Yogyakarta never runs out of exciting destinations, and one place that continues to evolve every year is HeHa Sky View. If you are searching for a relaxing getaway, a scenic café with a city panorama, and unique attractions in one location, this famous hilltop destination in Patuk, Gunung Kidul, should be on your list. Entering 2026, HeHa Sky View becomes even more interesting thanks to three brand-new rides: SkySlide, Mirror Maze, and Ghost Cave.
Since its opening on September 18, 2019, HeHa Sky View has transformed into one of the most visited tourism spots in Yogyakarta. The location sits on a hillside, allowing visitors to enjoy breathtaking views of Yogyakarta City from above while sipping coffee, tasting local food, or exploring numerous photo spots.
In 2025, the management officially introduced three new attractions that quickly gained attention from travelers and social media users. These additions offer different experiences: adrenaline, illusion, and horror. Let’s explore them one by one and see why they are worth trying in 2026.

HeHa Sky View Profile and Background
HeHa Sky View was built on former agricultural land. The idea came from two close friends, Herry Zudianto and Handoyo Mawardi, and the name “HeHa” itself is a combination of their names.
Upon arrival, visitors are welcomed by cool mountain air and wide green scenery. The iconic large “HeHa Sky View” signboard near the entrance often becomes the first photo spot for tourists. Many visitors deliberately arrive before sunset to capture golden-hour photos.
The tourism area covers around 3 hectares and keeps expanding every year. Today, it is not just a viewpoint but a complete entertainment complex. Visitors can explore cliff-edge photo spots, relax in garden seating areas, dine in a multi-floor restaurant, and enjoy live music performances in the evening.
Another highlight is the sunset moment. When the sun sets behind the hills and city lights begin to glow, the atmosphere becomes incredibly romantic and calming. This is one of the main reasons why couples and families frequently visit HeHa Sky View.
Main Attractions of HeHa Sky View
HeHa Sky View is popular not only because of the view but also because of its concept: combining café culture, photography spots, and theme park attractions in one place.
Here are its major attractions:
- A four-floor restaurant offering panoramic views in every direction
- A rooftop food stall selling snacks, drinks, and mocktails
- HeHa Aeroplane attraction that gives a flying-above-the-hill sensation
- Garden area live music performances from afternoon to night
- Frequent thematic events such as festivals and fun runs
Because of this combination, the destination attracts all types of visitors: backpackers, families, couples, and even corporate gatherings.
New Attraction #1 – SkySlide HeHa Sky View
The first new ride is the SkySlide, opened on March 25, 2025, and quickly became the most thrilling attraction at HeHa Sky View.
At first glance, it looks like a giant playground slide, but in reality it is much bigger and built on the eastern edge of the hill. The track twists and curves along the hillside, giving riders an exhilarating descent while overlooking the valley and distant city lights.
When sliding, visitors can see the wide landscape of hills and the city panorama simultaneously. The experience is not only fun but also visually stunning, especially during sunset and early evening.
The sensation increases as speed builds. The surface is smooth yet safe because it is coated with special materials and equipped with proper hand grips. Safety staff are also stationed nearby to ensure every visitor rides securely.
SkySlide ticket price: Rp 20,000 per person.
This attraction is perfect for visitors who love adrenaline but still want a family-friendly ride.
New Attraction #2 – Mirror Maze
The second addition is the Mirror Maze, the first glass labyrinth attraction in HeHa Sky View, opened after the 2025 Eid holiday season.
Inside, visitors walk through corridors made entirely of reflective mirrors. At first it seems simple, but after a few steps you will start feeling confused about directions. Reflections create illusions that make paths appear longer, shorter, or even invisible.
Colorful lighting enhances the illusion effect. Sometimes you think you found the exit, but it turns out to be only a reflection. That confusion is actually the fun part.
The Mirror Maze has quickly become a favorite for young visitors and content creators because it produces unique photos and videos. The reflective walls multiply light effects and create surreal visuals perfect for social media.
Ticket price: Not officially announced yet (as of its initial opening period).
Unlike SkySlide’s adrenaline, this ride focuses on curiosity, laughter, and group interaction.
New Attraction #3 – Ghost Cave (HeHaunted Cave)
If you prefer horror experiences, the Ghost Cave, also called HeHaunted Cave, is the newest must-try attraction. It opened in April 2025 and was officially highlighted during the Halloween event.
This artificial cave is designed to simulate a haunted environment. Visitors walk through narrow passages filled with eerie sounds, artificial fog, dim lighting, and moving ghost figures.
Some sections are intentionally dark, increasing tension and anticipation. The unexpected movements and sound effects often cause screams and laughter at the same time.
Even though it is scary, safety remains the priority. Staff members monitor the area and safe routes are provided. Therefore, it is suitable for teenagers and adults who want to test their courage.
Ghost Cave ticket price: Rp 20,000 per person.
During October, the attraction sometimes operates until midnight for Halloween season.
