At dawn in Ubud you push past rice terraces into humid green silence, the air threaded with incense and motorbike exhaust as guides load helmets and ATVs. Day one alternates between a 1.5-hour jungle ATV track across mud, river crossings and rice paddies, a walk through the Sacred Monkey Forest, and a reflective stop at Tirta Empul to observe Balinese purification rituals.
