A five‑hour, technical canyoning expedition in North Bali featuring 12 rappels and a 50m waterfall descent beside Aling Waterfall. Expect powerful slides, cliff jumps, and a bat‑filled cave—best June–November.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off slick volcanic rock into a plunge pool the color of old jade and the waterfall immediately takes a voice—loud, insistent, daring you to move. For the next five hours Aling Canyon will push and catch you: natural slides that launch you forward, cliff-edge jumps that sharpen the breath, and a series of ropes where gravity becomes a measured instrument. The crescendo is a 50‑meter rappel down the face of Aling Waterfall, water spraying like cold static as you descend.

History
Streams in north Bali carved through relatively recent lava flows, creating the steep gorges guides now use; local villages historically used these springs for irrigation and ritual purification.
Conservation
High visitor pressure on narrow canyon trails can damage vegetation and disturb bats; choose operators who limit group size and carry out waste.
