Tucked within the Tahura Raden Soerjo forest park on the slopes of Mount Welirang above Batu, Cangar offers open-air pools of milky-green, sulfur-rich thermal water surrounded by dense montane jungle. Wild lutung monkeys are regularly seen in the tropical canopy overhanging the steaming baths, and the misty pine-forest mountain road in is part of the appeal. The contrast of hot mineral water and cool highland air is the main draw.
