Walk the rainforest rim above Tamblingan and Buyan lakes, cross the water in a traditional dugout canoe and finish with a buffet lunch in Bedugul. This guided, private tour combines cultural insight with easy jungle trekking.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of the cool, air‑conditioned van into a band of fog that clings to the hills above Bedugul. The jungle here breathes quietly: ferns lift their fronds like hands, birds call from tiered canopy, and the lake below tilts silver through the trees. A local guide checks your water, points to a carved shrine, and the walk begins — slow, steady, and intimate with the undergrowth.
