Tiu Kelep Waterfall
- Height: 42 meters
- Entrance Fee: Same entrance as Sendang Gile
- Swimming: Yes, shallow pool
Tiu Kelep waterfall is so famous in Indonesia, that you'll often find it displayed on tourist posters and billboards, even in Bali! It features a beautiful, diagonal spout dropping into a shallow pool surrounded by a gentle curving curtain of water.
Despite its fame, Tiu Kelep doesn't attract the Bali-scale hordes. Yes, you'll usually meet a few other travelers here but you can have it all to yourself if you visit early enough. In fact, we spent a little over an hour at Tiu Kelep just after sunrise and didn't see another soul!
You can reach Tiu Kelep via a short 15-minute hike from Sendang Gile along a recently reconstructed concrete pathway that is easy to follow.
Location: Senaru Village, Northern Lombok
Tip: Tiu Kelep is included in the epic Lombok Loop trip!
Benang Stokel Waterfall
We cruised straight towards Benang Stokel Falls and there was only one other tourist there. We pretty much had the whole place to ourselves. Three epic falls flow down into a very shallow pool. No jumping into this one.
We explored in and around the falls for over an hour even getting back behind the falls. This was just the beginning.
Next, we headed down to the ‘jumping spot’. It’s about an 11-meter waterfall into an amazing little canyon. Vines hang everywhere as light battles to reach the small creek flowing beneath the falls. As my friend was checking the depth he almost leaned on a green snake. Welcome to Lombok.
After a depth check (Always a must) and a deep breath, I decided to kick the jumps off for the afternoon. The climb out means you have to walk back through the canyon for a few minutes and do some basic rock climbing back out of the canyon. By no means hard but if you are looking for an easy ladder out this isn’t the spot.
