Plunge into North Lombok's ancient rainforest to discover two of Southeast Asia's most spectacular waterfalls — one with a legendary healing mist, the other a sheer 45-metre curtain of ice-cold water.
What to expect
The drive to Senaru village winds past clove and vanilla plantations before you enter the national park on foot. Sendang Gile's thunderous cascade greets you first — mist-drenched and magnificent. A 20-minute jungle trail then reveals Tiu Kelep, where local legend promises a year subtracted from your age for every swim beneath its fall. Your guide picnics you on a riverside boulder before a relaxed return drive.
Good to know
North Lombok waterfalls are 1.5 hours from Gili Mas Port; depart by 08:00 to be safely back by 16:00. Wear water shoes or sturdy sandals — the river-crossing approach involves slippery rocks. Park entrance ~IDR 20,000 per person.
