mystical atmosphere. In the background, Semeru Volcano will be giving you a beautiful backdrop, while Tumpak Sewu slowly comes into focus as the light increases.
From the starting point at entrance gate, you need to walk down to the main point for 15 minutes on foot through easy path. The viewpoint has a little section that is fenced off. This is a steep hill in front of the viewpoint that is quite steep. There is a path there and it isn’t super dangerous but if you do jump the fence just remember the fence is there for a reason and if you do slip you could be in some serious trouble as the drop-off is big. You can get great photos here without taking any huge risks so just be smart, enjoy the waterfall and the viewpoint.
At this point, you will witness the wonderful beauty of the Tumpak Sewu Waterfall. The cliff stands high surrounded by waterfalls. Almost half of the cliff circle surrounded by evergreen trees is so natural. Here are two spots for you capturing amazing moments with partners, friends or family.
Get down to Tumpak Sewu Waterfall on ground level before the sun rises over the waterfall. The trail is right next to the viewpoint where you were for sunrise. It takes about 10-15 minutes to walk down into the canyon and then about another 5 minutes to walk through the canyon to the waterfall.
The trail down is pretty sketchy with bamboo ladders and sections where you are walking through small streams but it is nothing too crazy. Just be prepared and definitely wear shoes, not flip-flops.
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 dropping down into the cauldron into tiny pools below.s
I advise you at this point to understand that you will get wet, it will be gusty and your camera and electronics should be put away or protected. There are several great viewpoints and rock lookouts within the canyon but do beware, these rocks are permanently wet so they are incredibly slippery.
