With a decisive stage win in stage 2, defending Tour Down Under champion Amanda Spratt (Mitchelton-Scott) is on track to win the overall again. She won on Friday in Angaston, Australia, 39 seconds ahead of teammate Lucy Kennedy. Kristabel Doebel-Hickok (Rally-UHC) was third.
“What can I say, my teammates were so, so amazing and whenever they ride so hard for you like that, you want to finish it off,” said Spratt. “We had a plan and when you can ride it to perfection as a team, it just feels amazing.”
Mitchelton-Scott drove the pace ahead of the 116.7km stage’s uphill finish on Mengler Hill.
They caught the race’s two breakaway riders, Rebecca Wiasak (UniSA Australia) and Deborah Paine (New Zealand), with about seven kilometers to go, setting Spratt up perfectly.
“We had Grace [Brown] do a fantastic job in the three or four kilometers before the climb and then Lucy [Kennedy] hit it,” Spratt added. “I had instructions to attack and bring no one with me so that’s what I did.”
Kennedy said she was happy to work for her fellow Australian because she could tell Spratt had better legs for the finish.
With two stages remaining, Mitchelon-Scott is in control with Spratt first overall and Kennedy second, 43 seconds behind. Doebel-Hickok is third, 51 seconds back.
Saturday’s stage will be a 104.5km race from Nairne to Stirling with a rolling profile. It will likely be the only opportunity for a shakeup in the GC standings as the final stage in Adelaide is entirely flat and short.
Semawur Waterfall or Semawur Waterfall - The best waterfall in Central Java consists of 8 levels with clear water and never dry in the dry season. Semawur Waterfall - The best waterfall in Central Java At the first level the water has a height of about 25 meters, and the second level has a height of 50 meters. From the bottom of the valley, only three levels of waterfall can be seen with the eye even though the Semawur Waterfall - the best Waterfall in Central Java - has up to 8 levels.
This waterfall is at an altitude of 1300 m above sea level and flows in Kali Bajang. To arrive at the last village (Jiwan), there are several alternative transportation tools, including we can ride public transportation in Sukorejo, or also for those of you who pass through the regency area, you will go through Kalirejo village where the two-wheeled or four-wheeled route stop, after that we ask to go down at the junction of the plantungan, as well as passing through the mbawang, here the motorcycle taxi drivers ready to take us to our destination. However, if we are in a large group, it would be better if we chartered a pick-up car, both in the weleri market and in the Sukorejo market (depending on where we are) and of course after the price of the bargaining price. For the last alternative we can also use private vehicles, and it turns out that this method is the most effective and efficient, besides being more relaxed on the journey, we are also not worried about the time of return. Moreover, the road conditions even though it has been paved smoothly, and winding.
Photos of the trip to Jurug Semawur
this time we use private vehicles to get to the last village (kalirejo), along the way to the village of Jiwan, the author is so enjoying the beauty of the natural panorama, after being treated with pine forests and clove plantations, then we will be greeted with a vast expanse of rice fields and terracing, especially coupled with hills that menghjiau, adding to the satisfaction of the soul for the author. And that is no less enjoyable, we will also be seduced by the chirping of the birds and the splash of the river, moreover we will be lulled by the gentle blowing of the valley wind (because this area is still the foot of the mountain boat). this condition can drive away our loneliness and boredom. After arriving in this village, we can leave our vehicle to the local residents, (because there is not yet an area for parking here), even this time the author entrusts one of the residents of the village of Jwan (Mr. Solikhin) who previously met him when the author was still sitting in the school around 1995, with Mr. Drs. Soewardjo as an extra-curricular coach (lover of nature) at that time. Next we go to the river lampir, as the beginning of our adventure. To get to the "Curug Semawur" waterfall, there are 2 alternative paths that we can go through, first if we want to get wet, we can go straight along this lampir river flow to the top with approximately one hour, but if we want a little more relaxed, we can also pass the path that is in the hills, but don't be surprised if we meet with wild plants and bushes, which are taller than our own bodies, and the path is the road to Semawur waterfall that we have to go through.
Video recording of a trip to Semawur Waterfall
The trip was equally interesting, besides having a vast population of fields, and planted with various types of plants, even along this path a lot of coffee planted, which is a mainstay of agriculture from local residents, in addition to cloves and melinjo fruit of course. No less fun here there are still many wild birds that always accompany every step of our foot. Fatigue and fatigue will soon disappear, moreover we are already under the first waterfall, with the air so cool & fresh. Even though we have been able to take a bath with whatever we like, but we are not satisfied if we don't go to the second waterfall which has an altitude of approximately 30 meters, to go to this second waterfall, we must be extra careful, because besides the road up and down the road is pretty slippery because it's rocky.
After being satisfied under the fresh splash of the waterfall of Semawur, the author took a break under the shade of the trees, while chatting casually and eating, but soon the writer rested, there were groups of school students, as well as from nature lover clubs who came here, most of them go directly to the stone puddle area and shortly afterwards, they were abuzz bathing under the fresh splash of the waterfall. But it is very unfortunate that the beautiful waterfall of Semawur is not very well received and is less attractive to visitors in general, even if there are, maybe for those who are really ready for the terrain that will be passed, because of the condition of the road to Curug Semawur still natural path so far from the last village. The author himself calls the Semawur waterfall as "The Hidden Heaven for True Adventurers", because it is located the furthest from the crowds and the westernmost of the Kendal district. In fact, if the Semawur waterfall is managed and developed well and is also packaged as an object of tourism, it is possible to become a mainstay of valuable tourism assets for the Kendal government. parking areas, public toilets, and opening food stalls.

Location and Route Towards Mount Prau itself is on the border of the Four districts, namely, Kab. Banjarnegara, Kab. Wonosobo, Kab. Batang and Kab. Kendal. Because the shape of the mountain prau is elongated like a boat and its shape is very similar to a boat that is being turned upside down.
Because the most well-known and shortest hiking trail is from the direction of natural tourism, many climbers who call Gunung Prau belong to the Dieng tourist area, even though Mount Prau belongs to the government of three regencies namely Wonosobo, Kendal and Batang.
To climb Mount Prau there are 2 main paths that have often been passed by climbers, in addition to the available monitoring posts, climbers have also been known. The pertema lane is past the northern lane. However, there is one very extreme path through the northern route in Kalirejo village, onion district, stem district.

The northern path of the climb can start from several points from Kendal Regency, namely the climbing path of Kenjuran Village located in Sukoreja District. The hiking trail from the path of success itself consumes approximately 6 hours of travel. The route that is passed is a bit steep, while the northern route which is very extreme is through the village Kalirejo, Mbawang, Matang, as I mentioned above.

Usually in each post there are officers who are on guard and ready to provide assistance if the climbers experience difficulties.
