The name is often mentioned, but I've never really been there before. Finally, without much thought, I went with my wife - @DeviIswanti - to enjoy the natural atmosphere that is said to make my mind cool. But... is it really that worth it?
• 🛵 Riding Matic, Together to Nature
We left home around 10am, riding our beloved Vario 160... The weather was sunny, the wind was quite cool, and the road was not too crowded...
Once you enter the Sentul area, the road starts to fill with trees and the air becomes fresher. The further we went, the cooler and calmer it felt...
Once you enter the Gunung Pancar area, the road turns into dirt and a bit rocky, but it's still safe for matic bikes.
For yourself , do you prefer a smooth ride to your destination , or do you prefer a little challenge to make it more memorable...?
• 🌿 Welcomed by the Peaceful Pine Forest🏞️🤩
As soon as you arrived, you were immediately greeted by rows of high pine trees... It feels like entering another world. Quiet, cool, and far from the noise...
My wife and I just stayed for a while, standing, taking a deep breath while enjoying the atmosphere... Sometimes we don't need much activity. Just standing in nature and feeling the wind, that's enough to make our hearts cool...
When was the last time you stayed in a quiet place and felt your mind really calm?
• 🔫 The Excitement of Paintball Rides
Well, this is what surprised me - in the midst of that calmness, there are also paintball rides!
So if you come in a group, you can really try playing paintball among the pine trees. The place is really suitable for that, it feels like playing in a natural battle arena.
My wife and I didn't play, because we came to find a calm atmosphere. But from afar, it looks really exciting.
Perfect for those of you who want to combine a nature vacation and challenging activities.
If you go to a place like this, would you rather be relaxed or action-packed like paintball?
💸 Ticket Prices and Facilities
The entrance fee is still wallet-friendly - at the time it was IDR 15,000 per person, and motorcycle parking was only IDR 5,000...
Public facilities are also available: there are toilets, seating, and a clean area to rest. Nothing fancy, but comfortable enough...
Most importantly, this place is unspoiled and not too crowded. This place is perfect for those who want to escape from the hustle of the city for a while...
Do you think the ideal tourist spot should have complete facilities , or is it simple enough as long as you get the feel?
• 🧘♂️ Not Just a Walk
For me, Gunung Pancar is more than just a place to go for a walk. Here we can rest our minds, chat casually, and even just be alone while listening to the wind and the sounds of nature...
Devi and I had a long chat while standing under a tree. It felt different, like we were chatting in another world of calm and peace...
Sometimes simple things like that make us closer and calmer... Have you ever had a moment like that? Not planned, but turned out to be the most memorable thing...?
🏕️ Can Camping Too
Oh yes, for those who like camping, there is also an area to put up tents.
If you're the type who likes to sleep in nature, listen to the sounds of the night, and wake up to the morning mist, this place can be an interesting spot...
But if you're like me - who just wants to come, enjoy the atmosphere, and go back - no camping is fine. You'll still get a great feel of nature.
Do you prefer real camping, or just a leisurely walk to enjoy the atmosphere of the forest?
• ✍️ Going Home with a Light Head
Finally, after enjoying the atmosphere, Devi and I decided to go back. Not too long there, but enough to make my mind fresher and my heart lighter.
**Gunung Pancar is not an exciting place. It gives us space to breathe, to be quiet, to think, and to have an honest conversation with ourselves - and our partner...
If you're looking for a place that's cool , calm , and not too far from Jakarta , maybe it's time for you to try Gunung Pancar too...
