This location is in Dusun Wangkal Ronyok, Desa Bangunkarya, Kecamatan Langkaplancar, Kabupaten Pangandaran.

Bukit Baruno offers a cool climate with typical hilly conditions and breathtaking natural scenery.

Bukit Baruno is easily accessible to tourists from various directions, as it is located on the alternative route from Banjarsari to Pangandaran.

From Banjarsari, visitors only need to travel for 40 minutes a distance of 23 kilometers. The road access is also already good, which can be through the Cigayam Road - Bungur Raya Langkaplancar route.

If departing from the center of government of Pangandaran Regency, it takes about 20 kilometers.

From the Pangandaran Beach tourism area, this location can be reached in approximately 50 minutes with a distance of around 30 kilometers.

This tourist destination not only offers natural scenery but also presents a typical Sundanese restaurant that serves specialty dishes such as fresh grilled fish.

The owner of Bukit Baruno, Adang Sudirman, admitted that he opened Bukit Baruno since January 2018 with the mission to contribute to the development of Pangandaran's natural tourism potential.

"We are participating in developing nature tourism in Pangandaran. Before going to the beach, please stop by at Bukit Baruno to rest and enjoy the grilled fish cuisine. Don't worry, the road conditions are already good," said Adang to Tribun Jabar at Bukit Baruno on Wednesday (18/6/2025) morning.

For those who love fishing, Bukit Baruno also provides a fishing pond. Of course, visitors can enjoy the fish they catch by having it grilled on site.

One of the attractions of Bukit Baruno is the design of the eating house which resembles a treehouse and is located on the edge of a cliff.

This design allows visitors to enjoy the natural panorama from a height, including the captivating sunset moments in the evening.

"Many visitors also come just to rest while having coffee and taking selfies with their family or friends," he said.

Bukit Baruno is not only suitable for dining or resting, but has been developed into a family tourism destination.
