Mangrove Bedul, Woles di Gondang Gandung

Share


Wisata mangrove sama dengan ngeliatin bakau dan bosan? Well, not for me, saya selalu senang menyusuri hutan mangrove dan menikmati saat saat bersantai, slow down dan "woles" di atas kapal.

Mangrove forest tour is boring since you can only see trees? Well, not for me, I'm always having great time on the boat through the river and seeing mangrove forest, a relax moment, slow down, or what we say "woles"


Visit this place with Terselubung
Di Taman Nasional Alas Purwo, kita dapat menyusuri area hutan mangrove terbesar di Pulau Jawa. Ada beberapa area hutan mangrove di taman nasional, mulai dari area Teluk Yangpang, Segara Anak, Edi Sunglon Ombo, Serpat, Blok Slenggrong hingga Pondok Kobong. Namun area terbesar dan yang menjadi lokasi wisata mangrove adalah area sekitar Sungai Segara Anak, dengan akses masuk melalui Bedul di Tegaldimo.

In Alas Purwo National Park, we can see the largest mangrove forest area in Java. There are several areas of mangrove forest in this national parks, from the Yangpang gulf area, Segara Anak, Edi Sunglon Ombo, Serpat ,Blok Slenggrong to Pondok Kobong. But the biggest area which became the place for mangrove tour is the area around the Segara Anak river, with entrance through Bedul in Tegaldimo. 
Local called this wooden boat "gondang gandung"

Dari Bedul hanya perlu berjalan kaki lima menit menuju dermaga untuk naik perahu kayu khas disini yaitu gondang gandung. Selain itu, jika ingin mencoba menanam mangrove bisa dilakukan di area dekat dermaga sebelum mulai menyusuri Sungai Segara Anak.

From Bedul you'll only need a five-minutes walk to the dock for boat ride using "gondang gandung" which is the local name for the wooden boat. Also, you can try plant some mangroves in area near the dock before you start the tour through the river.

You can plant little mangal here
Fun to dip into the mud!
Kami dipinjamkan sepatu boot yang persis seperti booties untuk diving karena akan masuk ke tanah yang basah khas area mangrove, meski saat itu sedang surut. Area Bedul terus menerus ditanami mangrove baru untuk mengembalikan habitat ke kondisi sebelumnya. Hutan mangrove punya banyak fungsi di lingkungan, mulai dari menahan abrasi pantai, menahan peresapan air laut, menahan angin, menurunkan kadar CO2 dan bahan tercemar, hingga menjadi tempat hidup dan berkembang biak berbagai biota laut.

We'll be needing to use boots which are exactly like booties for diving. The reason is because we'll get into the mud area, even though you will do this during low tide. Bedul area is constantly planted with mangroves to keep the environment healthy. Mangrove forest have several functions in the environment, it resist the abrasion, resist salinization, as a protector against the wind, lowering CO2 levels and contaminated materials, also as a place for marine life to breed and live.

Satu hal lagi, hutan mangrove juga menyenangkan sebagai lokasi wisata, karena anda dapat merasakan menyusuri perairan dengan tutupan tanaman di kiri dan kanan sungai. Area mangrove di sekitar Segara Anak ini luasnya 866 hektar dengan ciri khas perahu gondang gandung yang dapat menampung belasan orang.
 
One more thing, mangrove forests are also great as tourist destination, you can feel the the relaxing feeling of crossing the river with green plants all over the river side.
Mangrove areas around Segara Anak extent 866 acres with the typical gondang gandung boat that can accommodate dozen of people.


Dari sini kita dapat memilih, mau lanjut ke area Plengkung dengan berjalan kaki dan perjalanan naik jeep, atau kembali ke Bedul. Yang manapun yang anda pilih, menyusuri sungai dengan perahu kayu sambil melihat kehijauan selama sekitar satu jam itu sangat menenangkan.

From here we can choose, to continue your trip to Plengkung by walking and also jeep ride, or going back to Bedul. Whatever you choose, strolling down the river on a wooden boat while watching greens everywhere for about an hour is very relaxing.
