Feeding the Civilization
Active volcano Mount Ciremai last erupted in 1938. Although Mount Ciremai is a volcano, it has a lovely aspect, an undulating structure, several hills, and a variety of mountains. The park, which covers an area of 15,500 meters, serves as a water supply for the neighborhood. There are 156 springs dispersed throughout 43 headwaters, and 147 of them produce drinkable water. Agriculture, fisheries, industry, and drinking water all use this water.
Through Ipukan, tourists may get a bird's-eye perspective of the Ciremai mountain valley. Ipukan is 1,700 meters above sea level, which makes it simpler for tourists to observe the opposite foot of the mountain. This area is home to a variety of wildlife, including Javanese eagles and panthers. There is Cisurian Waterfall beside the valley if you're interested in water tourism. This waterfall, which is 40 meters tall, is incredibly calming to the spirit. This waterfall features a top-notch water park that is distinguished by the presence of animals.A source of life for the surrounding community
