Kala Waeh White Water Rafting // A tourist destination with fun recreational facilities

Good night to all my beloved hive friends ♥️

Kala Waeh white water rafting is one of the popular tourist destinations in Takengon city, actually there are a lot of white water rafting in Takengon city but Kala Waeh white water rafting is my choice this time, as we all know, this white water rafting tourist attraction offers a very exciting sensation and also stimulates our adrenaline, and will be an experience that will never be forgotten. The path that we will pass when riding this white water rafting is a river located in Peusangan village, and what is even more interesting is the natural atmosphere around the river which is still very natural with a cool natural atmosphere.

This is a trip that I did a few weeks ago, I think this experience is very interesting for me to share here because it is filled with excitement and happiness, and I also want to invite all my friends to feel what I felt in that experience, every second that passed was filled with excitement, especially since the city of Takengon is one of the paradises on earth in Aceh Province.

From the center of Takengon we only need about 30 minutes to get to the Kala Waeh rafting destination, of course this is a distance that is not too far and also not too close, but this trip will not feel long because we will be accompanied by beautiful natural views such as views of mountains and small rivers. This rafting destination is also very close to Kala Temu Park, so the trip there will be a valuable experience because you can explore various good and amazing tourist attractions

This is the Lukup Badak tourist destination,this tourist destination is very famous in the city of Takengon because in the past this was one of the places that managed to attract hundreds of thousands of visitors every year, but now this Lukup Badak tourist destination has been abandoned, and the reason I don't know.

Arriving at the Kala Waeh rafting location, my friends and I immediately parked our motorbikes in the parking lot provided there and after that we immediately walked towards the ticket purchase area to book a boat, Kala Waeh rafting also offers two options, namely semi-extreme and family, for visitors who are brave and looking for more challenges they can choose extreme class rafting, but at that time we chose to take the family class rafting, because at that time we wanted to enjoy the natural atmosphere around the river more calmly.

A little information about family class rafting, in this class we will cover a distance of about 5 kilos with a duration of about 1 hour, and the price for this family class rafting is priced at IDR 80,000 in Indonesian currency per person or equivalent to the price of 23 hive at this time, this is a price that is not too expensive and not too cheap, in my opinion this is a price that is very commensurate with the satisfaction that we will get later.

One boat may only fit about 6 visitors, plus one or two skippers or rafting guides, so the total can fit 8 people, in this family class we will sail the river slowly but also full of challenges for those who have never been rafting before. This is my second experience and at this moment everything went according to my expectations.

On this trip, I also brought my girlfriend, who will be my wife next year (please pray for her). She's a very kind woman who accompanies me on every trip. After completing all the requirements,we immediately rushed onto the boat, and the adventure began.

It was at this moment that all the amazing things happened, on this slow moving boat we could enjoy the natural atmosphere that was so calm and beautiful, the cool atmosphere in the city of Takengon made the atmosphere even more exciting and challenging, not only that because when we sailed this river we could also see beautiful natural views such as mountains and rice fields, we could also see lots of activities of the residents there who work as farmers, and there were many other amazing views

This is a bridge that connects the villages, in the middle of this river we can see the view very clearly. The weather at that time was also very suitable, namely not too cloudy and not too hot, so that when we sailed this river we could enjoy everything that happened to our heart's content.

With a distance of 5 km, of course we can navigate the river in various conditions, starting from fast and slow river conditions, and passing through large rivers to small river conditions, the thing that made me nervous was when the boat hit large rocks, but the guide said that it was a normal thing and of course safe.

A stallion grazing on the riverbank was also a beautiful sight at that time, because honestly in my area (Bireuen City) it is very rare for people to keep horses. The boat continued to sail along the river until we arrived at an area that I thought was very amazing, because in this area there were so many lush trees that looked like a natural roof for this river, this sight made me very fascinated at that time.

Not only our boat, because in the middle of this adventure we managed to meet several other rafting boats, all of whom really enjoyed this adventure.

If we want to swim in this river, we only need to ask the skipper to stop the boat, there are no limits, we can do anything as long as it is still in the safe category, don't worry, these skippers are very experienced people.

Apart from functioning as a white water rafting route, this river is also a source of water for all purposes, from a water source for agriculture, a source of drinking water, to several other needs.

The boat continued to sail along the river, and so did time,before we knew it, we had traveled 5 km,finally, we arrived at the pick-up point,here visitors will be taken back by car to the starting point.
