Enjoy a hot bath in a hilly and cooler area of Kendal.
Actually two waterfalls close by each, Curug Lawe and Curug Benowo (curug is Javanese for waterfall). The first part of the hike is along the side of an irrigation canal, followed by a section across the fairly rocky ground. There is the chance to see black Javanese leaf monkeys. They are usually active in the early morning.
One of the gateways to reach Mount Ungaran peak (2,050 masl).

A group of restored Hindu temples was built during the early period of the Medang Kingdom which controlled Central Java during the 8th and 9th centuries. Similar to the temples on the Dieng Plateau, they are some of the oldest Hindu structures in Java, predating both Borobudur and Prambanan. They are placed across the mountainside, and in clear weather, there are good views down across the surrounding plain and neighboring volcanoes, thanks to the 1,200 m above sea level elevation. Go early in the day to get the best chance of good views. On-site there is a volcanic fumarole with hot spring bathing, and horse rides.
A couple of hours hike through nutmeg plantations and natural forest. There is a pool so you can swim there. Some small food stalls have been set up near the waterfall.
There is a swimming pool that offers beautiful views of the mountains since it is 1,200 m above sea level. You can do flying fox, rappelling down the valley, ATV, trekking, and horseback riding.
