Ubud Zipline & Saba Beach Horse Riding — Zip Over Rice Fields and Ride the Shore
Pair a calm horse ride along Bali’s black-sand Saba Beach with an adrenaline-charged zipline over Tegallalang’s rice terraces. This half-day combo blends coastal calm and highland panoramas with clear safety rules and local context.
The Experience
Before You Go
Observe weight limits
Horses have a 90 kg limit and the zipline enforces a 35 kg minimum—confirm your weight at booking to avoid day-of issues.
Time for light and views
Schedule the zipline in the morning for the best light and higher chances of seeing Mount Agung; afternoons bring more clouds and wind.
Footwear matters
Wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes for the stable and low-impact walking around platforms and village paths.
Protect gear from spray and rain
Bring a small waterproof bag for camera and phone—tropical showers and sea spray are common.
Local Knowledge

Conservation Note
Stay on established paths, avoid feeding wildlife, and support operators who practice humane horse care and minimize plastic waste to reduce impact.
The Tegallalang terraces are part of Bali’s Subak irrigation tradition — a cooperative system rooted in 9th–10th century water temples that shapes rice cultivation and community life.
