As promised yesterday, this post will deal with the first subject of our “Introducing you to Lovina Bali” scheme: the Singsing Waterfall. It is located at Banjar Labuhan Haji in Buleleng, Bali.
Now, we suppose that no one would object when we say that Singsing is an interesting name. Unfortunately, although it would be undoubtedly really amazing otherwise, the name does not mean that the waterfall can sing or that it can produce harmonious melodies like a song. However, Singsing Waterfall is still a pretty amazing place nonetheless, and it would do you good to visit it during your trip to Lovina.
In terms of size and the general sense of scale, the Singsing Waterfall does not really stand out. It is actually pretty low-key and humble, but that is just part of the overall charm—you just cannot help but to appreciate it and feel its irresistible allure that tempts you to delve into your swimming gear and jump in. In fact, seeing that everyone need to trek a bit to reach the waterfall in the first place, so not a lot of people can resist the temptation to refresh themselves with a good dip inside the waterfall’s pool—so be sure to bring spare change of clothes! (and mind the fact that the water can be f-f-f-f-f-reeezing!)
There are actually two set of waterfalls in Singsing: one is about few hundred meters from the nearest village establishment and for the other one you need to go a bit deeper inside. In both of them you can swim around although the pool on the second waterfall is deeper so you have more leeway to dip and playing around.
“But wait,” some might say, “We have to trek to go there?” Well yes, but really, these are the kind of views that you can enjoy when you are trying to get to the waterfall:
Even if you are not particularly fond of trekking, we recommend that you try it anyways. It is good to move your body every once in a while and dipping inside a refreshing pool of waterfall after working a bit of a sweat is just not something you can do in typical circumstances.
During summer time (in Bali, generally this refer to the period of May-September), the volume of the waterfall may be reduced a little bit, although the trade-off is that it would be easier to walk around. Do not worry though; you can still take a dip inside its pool if you are so inclined.
How to get there? Generally the most logical route is to go to the Tigawarsa Village using two-wheeled vehicles and then proceed to walk from there following the already laid out direction signs.
Singsing Waterfall is but just a small taste of what Lovina can offer to you. Look forward to discover more in this blog!
As you probably already aware, KAGUM Hotels has a big plan for this year in Bali. The planned opening of our luxury Bali villa, Gino Feruci Villa Lovina Bali on April 2012 will mark the second establishment in Bali that is managed by our company. But while “Bali” certainly needs no introduction, does the name “Lovina” ring any bell to you?
Lovina is an area located in northern Bali famous for its very accommodating atmosphere that Bali tourists can soak in. You can do all sorts of fun stuff (like the pictured Dolphin tours) and visit lots of interesting locations in Lovina, so it would be dandy if, aside from the usual places like Kuta Bali or Legian Beach, you can schedule Lovina too in your next Bali holiday visit.
Our blog will try to contribute a little in familiarizing the charms of Lovina Bali to you by giving you highlights of places that you can visit there. Singsing Waterfall is going to be our first contestant, followed by other interesting places such as Buyan / Tumblingan Lake, and of course, the aptly named Lovina Beach. Look forward to it!
