Murusobe: Cool Rumbling in Tanawawo's Arms
Hidden beneath the green hills and lush forests of Poma Village, Tanawawo District, Sikka Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, lies a largely untouched natural gem: Murusobe Waterfall. This destination offers a stunning charm that captivates anyone who visits.
This towering waterfall cascades clear water that crashes against hard rocks and forms a natural pool at its base. Surrounded by pristine tropical vegetation, the atmosphere is cool, quiet, and calming.
The roar of the rushing water combines with the chirping of birds and the whispering breeze of the trees, creating a natural harmony that delights the senses. Poma Village Head, Donatus Rada, explained that access to this location begins by traveling overland from the center of Sikka Regency to Poma Village.

Upon arrival at the village, visitors must still walk along a challenging path, yet it's filled with beautiful views. "Although the terrain to the waterfall is quite challenging, the beauty of Murusobe seems to repay every step of the way," said Donatus.
The community hopes that Murusobe Waterfall can develop into a new tourist attraction that will boost the village's economy. However, they continue to emphasize the importance of environmental sustainability as an integral part of the destination's beauty.
