Sehari Keliling Taman Nasional Baluran Jawa Timur

November 04, 2018 46
Sehari Keliling Taman Nasional Baluran Jawa Timur
Taman Nasional Baluran - Jawa Timur

Cuaca pagi itu tampak mendung dan langit tampak gelap, namun tidak menyurutkan niat kami untuk mengexplore salah satu taman nasional terindah di Indonesia ini. Adalah Taman Nasional Baluran, dimana Taman Nasional ini mempunyai daya tarik sangat unik karena memiliki panorama alam bernuansa Afrika. Aku bersama teman-temanku sebelumnya telah menyewa sebuah mobil disini (banyuwangi.red) beserta supirnya, karena kami baru pertama kali kesini. Kami mambayar sebesar 400 rb rupiah untuk waktu sewa selama 24 jam. Siapa sangka ya ternyata Taman Nasional Baluran ini terhampar dikawasan seluas 25.000 hektar dan terletak diwilayah Kecamatan Banyuputih, Kabupaten Situbondo dan Kecamatan Wongsorejo, Kabupaten Banyuwangi, Provinsi Jawa Timur.


Sebelum memasuki kawasan atau pintu gerbang Taman Nasional ini kami menyempatkan diri mampir disebuah warung soto yang terletak tidak jauh dari Taman Nasional ini. Soto hangat dan segelas teh manis panas membuat suasana pagi itu segar dan membuat kami bersemangat dan siap mengexplore taman nasional ini. Harga tiket masuk hanya 15rb per orang. Harga yang masih cukup terjangkau tentunya. Setelah memasuki kawasan taman nasional ini kami harus menempuh perjalanan kurang lebih 12 KM untuk mencapai tujuan pertama kami yaitu Savana Bekol. Cukup jauh juga ya. Dan jalanan yang kami lalui juga kurang bersahabat karena masih berupa jalan tanah sehingga memakan waktu sekitar satu jam lebih. Namun kami menikmati pemandangan sepanjang perjalanan karena pepohonan hijau dan asri terbentang disepanjang kiri-kanan jalan.


Taman Nasional Baluran - Abaikan Gaya Kami

Taman Nasional Baluran mempunyai beberapa jenis hutan, satwa, dan tumbuhan. Ekosistem hutannya terdiri dari tipe vegetasi savana, hutan mangrove, hutan musim, hutan pantai, hutan pegunungan bawah, hutan rawa dan hutan yang selalu hijau sepanjang tahun. Sekitar 40% diantaranya merupakan vegetasi savana. Tumbuhan di Taman Nasional Baluran ini ada 444 jenis yang masuk dalam 100 famili. Keseluruhan tumbuhan yang ada termasuk kedalam 24 jenis tumbuhan langka, 265 tumbuhan herbal, dan 37 jenis mangrove yang tumbuh secara alami. Selain tumbuhan, terdapat 26 jenis mamalia juga disini, diantaranya banteng, kerbau, kijang, rusa, macan tutul, dan kucing bakau. Selain itu taman nasional ini juga merupakan rumah dari sebanyak 155 jenis burung, wow.

Tengkorak Kepala Banteng, Rusa dan Kerbau
Setibanya di Savana Bekol kami berhenti dan tentu saja berkeliling disekitar ingin menikmati suasana yang terasa benar-benar luas dan lapang seperti lagi di Afrika, namun sayang savananya tampak sepi tanpa terlihat ada tanda-tanda hewan berkeliaran pagi itu. Sebelum berkeliling jalan kaki di savana ini sang supir sekaligus pemandu kami tentunya, telah mengingatkan kami untuk berhati-hati dan selalu waspada karena savana ini juga merupakan tempat tinggal para ular, serem juga ya hehe. So, perhatikan langkah kalian guys, jangan sampai liburan bikin kita jadi kenapa-kenapa karena kurang hati-hati. Di Savana Bekol ini juga kita akan menemukan sebuah pondok kecil tempat dipajangnya beberapa tengkorak Kepala Banteng, Rusa dan Kerbau yang telah kering. Yang mana spot ini juga merupakan salah satu ikon dari Taman Nasional ini.Setelah cukup puas berkeliling kamipun melanjutkan perjalanan kembali.



Pantai Bama - Taman Nasional Baluran

Kami melanjutkan perjalanan kembali untuk mengitari taman luas yang menjadi tempat hidup ratusan binatang, dalam perjalanan kami melihat ayam hutan, rusa, kerbau, gajah, burung hutan, dan banteng. Setelah melewati Savana Bekol, kami melanjutkan perjalana menuju Pantai Bama yang tidak jauh dari savana ini, hanya berjarak lebih kurang 3 KM saja. Wah siapa sangka ya di dalam kawasan taman nasional ini juga terdapat pantai hehe. Karena cuaca mendung hingga siang hari akhirnya kami hanya menikmati pantai saja tanpa mencoba untuk menyeburkan diri kedalamnya. Garis pantai bama itu cukup panjang dan memiliki pasir putih yang cukup lembut. Tujuan kami selanjutnya yaitu Menara Pantau. Dari atas menara ini kita bisa melihat pemandangan Taman Nasional Baluran 360 derajat, Savana Bekol terlihat begitu luas dan kita juga bisa melihat Gunung Baluran dari atas menara ini. Untuk menaiki menara pantau, kita harus berjalan menaiki bukit kecil yang sudah tertata seperti tangga.

