Exploring the Dynamic Duo of Caves – Gua Sanghyang Tikoro & Sanghyang Poek, Cipatat

Sanghyang Tikoro and Sanghyang Poek are essentially the parts of the charming area of Cipatat or Saguling Hydro Power Plant, along with Sanghyang Heuleut. Both caves are placed in the same area which is overflowing with clear water and breathtaking surroundings. Sanghyang Tikoro which means the holy throat is a deep cave with an underground river stream. It is believed to have formed by the cooling down of lava during a major eruption, while the water slowly eroded and shaped the stalactites cave. Similarly, Sanghyang Poek is also a cave just 15 minutes away from Tikoro, and a part of the area’s famed tourist spot. The landscape is slightly different as it’s diagonally shaped or slanted. Traveling inside the cool cave, you will experience dripping water and pitch black darkness before emerging to the other side. Our verdict? Definitely worth exploring!
