Palayangan River Rafting Trip

Pangalengan is a beautiful mountaneous area just an hour to the south of Bandung. This beautiful highland cromprises of tea plantations, rainforest, Pangalengan lake and Palayangan river. The weather is a bit chilly (according to indonesian standard). You can camp out just by the lake or stay at a basic lodge provided there. Rafting would be really fun but wait for the rainy season, as the quantity of the water may not be enough during dry season. It's a small river but still lots of fun and you will most def enjoy the beautiful scenery.
I put my rafting trip photos in chronological order... check it out :D

finish off with milk drinking party

Pangalengan area is infamous for the dairy farms. they're the biggest milk producer in West Java i believe. so when you visit Pangalengan you should definitely drink fresh milk straight out of the farm.
