Sipisopiso Waterfall, Indonesia

Sipisopiso Waterfall emerges from an underground cave to plunge 120 meters.

Sipisopiso is a waterfall near Tongging, on the northwestern tip of Lake Toba. The name Sipisopiso means "like knives" (ie. "seperti pisau-pisau" in Malay). Sipisopiso is visible from the vantage point at Tongging, where one can also enjoy scenic views of Lake Toba.

Sipisopiso Waterfall emerges from an underground river in the Karo plateau and plunges 120 meters (some sites put it as 110m) off a sheer cliff into the ravine below. I photographed Sipisopiso from the vantage point at Tongging, when I and a small group of AsiaExplorers members were on our way to Lake Toba.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
