Cukang Taneuh, which means Soil bridgeinSundanese, is a canyon located in Pangandaran, West Java, Indonesia. It is also known as Green Canyon.[1][2] The name Green Canyon may have been derived from the color of the surrounding water and hills.
The canyon was formed over millions of years by the Cijulang river, which is flanked by two rocky cliffs with trees above it.
To reach the canyon, visitors have to rent a rowboat from the Ciseureuh dock. The boats operate daily from 7.30 am to 4.00 pm. The journey of 3 km takes approximately 30 – 45 minutes to get to the entrance of Cukang Taneuh. To enter the canyon, visitors must swim the rest of the way.
The entrance to the canyon is shaped like a cave, which opens up revealing a river between two cliffs. There is a small waterfall at this entrance called Palatar. Many more waterfalls can be seen along these cliffs.
The canyon also supports recreational activities such as body rafting, climbing, swimming, boating, and fishing. Besides Cukang Taneuh, there are also other tourist destinations near this location, such as Batukaras and Pangandaran beach.
