Grojogan Pucung in Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta Special Region


People have many reasons for visiting Bantul Regency in Yogyakarta Special Region. The most common one is to explore natural attractions like beaches and waterfalls. Here is a reference. In Pundong Sub-District, tourists would find a lonely waterfall, called Grojogan Pucung! As the name suggests, the waterfall is located in Pucung Village. It resides in the midst of a forest and on the slope of Seribu Mountains. Tourists only need to conduct trekking to the west part of the mountains in order to reach the site. Due to the seclusion, beauty, and challenging route, it even gets more visitors over time.

The Nuance
The location is secluded, so Grojogan Pucung definitely offers a nice peaceful nuance to visitors. Even though tourists need to undergo trekking and pass through the forest, the reward is quite satisfying. The water discharge is stable and moderate. It gets the water from a nearby fountain, actually. Plus, the water is clean, clear, and refreshing! The size is considered moderate and it has several layers. Below the waterfall, a beautiful clear blue natural pond resides. The pond is surrounded by small trees and buses, too! It feels like a private natural pond, without a doubt! After all, not many people are seen on the site due to the seclusion.

Exploring Grojogan Pucung
The first thing to enjoy when visiting Grojogan Pucung is definitely the trekking experience. From Pucung Village, tourists should head west and pass through a forest. Have no worries. The locals have built a pathway in order to reach the location, so this challenging trip would be more comfortable. One thing, everyone should walk carefully due to the slippery surface of the land (especially during the rainy season).

Once arriving at the waterfall, tourists may see a beautiful and serene waterfall right away. Even though the water discharge is stable, it depends on the season. For a more beautiful and powerful water discharge, in this case, tourists should come during a rainy season. Here is the unique thing. The waterfall has several levels. The top level features the tallest water discharge, which is around 15 meters! It also comes with a stunning natural pond with a depth of 7 meters.

As for the consideration, everyone should come with a local guide who knows the direction well. Also, this person would give information regarding the waterfall to tourists later. For example, it is said villagers take advantage of the waterfall to irrigate their farms. They built waterways in order to lure the water to their farms, in fact. Tourists can also approach these people later, during the visit.
