Campuhan Waterfall popular with Foreigners

Campuhan Waterfall is becoming immensely popular with tourists of late, mainly from overseas, and on weekends visitor numbers increase exponentially.
According to I Nyoman Juwita, a tourist guide from Mengwi, Badung, he always brings his guests to the waterfall. Even though it was not on the visit plan they love to enjoy the natural nuance of Campuhan Waterfall, located close with Gitgit Waterfall. “Campuhan Waterfall has actually competed with Gitgit Waterfall for some time” he said.
A Dutch tourist, Juwita, is very fond of the area around Campuhan Waterfall and always comes to visit when in Bali. This natural tourism attraction is located at Gitgit sub village, Sukasada sub district, Buleleng, about 50 Km from Denpasar. Natural panoramas and breezy air make the waterfall unique. Moreover, the tourism organizer of this attraction continuously arranges tours along the steep road to the waterfall.. It’s about 1 km from the main road. The pure and fresh water is often used by tourists for bathing.
Sujana, a tourist guide from Kedonganan, Badung, said his guests who stay in Kuta ask him to take them to Campuhan Waterfall. Another highlight of Campuhan are the cool breezes. Tourists are free from peddlers and unrestricted entering fees make tourists openly donate their money, sometimes spending more than at other tourist objects.
Entering Campuhan Waterfall is completely safe with local guides always very friendly, and according to Darta, security at Campuhan Waterfall is good and he is practically glad about the increasing visits. Many tour guides bring their guests to visit Campuhan Waterfall and the guest is always keen to take a walk while enjoying the natural panorama. The management of this tourist attraction is totally organized by the local village. (BTN/ast)
