Widosari Peak, Ngargosari, Samigaluh, Kulon Progo
May 19, 2015
Last week, i went to Widosari Peak with my friend. Took
some pictures in the early morning, it was very exciting. Started from Yogyakarta
at 04.45 am and reached Widosari Peak at 06.35 am. The atmosphere was very
fresh and quiet. Early morning always become my choice to go to somewhere new,
enjoy the place, and take pictures.
Widosari Peak
is one of many tourism places, in Samigaluh. Located in Ngargosari village, Samigaluh,
Kulon Progo, this new tourism place wasn’t too crowded. The peak can be reached
by tracking about 10 minutes from parking area. When reaching Widosari Peak, we
will be able to enjoy Menoreh green hills. We can enjoy the beautiful sunset scene
when the sun goes down. Combinations between green hills, dusk, and sunset will
amaze the tourist. Located near from Kukusan Peak, Widosari Peak hasn’t so
popular as Kukusan Peak. It’s because in Kukusan Peak we can see sunrise scene as
beautiful as sunset scene, while in Widosari Peak we only get perfect sunset
scene.

Accessibility :
Widosari Peak only be reached by motorcyle or
bicycle. The road is very narrow, zigzag, and hilly. After arrive at parking
area, we continue with tracking to the
peak about 10 minutes.
Route to the location (from jogja) :
Godean street – Progo Bridge – Kenteng crossroad
(turn right) – Dekso crossroad (turn left) – Balai Desa Purwoharjo – Balai Desa
Gerbosari – Balai Desa Ngargosari - Plono t-junction (market), turn right – Nglinggo
tea garden – go straight, about 3 km – turn right (see the direction board) –
Widosari Peak
The best time to visit this place :
Early morning and afternoon are the best time to
visit this place. Fresh air, green hills, slightly fog that flow between hills,
and sunshine can be enjoyed when we visit this place at the perfect time. I
suggest you to visit this place at afternoon (at 5 - 6 pm) and you can see the
beautiful sunset scene. Sunrise at this place is not good enough, because the
sun was blocked by hills in the east.
