The Experience

Before You Go

Weight & safety checks

Operators enforce a 40–100 kg weight range and will check harnesses—follow staff instructions during harnessing and at platforms.

Secure your phone and camera

Bring a wrist strap or leave loose electronics with your driver—ziplines and swings require hands-free operation.

Footwear for mixed terrain

Wear grippy, water-resistant shoes for slippery approaches to the waterfall and for uneven jungle steps.

Hydrate before you start

Carry a small bottle; heat and humidity make six hours feel longer than it is—drink before the hike and between activities.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Stop briefly at a small roadside coffee plantation for a quick luwak or traditional roast tasting.
  • Take the short detour to a quiet roadside viewpoint above rice terraces near Satria Swing for fewer crowds than the main lookout.

Wildlife

  • Long-tailed macaques (in peripheral areas)
  • Tropical kingfishers and colorful passerine birds

Conservation Note

Stick to marked trails, avoid single-use plastics, and choose local guides—respecting sacred sites and minimizing erosion helps protect fragile gorge and waterfall habitats.

Ubud’s landscapes are shaped by Bali’s subak irrigation system, an ancient cooperative water-management tradition reflected in nearby rice terraces and village temples.
