Teduh Glamping Bondowoso: Stay in the Middle of Nature, Bathe in Sendang, and Coffee by the River

Staying in the middle of the bamboo forest, accompanied by the sound of the river crashing and the breeze from the foot of Mount Raung, that's what I felt when I went on vacation to Teduh Glamping Bondowoso. This place is not just an ordinary camping location but an unforgettable experience to merge with the countryside. The location is in Rejo Agung Village, Sumberwringin District, a cool area that is on a strategic path to the Ijen Crater Tourism Park.

Teduh Glamping Bondowoso offers a charm that pampers all the senses. In the morning, the aroma of arabica and robusta coffee from the local farmer's garden fills the air. Meanwhile, the sound of water flowing from the natural sendang invites anyone to soak their feet or even take a bath directly there. The locals believe that bathing in this sendang can make you younger, a legend that piqued my curiosity.

The attraction of Teduh Glamping Bondowoso is not only its sustainable nature but also the typical rural atmosphere that is very felt. Here, I tasted apem soup, klepon, and pukis served warm by the river. It felt like going back to childhood, simple but happy. The friendly and sincere impression of the local residents made me feel at home, as if I were returning to my hometown.

The most fun thing is all that beauty can be enjoyed at a very affordable price. The entrance ticket is only IDR 5,000 with no parking fee, and if you want to stay, there is a choice of tent rental packages from IDR 50,000 to IDR 300,000 depending on the desired facilities. I myself chose the complete package, because who could resist sleeping by the river, a warm corn barbeque, and breakfast in the middle of nature? A temptation that cannot be resisted.

As soon as I arrived at the location, I was immediately greeted by a row of brightly colored glamping tents that faced directly the clear river. The atmosphere of peace was immediately felt. The first activity I did was to go down a small river while soaking my feet. The water is fresh and clean, as it comes from unpolluted mountain sources.

Soon, I saw some visitors taking a bath in the Sendang. At first I was hesitant, but eventually I went along too, because he said it could make you younger! The water is cold but refreshing. Plus the calm nature atmosphere, it feels like a natural therapy that soothes the body and mind.

In the afternoon, we enjoyed warm coffee made by local farmers while sitting in the bamboo gazebo. Here, time seems to slow down. There is no vehicle noise; only the sounds of nature and the jokes of other visitors are heard. At night, we lit a campfire and roasted the corn that was included in the glamping package. The clear, star-studded sky became the most romantic entertainment of the night.
