Overview
This experience combines the breathtaking natural beauty of Bali with authentic encounters with locals.

You will visit remote temples hidden deep in the forest that few visitors ever see and honor the spirits of the mountains before setting off on your jungle hike.
After your trek, experience the hospitality of a picturesque mountain village. Enjoy a healthy welcome drink and homemade lunch, as well as a short massage to re-energize you after the trek.
This day in the jungle world of Mount Batukaru is not just a trek—it is a journey into the mountain culture and natural heart of Bali.

Luhur Batukaru TempleYou arrive at the foot of the mountain and at Pura Luhur Batukaru, one of Bali’s most sacred temples. Surrounded by ancient trees and soft mountain mist, locals come to this temple to seek blessings before important journeys. You’ll do the same—joining a short temple visit to “ask permission” from the forest spirits before entering their realm. The scent of incense, the sound of flowing water, and the quiet devotion of the place create a deeply peaceful start to your trek.

Mount BatukaruStep into the lush rainforest that blankets Mount Batukaru. Guided by your personal guide and a local ranger, follow narrow jungle paths beneath towering trees and giant ferns. The air is fresh, the forest alive with birdsong and the distant call of monkeys. Your ranger knows the jungle like his home—pointing out wild orchids, medicinal herbs, and secret trails. Along the way, he shares stories of nature’s balance and local survival skills passed down through generations. Midway through your adventure, pause at a hidden jungle temple. Freshly brewed coffee and homemade Balinese snacks await you here—a simple but unforgettable picnic surrounded by the sounds of the forest. It’s a moment of calm and connection with nature’s rhythm before continuing your trek.
-
Mount BatukaruAfter your hike, relax on a scenic drive to a peaceful mountain village. The road winds past picturesque rice terraces—a masterpiece of traditional irrigation known as subak. Stop for photos and take in the breathtaking mountain scenery before reaching the next destination.
-
From the upper village, a short walk leads you to Balikaru, a family community surrounded by tropical greenery. Stroll through the garden filled with more than forty species of plants, herbs, and spices—from lemongrass to galangal, from chili to pandanus. Learn how they’re used in Balinese healing and cooking traditions. A refreshing drink and a 15-minute Balinese massage will restore your energy and balance after the trek.
-
Enjoy a relaxed lunch at Warung Balikaru, a family-run restaurant with beautiful garden views. Your hosts prepare Nasi Campur Tumpeng, a colorful and traditional Balinese meal served with local vegetables, meats, and fragrant spices. Sit back, enjoy the breeze, and feel the easy rhythm of mountain life. Changing rooms and showers are available if you wish to freshen up before continuing your day. Note: If you are looking for a place to freshen up after the trek, the Balikaru Activity Center has changing facilities, toilets, and showers.
-
Belulang Hot SpringYour journey continues with a visit to the Balikaru Farm, where you’ll discover how villagers cultivate rice, cocoa, coffee, and tropical fruits using traditional, sustainable methods. Wander through the farm filled with herbs and spices, and sample fresh produce straight from the fields—a genuine taste of Balinese village life. Afterwards, enjoy a leisurely walk through the mountain village, passing traditional houses and everyday scenes of rural Bali. Your guide shares insights into local customs and the community’s close connection to the land. The walk ends at the Belulang Hot Springs, where locals bathe in the natural sulfur waters believed to have healing properties. Relax in the peaceful setting or dip your feet before heading to your final stop.
-
Pengempu WaterfallBefore you return to your hotel, make a final stop at Pengempu Waterfall, a true hidden gem tucked away in Bali’s lush countryside. A short walk through tropical vegetation leads you to this serene spot—where clear water cascades into a small, emerald pool surrounded by jungle greenery. Take a deep breath, listen to the sounds of nature, and capture a few last photos of your unforgettable day in the heart of Bali. It’s the perfect ending—calm, refreshing, and deeply peaceful.
