Rengganis Crater as a tourism attraction was created as a result of the ancient Sunda volcanic eruption that occurred several million years ago. The name Rengganis has only recently been heard, because the local residents are more familiar with the crater by the name Cibuni. This name change occurred, due to a change in the management of the area in the Ciwidey area which is currently managed by Rancabuli Agritourism. Rengganis Crater has a very beautiful atmosphere, with views of towering trees, so this area becomes beautiful. Here, you will not smell the pungent smell of sulfur. The crater pool can be used for bathing and as a health therapy because the crater here is traversed by the river water which is quite clean, so it is safe to use for bathing.

If you soak in the pool of Rengganis Crater, you will feel extraordinarily relaxed because of the hot springs. The serenity and calmness of the heart will be felt to seep to the bones. The sulfur content is able to cure skin diseases. This water current is also used by Cimanggu hot springs. Another reason why you are recommended to visit this place is because of the spa facilities. Here, there are two small geysers or hot springs that can gush upwards. The result of this burst creates a large amount of steam, so you can use this place for a natural sauna bath.
