Facilities include a 200-seat auditorium, a restaurant, a lobby, a mosque, a swimming pool, a playground and a parking lot. Confirm the current availability of facilities before your trip.

For Curug Cileat, the height difference refers to the approximate height of the waterfall: it is about 100 meters high. Two paths lead there, one through densely vegetated forest and the other through rice fields. The routes therefore differ in the landscape immediately around them.
