Wisata Hiking Gunung Gede

Berbicara Gunung Gede-Pangrango bisa jadi gunung yang satu ini adalah gunung yang paling sering di daki di Indonesia, tercatat kurang lebih 50.000 pendaki per tahun. Hal tersebut mungkin karena faktor lokasi yang cukup dekat dengan Jakarta dan Bandung.

Mulai 1 April 2002 untuk mengunjungi Taman Nasional Pangrango diberlakukan sistem booking, 3-30 hari sebelum pendakian harus booking dahulu. Jumlah pendaki dibatasi hanya 600 orang per malam, 300 melalui Cibodas, 100 melalui Selabintana, 200 melalui Gunung Putri. Pendaftaran pendaki hanya dilanyani di Wisma Cinta Alam kantor Balai Taman Nasional Gn. Gede-Pangrango pada hari kerja (senen-jumat) pada jam kantor. Pos Cibodas, Gn. Putri dan Salabintana sudah tidak melayani ijin pendakian. Hanya sebagai pos kontrol.

Teks & Foto : Rookie Monkey


Akhirnya saya pun berkesempatan mencoba salah satu kegiatan pengarungan sungai arus deras yang cukup memacu adrenalin, ya apalagi kalo bukan arung jeram atau rafting. 

Kegiatan arung jeram hari sabtu itu (10/12/2011) dilaksanakan di sungai Palayangan, Pangalengan, Bandung Selatan. Sungai Palayangan memiliki aliran air yang bersumber dari Situ Cileunca, sungai Palayangan sendiri mempunyai panjang lintasan sekitar  5 km dengan tingkat kesulitan/grade 3,5 dengan waktu tempuh pengarungan sekitar 1,5 jam, cukup cocok untuk pemula seperti saya.
