Cibodas, Cianjur, Puncak

Again and again.. without long long planning.. I had a trip to Bogor. On July, 14 2012, my friend(Mella, Laili, and Irwan) and I decided to go to Cibeureum Waterfall that is located at Cibodas, Cianjur, Bogor. We started our trip from Pulogadung Station by 98A bus at 9.30 AM. We started our trip so late because actually we were still confused whether to go or not. Our first destination was in Kampung Rambutan Station because the bus is in there. At 10.30 we arrived at Kampung Rambutan Station, east Jakarta to take Cianjur Bus. We were confused because we didn't know what the bus was. So we asked some people there. Suddenly, there was a bus to Cianjur. The bus is AC, and the ticket is about Rp25.000. The bus also didn't cross puncak, so we didn't take this one. Moreover, our money was limited, so we decided to take non AC bus. At 11 am, we got the bus. The destination of this bus is to Cianjur also. The bus is without AC and the ticket only Rp.15.000,-. It was cheap enough for us. We were on the way about 3 hours. Since the bus crossed Cisarua puncak, we could see the beautiful scenery there. So amazing. I miss Puncak so much. Last time I went to puncak was 6 years ago.. 

Finally, we arrived at Cianjur at 2 pm. We continued our trip by small public transportation to get the cibodas. the price of this public transportation is about Rp 2500/person. The car is yellow. So don't get the wrong car!! 

Only, 10 minutes on the way in this public car, we arrived at Cibodas.. it was very long long tripp... more than 3 hours.. We were so tired and hungry but we couldn't take a rest because we had to continue our adventure to Cibeureum Waterfall. Firstly, We entered from the route of Gunung gede Panrango. To entering, we had to pay Rp. 3000/person. Before we were hiking, we prayed first in mushola. 

After that we started our adventure to get Cibeureum Waterfall. We had to cross big forest to caught the waterfall. The route is not easy to do. Hiking is not easy to do, right? We were tired, and we took a rest more than 5 times. At half tim of the adventure, we found a blue lake. The lake is beautiful enough. We took some pictures there. 

After that, we continued our adventure. Then we Found a bridge. From this bridge, we could see teh beautiful scenery of the mountain that is covered by fog, and beatiful thatch. 

We spend 1,5 hours to caught the waterfall. At 4.30 pm, we Arrived at Cibeureum Waterfall. We were satisfied when we arrived here. 

FINALLY, we caught the waterfall after doing the exhausted hiking. We were wet completely because we played in waterfall..

15 minutes later, the keeper of waterfall said that we had to stop and downstair, because the day started dark...

We decided to eat first before go home. At 7 am, we got the AC bus, and Alhamdulillah, we must payed only Rp.15.000/person... 

We arrived at Kampung Rambutan Station at 10pm, then Arrived at home at 11 pm..

This trip was very nice trip that we did. !! I arrived at home at 11 pm, and Alhamdulillah my parents weren't angry with me. hehehehe...
