WANA WISATA is a place for week end in Puncak Bogor, nobody know that this is a good place for camping,hiking, and a challenge for whom enjoy jungle tracking. There are Seven Water fall which known by local peoples(Sunda) as CURUG at the slope of a Hill. Wana Wisata is a Jungle in Cilember village, maintained by Ministry of Forestry, here we can also observe a butterfly laboratory, a camping ground, some local Cafetarias for breakfast, lunch or diner and watching Bogor down town from the top of the Hill. The pictures were an Entrance gate and the hill side where we can hiking until the top seen from below as a row of Pine trees

Railway track.

Get away from the traffic. Walk alongside one of Bogors canals or rivers or railway tracks. You will enter a world of bougainvillea, flame trees, red roofed shacks, washing lines, goats, fruit bats, boys flying kites, tiny mosques, patches of jungle, and, views of a distant blue volcano.
