Discover Ngantang: Reservoir, Landscapes, and Durian

Around Ngantang, you’ll find a range of travel interests: Waduk Selorejo focuses on reservoir history and activities on the water, while Desa Wisata Mulyorejo combines mountain views with agricultural land and village traditions. Kampoeng Wisata Durian adds a look at durian cultivation to these themes.

Waduk Selorejo: History and Experiences

Waduk Selorejo in Desa Pandansari was built in 1963 and inaugurated by President Soeharto in 1970. Its construction and inauguration mark two different milestones in the reservoir’s history. These dates provide a historical context for the body of water and a concrete starting point for travelers who want to learn about the reservoir’s history as well as enjoy the scenery.

A suspension bridge at Waduk Selorejo connects the swimming pool area with the culinary center. A report from 2026 also describes motorboat trips across the reservoir. The bridge links two named areas, while the boat trip takes you across the water. If you plan to take a motorboat trip, check in advance whether it is available during your travel dates.

Desa Wisata Mulyorejo: Landscape and Tradition

Desa Wisata Mulyorejo is located near Waduk Selorejo, along a main road, and offers views of mountains and agricultural land. These agricultural areas are also connected with preserving local village traditions. This brings the relationship between agriculture and village life into view, alongside the scenery. In contrast to the activities at the reservoir, Mulyorejo offers a different focus: mountain views, farmland, and village traditions. When planning your outings, you can decide whether to prioritize scenery and village traditions or activities on the water.

Kampoeng Wisata Durian: A Look at Cultivation

At Kampoeng Wisata Durian in Dusun Kasin, Desa Jombok, Kecamatan Ngantang, an educational tour leads through the durian orchard. Visitors can pretend to be durian farmers. This makes cultivation a hands-on topic and distinguishes the experience from the agricultural land in Mulyorejo: here, the focus is on a specific fruit and its production. A report from 2024 lists durian fruit from Dusun Kasin and various products made from it among the offerings. If you plan to take the tour or are interested in the products, check in advance whether visits are possible and what is currently available.
