 Lembah Pelangi Waterfall

Lembah Pelangi Waterfall sounds unfamiliar for either local or foreign tourists. Lembah Pelangi
Waterfall is located in Sukamaju village, Ulubelu sub district, Tanggamus district, Lampung
province, Indonesia. The access to this place is quite difficult because Ulu Belu sub district is a
remote area in Lampung with its hilly contours which make this tourist spot elusive.

Lembah Pelangi Waterfall has two levels where the waterfall on the second level has two branches.
The height of the first level waterfall is about 100 meters, while the second level waterfall is about
dozens of meters. The best enchantment of this waterfall is the rainbow which appears between the
valley and the waterfall as the name suggests. The soft flowing gurgling waterfall sounds is like a
chant of nature which can remove the tiredness of the long trip to go there. Under the waterfall,
there are several spots of warm water which can be an interesting spot for bathing.

In this place, you will be shown a panorama of natural beauty which is very interesting for every
pair of eyes seeing it. Rocky hills accompanied by leafy trees will actually soothe both your eyes.

AirTerjun Lembah Pelangi

Air Terjun Lembah Pelangi, sedikit terdengar asing di telinga para wisatawan lokal maupun luar
daerah. AIR Terjun Lembah ini terletak Desa Sukamaju, Kecamatan Ulubelu, Kabupaten
Tanggamus, Lampung. Akses jalan menuju tempat ini memang cukup sulit karena kawasan Ulu
Belu sendiri adalah satu daerah terpencil di Lampung dengan kontur berbukit membuat tempat
wisata ini sulit diraih.
Air terjun Lembah Pelangi sendiri memiliki dua tingkatan, dengan air terjun pada tingkatan kedua
bercabang dua. Tinggi air terjun pada tingkat pertama sekitar 100 meter, sementara air terjun tingkat
ke duanya sekitar belasan meter. Pesona terbaiknya adalah pelangi yang muncul diantara lembah
dan air terjun seperti namanya. Gemericik suara air terjun bagaikan nyanyian alam yang akan
menghapus penat perjalanan panjang kesana. Di bawah air terjun ini ada beberapa titik sumber air
hangat yang dapat menjadi tempat yang menarik untuk berendam.
Di tempat ini, anda akan disuguhkan panorama keasrian alam yang sangat memukau setiap pasang
mata yang melihatnya. Lingkungan bukit berbatu yang ditemani rimbunnya pepohonan benar-benar
akan menyejukkan kedua bola mata anda.
