Air Terjun Madakaripura
Air terjun Madakaripura, terletak di kecamatan Lumbang, Probolingo dan merupakan air terjun yang sangat indah untuk dikunjungi.
Air terjun ini masuk ke dalam kawasan Taman Nasional Bromo Tengger Semeru, dan memiliki bentuk seperti ceruk yang dikelilingi bukit yang meneteskan air pada seluruh tebingnya seperti layaknya hujan yang turun.
Untuk mencapai lokasi air terjun ini tidak begitu sulit, dan akan melewati pemandangan yang sangat indah dan rute perjalanan yang tidak terlampau curam. Melintasi dinding-dinding bukit di jalan menuju air terjun akan memberikan sensasi yang luar biasa mengharukan,. Bila beruntung, adanya lutung yang saling berlompatan dan bersenda gurau satu dengan yang lainnya akan memberikan nuansa hutan belantara yang jarang bisa ditemukan di tempat lain.
Di balik Air Terjun Madakaripura terdapat pula sebuah gua, dan untuk masuk ke sana harus terlebih dahulu melewati kolam air yang ada tepat di bawah Air Terjun Madakaripura. Dengan arus air setinggi 7 Meter dan arus air yang sangat deras membuat goa ini sulit untuk dijangkau.
Dibalik keindahannya yang agung, Madakaripura dipercaya sebagai tempat bertapa mahapatih Gajahmada pada era kerajaan Majapahit.
