Cage Cemoro path a bit further away than Sewu Cemoro path, but this pathway is somewhat sloping so that it can be passed pejiarah using horses rented from Tawangmangu. Cage Cemoro pathway can also be used to perform Bike adventure. Outposts along this path in the form of roofed building that is damaged, except in the Post 1 and Post 2 in the state is still intact and on certain days used to sell food. The line was dominated by red soil, so that when it rains or after it rains very slippery path.

Before reaching the first post there is a path leading to the Falls. In this pathway is often already smelled the smell of sulfur.
