Cacaban Reservoir, Jatinegara, Tegal

 A reservoir is an artificial area that functions as a reservoir for water which is then channeled back to the surrounding area, especially agricultural land and rice fields.
  
  ' Located still in the foothills of Mount Slamet, this area is very suitable to be used as a reservoir or other name for reservoir whose main function is as a water supply when the dry season hits.

 This time we will review a little about the Cacaban reservoir, which is precisely located in Penujah village, Kedung Banteng sub-district, Tegal regency, Central Java.

 ' Built during the era of the first president, Ir. Soekarno, the location contains an agricultural area and a sugar cane processing factory, a legacy of the Dutch. Since Indonesia's independence, the location has been re-used and developed.

The Cacaban reservoir itself was created to irrigate the surrounding area, especially the rice fields,,,

 The Cacaban Reservoir was first built during the era of President Soekarno, in 1952, with the aim of its construction being to store irrigation for rice fields and agriculture around Penujah village.. 


 However, as time went by, in 2020 the Cacaban reservoir was closed for revitalization until 2022 when it was reopened with its icon and attractions.




 The reservoir now offers exotic and attractive views, such as being surrounded by hills, suitable for fishing, boating or just gathering with family and relatives.

From the latest information, the Cacaban reservoir is open from 06.00-21.00 every day.
Ticket prices are -9k for adults -8k for children.
Weekend tickets - 10k for adults - 8k for children









* FACILITY : 

- Cacaban reservoir provides a children's play area
- Boat rental
Various stands selling various snacks and restaurants are also available at the Cacaban reservoir.


* Reference :


- Offering fishing spots with various fish, such as tawes, goldfish, tilapia and even quite large tilapia.

- You can also get your adrenaline pumping by renting a boat that is provided there.


- For those who bring their families, there is also a playground for their children, then there are also horse and electric bicycle rentals to go around enjoying the views on Teletubbies Hill.

- If you are feeling hungry and perhaps don't have time to bring provisions, there are also various foods available there such as fried foods, rice cakes, as well as fresh catches from the Cacaban reservoir, such as blanket shrimp, grilled carp and others.



 Maybe that's all the information about the Cacaban reservoir for now, but the initial purpose of its construction was to irrigate agricultural land and rice fields, especially since there was a Pangkah sugar factory which is now starting to decrease its production... so it was converted into a tourist attraction which could possibly support the economy of the community, especially the village of Penujah itself.

  Thank you very much for your participation, support and input from you, we really hope to be able to provide more information.
