Overview
Majalengka is a small regency capital in the East Parahyangan highlands, best known as a base for hiking Mount Ciremai—the highest peak in West Java. The surrounding countryside hides several waterfalls, including the 73-metre Curug Muara Jaya, drawing nature-focused travelers off the main Java backpacker trail.
