Taman Hutan Raya Ir. H. Djuanda (Great Forest Park) is a conservation area, botanical garden, and recreational area that begins in the Dago area of Bandung and stretches nearly 30 km north, past Tangkuban Prahu to the village of Ciater.

Trekking through the Great Forest is a great way to see West Java's natural beauty
In addition to the waterfalls, the mostly pine and bamboo forest has
abundant wildlife – weasels, squirrels, monkeys, and many species of
birds.

Both the Dutch and the Japanese built an extensive cave network around
Bandung. They’re open for trekkers to explore – vendors hang out outside
the caves to rent flashlights for Rp.3000.
The trekking trail extends the entire distance. It’s one of West Java’s
most accessible treks. One popular option is to go to Maribaya by car
and trek back into Dago (6 km). This direction is downhill most of the
way.