Aplikasi pegipegi.com
Setelah puas menikmati permandangan dan hari mulai panas, kamipun memutuskan untuk menyudahi kunjungan di Taman Nasional Baluran ini. Yang pasti sangat puas dan kalian juga harus cobain mendatangi taman nasional ini. Karena akses menuju Taman Nasional Baluran ini tidaklah sulit, yang paling gampang ya harus ke Banyuwangi dulu. Salah satu cara menuju banyuwangi yang hemat dan santai yaitu dengan menaiki kereta, dan omong-omong soal naik kerata aku paling suka pesennya dari aplikasi atau websitenya si pegipegi.com karena sering ada promo, kadang ada potongan harga 10 hingga 20 % kan lumayan hemat tuh hehe dari pada beli langsung di konter kan. Untuk pembayarannya juga mudah nih pegipegi, bisa dengan Kartu Kredit, Transfer Bank, Internet Banking, Mobile Banking, Pembayaran di Swalayan dan bahkan ada pilihan cicilan loh, waduh asiknya. Tapi aku paling suka milih yang metode Mobile Banking karena sangat praktis cukup bermodalkan Handphone dan jaringan internet saja.




Okelah cukup sekian cerita tentang Taman Nasional Baluran ya, eits tapi bukan berarti selesai menjelajahi banyuwangi ya, tunggu cerita selanjutnya guys.

5 Baju Kaos Kesayangan Saat Travelling !!! Kamu Gimana ?

August 20, 2018 22
5 Baju Kaos Kesayangan Saat Travelling !!! Kamu Gimana ?
Istilah Inggrisnya T-shirt ya kan, nah kalau bahasa Indonesia atau bahasa sehari-hari ya kaos. Pastilah ya semua juga sudah pada tahu fungsi baju kaos itu buat apa, ya bagian dari pakaian. Nah aku yakin kalian pasti punya juga baju kaos-kaos andalan yang walaupun sudah agak "butek" masih aja dipakai gitu haha, pastinya kan karena nyaman dan selalu setia menemani. Nah jadi kali ini aku kepengen aja berbagi cerita tentang beberapa kaos andalan atau kaos yang sering aku pakai saat bepergian atau Travelling, sudah susah mau pisah sama mereka-mereka ini karna dan terlanjur cinta dan nyaman dipakainya. Berikut nih dia kaos-kaosnya : 

Kaos Hitam Dengan Garis Warna Warni 

Warnanya dominan hitam tapi dengan corak garis tebal warna-warni yang membuat aku jatuh cinta dengan kaos ini, bahannya dari katun lembut ya walaupun bahan dasar hitam itu kan membuat panas tidak menyerap alias terasa lebih panas ketika matahari menyengat tapi karena sudah terlanjur cinta dengan warnanya dan lagi bahannya juga enak jadi serasa nyaman aja pakainya. Nah ini terakhir aku pakai saat bepergian ke Halong Bay di Vietnam. Padahal ini badan terasa basah dan penuh keringat loh tapi karena warnanya hitam jadi tidak kelihatan. Soalnya lokasi ini disebut "Puncak Ti Top Island" sebuah pulau yang terletak disalah satu dari ribuan gugusan pulau di Teluk Halong, Vietnam. Jadi untuk mendapatkan spot photo ini aku cukup berjuang buat mendaki ratusan anak tangga yang cukup menguras keringat dengan ditemani kaos hitam ini.



Kaos Hitam Warna Warni - Ti Top Island Halong Bay Vietnam

Kaos Biru Putih Abu Abu

Pantai Cenang - Langkawi
Selanjutnya pilihan satu ini berbanding terbalik dengan sebelumnya ya, ini lebih cerah karena ada banyak warna putih, kaos ini lembut dan pastinya nyaman dipakai. Ini salah satu penampakan aku menggunakan kaos ini ketika lagi travelling di Langkawi, Malaysia, tepatnya di Pantai Cenang. Ini mainnya ke pantai tapi cuma buat jalan-jalan doang tidak berenang, soalnya pakaian lengkap gini mana pakai sepatu lagi kan.


Kaos Superman

Khairah Beach
Huruf "S" terpampang jelas, kaos ini benar-benar meniru replika bajunya sang Superhero DC, warnanya pastinya biru dong, cuma ini biru laut sedikit berbeda ya sama biru aslinya Superman. Kaos ini sebenarnya agak panas dan gerah dipakai karna bahannya kali ya, tapi aku dah terlanjur suka sama warnanya yang tidak terlalu ngejreng tapi meriah, terus ukurannya juga sudah slim fit alias pas di badanku yang lumayan gemuk dikit ini haha. Ini saat aku memakainya ketika travelling ke sebuah pulau yang begitu indah yang terletak disalah satu gugusan pulau di Batam.


Kaos Corak Corak Bergembira 
Tidak tahu pasti ni coraknya apa ya, tapi rame gitu ya kelihatannya, suka aja sama corak dari kaos ini. Bahannya agak panas sih dan agak berserat, tapi aku suka dengan kaos ini karena kalau di photo keliatan bagus dan menarik. Ini photo ketika aku menggunakan koas ini saat travelling disalah satu resort mewah yang terletak di Lagoi, Bintan.


Bintan Island - 

Kaos "livejournalofasad.com" Sang Petualang Hidup

Kalau kaos satu ini harus dibanggakan dong wkwkkw. Koas merk sendiri, ups. Kaos ini aku buat disalah satu tempat sablon kaos milik teman sendiri sih, nah kualitas kaos ini bagus, bahannya tebal dan nyaman dipakai. Dan kaos ini paling sering aku gunakan ketika menghadiri acara-acara atau sekedar berkumpul bersama teman-teman di Batam.

Pulau Subang Mas - Batam


Nah demikianlah pemirsah beberapa kaos andalanku ketika bepergian atau boleh dibilang kaos kesayangan hingga saat ini hehe, lalu bagaimana dengan kalian nih?
