This 3.5-mile roundtrip (5km) trek in Manggis Village is a journey through verdant landscapes, leading to the stunning Jagasatru Waterfall, a secluded treasure nestled in the island's lush jungles. The adventure begins as we venture into the community's food forest, descending towards a river crossing, then ascending towards the surrounding hills.

While certain stretches of the route can be notably steep, and have steep stairs, the trail eventually levels out to flat road. Once you arrive at the waterfall, you’ll have a chance to take a dip in the shallow pools and cool off if you wish.

The site is divided into two unique sections: a consecrated area dedicated to community ceremonies and purification rituals, and a section of the waterfall that welcomes all visitors. In the sacred area, a local priest will preside over the purification ceremonies, leading participants through a ritual of cleansing both body and spirit with sacred water.
