Destination Story & Highlights

Highland Serenity and Panoramic Reservoir Views

Kalibiru National Park is located in the Menoreh Hills, offering a breathtaking panoramic view of the Sermo Reservoir and lush green pine forests from sturdy tree-top wooden platforms.

"Kalibiru was originally a dry and degraded forest area. Through the visionary collaborative reforestation efforts of local community groups starting in the early 2000s, it blossomed into a pioneering national model of community-based sustainable eco-tourism."

Traveler Tips
Arrive early in the morning or during the late afternoon to experience the coolest mountain air and capture perfect lighting over the reservoir.
Wear comfortable hiking shoes as there is a short, scenic uphill walk from the parking area to the viewing platforms.
Hire a local photographer at the platforms for a small fee to take spectacular, high-quality photos of you over the cliff.
