This waterfall has only one stream, unlike Tumpak Sewu, which has several. However, the beauty of this waterfall lies in its height, reaching tens of meters. Furthermore, its location in the middle of the forest makes it very natural. Many tourists are willing to come here, even if they have to enter the forest. Although not too far from Malang City, access is not easy. The natural beauty of this place is a unique attraction for tourists, even those who travel on difficult routes. Walking in the Waterfall Area The story behind Coban Glotak's name is as interesting as its name. Locals say the place is called "Glotak" because of the sound of the waterfall. The water rushing over the rocks produces a loud booming sound. In Javanese, this sound is often called "glotak glotak" (chattering). That is why this waterfall is known as Coban Glotak. However, when tourists are at the waterfall, they usually hear the roar of rushing water. They may not hear the splashing of water hitting the rocks. This could be because the rock beneath the waterfall has been eroded, forming a pool. |

They sometimes have to cross a fast-flowing river. Although not deep, the current is strong enough to flow gracefully between the rocks. Even during the day, the weather is not too hot, as the forest remains quite shady. Preparing your belongings is crucial, as there are not many vendors near the waterfall. To navigate the watery and slippery forest terrain, always wear comfortable clothing and waterproof, non-slip footwear. |
