The area is geologically significant due to the convergence of two major rivers, which create the high-volume flow of Curug Omas.
The Maribaya park area was historically known as a local bathhouse destination long before its modern commercial redevelopment.
The site sits on the periphery of the Tangkuban Perahu volcanic complex, which serves as the heat source for the geothermal springs.
The wooden skywalks are engineered to allow visitors to view the waterfall from above the tree canopy level.
Curug Maribaya is a natural attraction in Lembang, West Bandung, characterized by multiple cascading waterfalls and geothermal hot springs. The site features a developed park area with boardwalks that allow visitors to traverse the forested canyon. Its primary waterfall, Curug Omas, is fed by the Cikawari and Cigulun rivers. The park sits at an elevation that provides a cooler mountain climate compared to central Bandung. Visitors can access various bathing pools fed by natural mineral water. The site includes pedestrian bridges and designated walking trails designed to integrate with the surrounding pine forest.

Wear footwear with high-traction soles as the wooden walkways and stone paths become extremely slippery when wet.
Bring a change of clothes if you intend to use the geothermal soaking pools.
Visit on a weekday to avoid significant crowds that occur during local public holidays and weekends.
Avoid visiting during heavy rain, as the river paths can be prone to flash flooding and become dangerous.
Modest clothing is expected when using public soaking pools; avoid excessive noise to maintain the environment.
