The Nuance
Lombongo Hot Spring is located near to Duwano Village, so it offers a rural nuance. This also explains why lots of villagers are seen on the site. Have no worries. These people are quite friendly to outsiders. Some of them would even show direction regarding the location of the ponds. Once arriving on the site, tourists may find two ponds having a similar depth and size. According to the locals, these ponds have a width of about 500 meters per square and a depth of about 2 meters. The location is surrounded by tropical trees and some local buildings. Thus, the atmosphere feels comfy there.

Exploring Lombongo Hot Spring
The management takes advantage of the natural hot spring and mixes the hot water with the fresh one in the ponds.

Actually, tourists can also choose to take a bath in a cold pond, which gets the water directly from a nearby fountain. The source is on the mountain, in fact. This is why the water is both clear and refreshing!

Still, the most common reason for visiting Lombongo Public Bathing Place is to take a bath in the hot ponds. This can be done either alone or with family members, in fact! While enjoying bathing, tourists can feel the breezy atmosphere of the tropical forest, too. On the horizon, they can witness the beautiful views of hills covered by green savannas. What a wonderful place to relax! The only consideration is related to the crowd. It is because the site becomes more crowded during weekends. Somehow, the nuance becomes less comfortable due to the presence of those people. In order to avoid discomfort, in this case, tourists must come only during regular or working days. At these times, the nuance feels more peaceful!

After bathing, tourists may continue their adventure by exploring the nearby tropical forest. During exploration, they may find some interesting natural attractions, too, in fact!
