The Hidden Gem of Probolinggo
Nestled at the foot of Mount Argopuro in East Java, Hyang Darungan Waterfall is a serene and secluded destination waiting to be explored. Located in Bremi Village, Probolinggo, this natural wonder lies along the western trekking route to Mount Argopuro — renowned as the longest trekking trail in Java.
Trekking to Hyang Darungan Waterfall
To reach Hyang Darungan Waterfall, visitors embark on a scenic 1-hour trek from the Air Dingin shelter camp, the first basecamp on the Argopuro trail. The path winds through lush farmland and plantations, offering a refreshing journey surrounded by mountain air and verdant landscapes.
A Dual Cascade in the Heart of Nature
Hyang Darungan features two distinct waterfalls — the upper and lower falls. The upper cascade flows into a crystal-clear pool, so pure that the Keliling Nusantara team confidently drank from it during their 2014 visit. The lower waterfall is more frequently visited by locals, especially on weekends, offering a tranquil spot for relaxation and nature appreciation.
Untouched Beauty in a Tourist Village
Despite being located within a designated tourist village, Hyang Darungan remains relatively unknown — even among Indonesian travelers. This lack of mass tourism has preserved its pristine condition, making it a favorite among Probolinggo locals and Mount Argopuro hikers seeking solitude and natural charm.
Affordable Entry, Rich Experience
The entrance fee to Hyang Darungan Waterfall is just IDR 3,000, making it one of the most budget-friendly nature attractions in East Java. Along the way, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of local agriculture, breathe in the crisp mountain air, and interact with the warm and welcoming residents of Bremi Village.
