Harau Valley walls long stretches, interspersed with some lovely scenic waterfalls with cliff is almost vertically. Variety shapes and colorful moss because of rain from the top of the cliff. Valley area of 300 hectares is a nature reserve with well preserved. At the bottom of valley spread out the rice fields, the exotic panorama will amaze who saw it.
Along the road to this Valley is a lovely countryside. Steep granite walls shelter the fertile valley.

The water of waterfall is so cool and fresh, there are also some little fish living on the nature pool of waterfall. A nice tourism object to visit.
