You gotta witness this beauty! It's worth all the money and time!
I went there on Feb (raining season) which is not a good time to go because this attraction kinda depends on the weather.. it need the sun light to get the view of the sun ray inside the cave.. Me and Hubby went there by car. We booked the tour from one of reliable travel agent in Yogya. They arranged our car rental and trip into the cave. It was 2 hours driving from Yogya city to the site. You gonna find bumpy road when entering the location. There's no sign board or so, that's why booked this trip from travel agent is recommended. There are shower and changing rooms in the location. It was a well-managed place. You gonna find the shower all clean and neat. Bring your own soap shampoo towel etc. You gotta need socks for wearing the sharing boots they provided. Be ready to get dirty, muddy, wet, tired and happy! :) The depth of the cave is about 60 m take or give. They will descent you down and lift you up using rope. They're capable and I felt safe. Totally. Just don't look down if you are afraid of height. No climbing skill needed, just need to be in a fit condition. The trip into and outta cave took about 90 mins, it depends on how many people are in your groups. You gotta experience this trip into the cave and see yourself the sun ray the light of heaven. You can hear underground river flowing so hard. Amazing. If you aren't really an active person (never hike or climb before), your thighs might trembling. Lots of steep trail. There is a certain spot that completely pitch black so you need to bring your own flashlight otherwise you should wait the guide to come to you. They also provide you lunch box. Local food but taste good enough. Booked the tour in advance and make sure the travel agent is reliable. If you wanna know the one I booked, DM me I'll reply. :)

The best place to go in jogja
My trip to jomblang Cave was outstanding, it think the cave is underrated. The 280m long trekking through the dark and slippery jungle cave was a life time experience. And dont forget the zip line from which we get down and up the 50m tell cave! The price of the cave is.... I will not say anything but it is complete worth it! I never thought that I will see something like this in johns.
