Waterfall Enchantment Saloupa Level Seven

In the hamlet Wera about 10 km from Tentena there are fascinating and beautiful natural scenery rarely we find similar views in other parts of Indonesia, his name Saloupa waterfall. Why do I say will rarely be found in other parts of Indonesia because it consists of 7 levels and in a glance that level we can see the water fall.

Towards this place is not too difficult, usually if you want to view and enjoy the scenic waterfall, required mileage even further into the hills or valleys and rocky like the waterfall in the village of Wera, Kabupan Sigi, hamlet name is Wera which are equally meaning he said the river in Da'a language (one of Kaili).

Location Saloupa waterfall can we take 4-wheel drive or 2 wheel, all the way from the town of Tentena Wera village as the center of North Pamona sub-district, Poso District, Central Sulawesi, still can enjoy the beautiful expanse of paddy fields and vast arable fields of population and row community-owned cocoa farms.

Want to go to the location of waterfalls, the local government makes a special door for entry and must be reached by walking about 200 meters to reach the waterfall directly.

Visitors can also play and bathe in this location, because the distance from each height of water fall is only about 2-4 feet then was not very strong if you want to suppress the body may be massaged by nature so-so put your body under the shower water from there down the germ- germs and dirt of our bodies will flow into Lake Poso.

What is interesting also under big stones which invalidates the water caress there are also caves that can be entered and also flooded, but because of falling water closed the existence of the cave has not been widely known to most people.

This place was rather quiet when we visited there was no duty officer who usually charge Rp 5,000 per person and other visitors also do not exist at the time of our visit so that we "strolled kale" Just go without ba-bi-bu. When you say nothing do not care I think also because in some places there are sacks plastikyang read "Dispose of trash in its place". Communities around the place is also not seen any around this waterfall along the trail even though there are also chocolate and corn crops.

When compared to my visit in October of 2010 and then debits pouring water seems to be reduced because not all stone surfaces tetutup again, but I do not even measure the pressure ....

This photo may be watching. I do not know the cause too, may not occur destruction of forests and mineral mining are not responsible in the vicinity, because when returning to the city of Tentena in front of the vehicle that took us there are 4 a convoy of trucks carrying rocks and gravel that he will dropped into Bukaka hydroelectric project in Sulewana, still in North Pamona sub-district.

Hope the government partnered with communities around tourist sites can manage this better and more vigorous promotion. I imagine how sad a time when the grace of God with the natural beauty Saloupa waterfall is only a distant memory.
