The description published in 2021 mentions 133 rare plant species endemic to East Java; around 3,000 trees are also maintained there as a scientific collection. These figures give Jombang’s nature theme a concrete botanical dimension.

Cultural destinations across the broader destination of Jombang also offer varied points of interest. Kawasan Wisata Religi Makam Gus Dur in Desa Cukir, Kecamatan Diwek, is one of the best-known pilgrimage destinations in Jombang. Museum Islam Indonesia KH. Hasyim Asy'ari at Tebuireng Gang 4, Kwaron, Cukir, Kecamatan Diwek, houses collections and information about the development of Islam in Indonesia.

For landscape-related interests, the broader destination of Jombang offers other varied attractions. The route to Air Terjun Tretes in Dusun Pengajaran, Desa Galengdowo, Kecamatan Wonosalam, passes through forest and mountain scenery; the destination is described as a place for light adventure.
