Air terjun Nyarai

Air terjun Nyarai is a waterfall near Padang Pariaman that drops 8 meters into a natural green pool surrounded by large boulders. The water flows through dense forest area and creates a cool, moist environment with thick vegetation all around.

The waterfall first became known to tourists in the 2010s through local explorers and adventure groups. Its remote location kept it away from heavy visitor traffic for many years.

Local guides from surrounding villages lead visitors through traditional agricultural areas where farmers maintain centuries-old rice cultivation methods along the trail.

Reaching this place requires a multi-hour hike through forest paths and across river crossings, with local guides needed for navigation. The area is most accessible in the dry season when water levels and trail conditions are more stable.

The natural pool is home to various fish species, which local communities have traditionally harvested using time-honored methods. This relationship between people and the water has been part of the landscape for generations.
