Pekalen River is located in between Ranu Gendang Village and Condong Village, Probolinggo, East Java. It takes approximately 3 hours from Surabaya City. This river is famous for its crystal clear water and also its magnificent sceneries.
Pekalen River's divided into three parts. Pekalen Atas, which is 12-km trip, Pekalen Tengah, 7-km trip, and Pekalen Bawah, 10-km trip. Pekalen Bawah has 32 rapids. And every rapid has its own name. The famous one is Indosat rapid. That name was given because there was an Indosat high-official who fell into the rapid. Pekalen Atas is very special to me personally. It has 55 rapids such as "Welcome", "Batu Jenggot", "Pandawa", "Rajawali", "Xtravaganza", "Triple Ace", "The Fly Matador", "Hiu", "Cucak Rowo", and "Goodbye". Also, we can see the beauty of 10 waterfalls there. And we'll pass below the waterfalls. Another great thing about Pekalen is that we can see a breath-taking scenery of caves with thousands of bats.
