My holiday trip this time was very long and required many stops for my wife and I to rest and there were more than 10 rest areas and other interesting places that I deliberately stopped at to stretch my stiff muscles and my waist which was already feeling hot from being too long. on my motorbike. After passing through many rest areas, I stopped at an interesting place in one of the cities I passed, namely Sidikalang City, which is still part of the North Sumatra Province of Indonesia.
This place is a tourist spot located on the side of the main road, precisely on the Sumatra-Sidikalang highway. This place is a favorite place for travelers who are going to destination areas which are still very far away. So the splash of the Lae Pendaroh waterfall is a bit of a medicine for tourists who pass through this area.
The water discharge released from the Lae Pendaroh waterfall is always the same and the water discharge does not decrease either in the long dry season or the rainy season. The origin of the water from this waterfall does not come from the mountains but from the river flow above it, so that the river flow flows and goes down to the river flow below it and to reach the river flow below it, this waterfall flows so that if you Seeing that the water coming out of this waterfall is brownish, that is the color of the river above it, but when the water is in the lower river flow, the water becomes clear.
Splashes of water hit by the wind from this waterfall landed on my body, it was a little wet but I enjoyed it, because it was very fresh on my body after the sweat that had filled my body after the long journey before arriving at this place. I'm sure that if possible it would be allowed Many visitors want to test their mental abilities here by jumping from the top of the river or the bridge, but because there are restrictions and it is very dangerous because the river below the waterfall is a collection of very slippery rocks and that is also included in the in the abyss.
However, this waterfall is very popular among visitors here, the air is cool, the view is beautiful with hilly areas and green trees and the sound of the water is soothing. To enjoy this natural beauty you don't need to dig deep into your pockets and it's relatively free. We are only asked for a donation of Rp. 3000 to park your vehicle at this place and you can take as many photos as you like in this waterfall area, but to take photos at this place you also have to be careful because this is a cross road so lots of trucks with large loads pass through this road.
With such beautiful views, if you pass by the Lae Pandaroh waterfall, won't you stop and relax for a moment in the hut that has been provided? Taking a few photos and immortalizing the moment is much better than none at all, right? So, if you visit North Sumatra and pass through Sidikalang City, stop for a moment and buy Sidikalang's specialty black coffee which is very fragrant. Greetings from Tomidiwirja Indonesia
