For the first level, it’s lowest of all the levels, which is 30m hight. The other two levels are for about 40 m.

Next one, which is looks as beautiful as the other things to do in Sukoharjo is Girimanik Waterfall. Like the Jurug Kemukus, which has about three different waterfalls, this Girimanik also has the same specifications.

The difference is, each waterfall has its own name. So, the Manikmoyo, Condromoyo, and Tejomoyo are combined together into one acttraction called Girimanik Waterfall.
