Bali Coast-to-Coast (13 days)

Bali Coast-to-Coast (13 days)

This adventure program unfolds the hidden secrets of Bali. Away from touristic beaches, it takes you right into the heart of Balinese life, from the west to the eastern side of the island, amidst traditional villages, temples, volcanoes and volcanic lakes, terraced paddy fields and lush tropical forests.

Welcome to Bali

Welcome services at Denpasar airport and transfer to Ubud, a city located in the hills north of Denpasar, in a hilly landscapé of green rice fields and ravines. Ubud is famous for its painting school. Despite the exponential tourist development it has experienced in recent years, the city has managed to preserve its tranquillitý and beautý. The rest of the day is free. Welcome dinner in the evening, an opportunity to get to know your accompanying team. Read more

Ubud, 2 nights

Ubud, City of Art

This morning you’ll visit Ubud Palace - a historical complex emblematic of Balinese history where the royal family once resided. Right across the street is the handicraft market́ where you can find all kinds of souvenirs. You then begin a walk through beautiful rice fields to Tampaksiring. A family of Balinese artists welcomes you to their traditional home and offers you a meal, no less typical accompanied by Balinese dances. In the afternoon, stop at the village of Tampaksiring to visit the temples of Gunung Kawi. This site is surely the most impressive of Bali with the 9 tombs of the family of King Wungsu, carved into the cliff. Visit also Tirta Empul and its sacred pools where hundreds of Balinese come every day to purify themselves. Return to Ubud in the early evening where you can walk freely in the village. Read more

Ubud, 2 nights

Ocean of Rice Fields

In the early morning, transfer to Jatiluwih, a small village located in the middle of the most beautiful rice fields of Bali, in the west-central part of the island. You then begin, in the early afternoon, a superb hike through this real ocean that represent the rice terraces that surround you.

Jatiluwih, 1 night

Trekking

Today you’ll start your long trek through Bali. Tropical forests and rice terraces are the landscapes that mark your way to the village of Wongayagede, located on the southern slopes of the volcano Batukaru (2,278 m). In the afternoon, visit the Luhur Batukaru temple, which emerges in a setting of lush greenery and where stand several multi-roofed "meru", some of which date back to the 17th century, dedicated to the ancestors of the Tabanan dynasty and to local protective deities. Read more

Wongayagede, 1 night

Immersion

You continue your hike through fields and rice fields towards the village of Belimbing.

Belimbing, 1 night

On the Heights

In the early morning, transfer to Munduk, via an extraordinary waterfall located near the village of Pujungan. Munduk is located in a region of Bali steeped in history, considered the cradle of Balinese culture. The former Dutch settlers liked to stay here as a resort from the old colonial capital of Singaraja (on the north coast). In the early afternoon, you walk around the village to discover the beautý of the surrounding nature. The surroundings of Munduk indeed form a picturesque picture with its coffeé and clove plantations neaŕ forests and waterfalls. Read more

Munduk, 1 night

The Lake Disrict

Your trek of the day takes you to Candi Kuning, along the volcanic lakes Tamblingan and Buyan. These two lakes were once a single body of water until the huge landslide of 1818 separated them permanently. This magnificent hike is a pretext to discover the local agricultural and cultural life, by following and crossing the beautiful tropical forests of the island. You visit the superb Hindu-Buddhist temple of Ulun Danau. This place is enchanting, with its huge banyan tree at the entrance and its beautiful gardens. One of the temples is entrenched on a small island, and its 11-level roof is elegantly reflected in the waters of the lake. You then take the pulse of Bedugul's picturesque market́, before continuing our drive to the village of Catur, located halfway between Lake Bratan and the Mt. Batur caldera. Read more

Bedugul, 1 night

Batur Volcano

In the early morning, short walk in the surroundings of the village, through beautiful orange and coffee plantations. Back to your host's house at the end of the morning, this is an opportunity to deepen your knowledge of rural life by possibly attending a cockfight (one of the main passions of the Balinese, which is also considered a sacred local ritual) and observing the habits and customs of these villagers, hardly used to mass tourism. Short transfer, then, to Kedisan, located at the foot of the volcano Batur (1,717m). Climb the volcano through the fields of solidified lava. You then begin your descent after having bypassed the 4 craters created by the successive eruptions. Read more

Kedisan, 1 night

Eastern Bali

In the middle of the morning, transfer to the Bali Aga village of Trunyan, along Lake Batur. Visit by boat to the cemetery where the bodies of the deceased decompose in the open air. In the late morning, transfer to the famous temple of Kehen, one of the most important and most aesthetic of Bali. Transfer to Sidemen after the visit. Read more

Sidemen, 2 nights

Authentic Bali

The morning is devoted to a nice hike of about 4 hours around Sidemen, through high altitude plantations and rice fields. During this walk, you will go along many hamlets, favourable to a meeting with the local population, and also cross an old suspension bridge. The vegetation is luxuriant and the landscape very exotic. Read more

Sidemen, 2 nights

Peak of the Gods

Night ascent of Agung volcano (it is imperative to reach the summit early in the morning to have a clear view). At dawn, you reach one of the edges of the crater, at the altitude of 2,850m. You are in a way at the antecima of the Agung volcano. Bali's highest and most revered mountain, Agung volcano dominates virtually the entire south and east of the island with its imposing silhouette, often shrouded in a veil of clouds and mist. Although most books and maps lend it a height of 3,142 meters, some say that the top did not resist́ the 1963 eruption and that it is now only 3,014 meters! After the descent, you return to Sidemen. In the late morning, short transfer to the royal baths of Tirtagangga (whose exact translation is "The waters of the Ganges"), on the southeastern slopes of Agung. Officially known as Tirta Ayu, this complex of freshwater pools was one of the many water palaces built by a king of Karangasem. This place surrounded by a beautiful spectacle of rice terraces is the ideal place to relax after your long hours of walking. Read more

Tirtagangga, 1 night

Original Bali

You resume your trekking through fields and rice paddies, to the Bali Aga village of Tenganan which has preserved́ the Balinese culture prior to the Javanese influence of the Hindu Majapahit dynasty. To preserve their village from the ill effects of intrusion by non-initiates of the Batara Indra cult, all visitors are welcomed there from noon to nightfall, after which everyone is asked́ to continue on their way. There was a time when the villagers of Tenganan would even sweep away the footprints of visitors to completely erase their coming. In the afternoon, transfer to the beach resort of Sanur. The rest of the afternoon is free. In the evening, farewell dinner by the sea. Read more

Sanur, 1 night
