What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Curug Luhur offers a beautiful natural setting with a striking waterfall and refreshing pools, making it a decent spot for a quick visit or morning ride. However, visitors should be aware that facilities can be basic and poorly maintained, and the entrance fee might be considered high by some for the current condition.
"Quite pricey for its kind, 50k/pax on weekend (incl motorcycle parking).
The spot is decent enough for morning ride/motorbike touring destination, but don’t expect any good facilities since the area are mostly poorly maintained. The toilet is spooky, and the tend/hoods are all traditionally made from bamboo (safe enough to store your bags and belongings). For 50k entrance fee, I expected something more from this place, which emphasizes my 4 star rating, based on my experience.
The food stalls are available around the tend, and just like any other curug, they mostly serve soft drinks and instant noodles (15k for a bowl of indomie).
However, the place is easily accessible, no hiking required unlike any other curug. The water is clean, as well as the air quality. If you’re looking for a waterfall for your morning ride destination, you might consider this as one of the available option."

"Awful place. First you need to pay a lot to get in, then it’s like going to a derelict water park - and most of it hides the view of the waterfall. Avoid!"
