The Ultimate One-Day Explore Ciwidey Itinerary
Your adventure with our One Day Explore Ciwidey – Bandung tour package is packed with unforgettable experiences from start to finish.
Morning: The Journey & White Crater (Kawah Putih)
Your tour begins in the early morning at a designated meeting point in Jakarta. As the city is still waking up, we will depart via the Cipularang highway, heading towards Bandung and then onward to the highlands of Ciwidey. The drive itself is a scenic pleasure, transitioning from the cityscape to rolling hills and lush plantations.
Our first destination is Kawah Putih (White Crater), a stunning and surreal volcanic crater lake. Upon arrival, you’ll be mesmerized by its otherworldly beauty. The lake’s water, a striking shade of turquoise or milky-white, changes color with the weather, creating a constantly evolving landscape. The white volcanic soil, combined with the towering cliffs, makes for a scene straight out of a dream. Be aware of the strong sulfur scent, which is a natural part of this active volcano’s ecosystem and a powerful reminder of the earth’s raw power. You’ll have plenty of time to explore the area, take incredible photos, and simply soak in the unique atmosphere of this one-of-a-kind natural wonder.
Afternoon: Lunch & Situ Patenggang Lake
After our time at Kawah Putih, we’ll head to a local restaurant for a delicious lunch, where you can refuel with some authentic West Javanese cuisine.
Our next destination is the beautiful Situ Patenggang Lake. Located near vast, emerald-green tea gardens, the lake presents a tranquil and breathtaking view. The landscape is incredibly serene, with the cool mountain breeze and the gentle lapping of water. You can rent a boat to explore the lake, weaving your way around its small islands and taking in the panoramic views of the surrounding hills. Legend has it that the small island in the center of the lake, named “Pulau Cinta” or “Love Island,” holds a romantic tale of reuniting two lovers. It’s a perfect spot for couples and families to relax and enjoy the serene beauty. The peaceful ambiance here is the ideal way to round out your day of exploration.
Late Afternoon: The Journey Back to Jakarta
As the afternoon draws to a close, we will begin our journey back to Jakarta. With a heart full of memories and a camera roll full of beautiful pictures, you can rest and reflect on the day’s adventures.
