the same path with the aim to Mount Bromo, you will find a fork in the bromo

find to get to the waterfall is there a statue in the middle of the
junction, and asked the locals, ask directions go
to traditional markets Lumbang / waterfall madakaripura, then follow
the path to continue to mark the waterfall, which was a new road sign
can facilitate you to follow the direction, of which there is a statue
at the junction Lumbang market, the distance is about 10 km, while in street
signs are written statement 5 km, pretty confusing (but this is
Indonesia), be careful because the last 3 km towards the waterfall, the
path of asphalt will be slightly narrowed, and the size of the width of
one car only, the characteristics of the road, winding ,
uphill, a little hollow, but the view is presented leading to the
waterfall is quite wonderful, so tired you can pay on the way to this
waterfall.
