Waterfall Tour 8 Hours
Firstly from Senggigi, we are heading to Pusuk Pass. Pusuk is high and
cool mountain pass along the main road to the road is famous for its
views and tropical monkeys that wait by the side of the road waiting for
snacks from passers by. There is a restaurant for light snacks and to
enjoy the fantastic natural panorama. Then, trailing the same main road,
at last we arrive at Senaru traditional village as our second visit of
the day.
Senaru village is a humble village which is dotted with old houses –
maintained traditionally till nowadays as the perpetuation of Islam
Wektu Telu religion heritage and the waktu telu religion is still being
practiced by an estimated 5000 people just in Bayan itself including
this villagers. Wektu Telu religion signifies the complex mixture of the
three religions that comprise Wektu Telu: Balinese Hindhuism, Islam and
Animism. Members of the Wektu Telu religion regards themselves as
Muslims, although they are not officially accepted as such by mainstream
Muslims. After this, then we are heading back down to the two waterfalls
as our main activity of the day.
Those towering waterfalls are Sindang Gila and Tiu Kelep waterfall.
Sindanggila is considered smaller than Tiu Kelep but its peculiarity is
that it seems it cut through in the middle of the waterfall by a dike
line is only to find that the more you are exploring down the river line
off the main waterfall, the more you will encounter many other small
waterfalls streaming down the dike line. After this, we are trailing up
the irrigation steps and follow the ditch line and pass the brooks to
get to Tiu Kelep. Tiu Kelep is regarded the biggest waterfall in Lombok,
on its base is the pool which sending chilly and cool water for the
swimmers and according to Lombok belief it will keep you young once you
probe its chilly waters.
After that, then we are going back to some restaurant in senaru to take
some respite. Then, we continue down to Islam Waktu Telu mosque is our
last resort of our program of the day. Islam is said to have first
arrived on Lombok at Bayan, and Bayan’s mosque, 300 years old, is
thought to be the oldest on the island. End of our service.
