The day opens with the drone of engines and river water calling — a narrow track leads out of Ubud’s bustle and into a patchwork of rice terraces and low rainforest. Jungle buggies kick up red volcanic dust as drivers choose their pace; ahead, the Ayung River cuts a cool green line through cliffs and palms, daring you to meet it.
