Pair adrenaline with scenery on a single-day trip from Ubud: giant photo-ready swings over a jungle gorge followed by an 11 km guided run down the Ayung River. This tour includes transport, a coffee-plantation stop, lunch, and safety gear.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the minivan into a humid, green pocket of central Bali where palms and banyan roots frame a steep valley. A broad wooden platform juts over the drop; the swing line hangs out over the gorge and the valley seems to hold its breath as you push off and the forest rushes beneath you. Later the Ayung River waits—narrow, tumbling, and impatient—its current daring you through a succession of class II–III rapids carved into volcanic soils.

History
The Ayung River has long supported Ubud’s irrigation systems and rice terraces; in recent decades it became a rafting route as tourism expanded into central Bali.
Conservation
Choose operators that follow waste-management and local-hire practices; avoid promoting activities that disturb village rituals or wildlife and leave no trace on riverbanks.

Carry water and have a light breakfast; lunch is included but rafting demands steady energy without heavy stomachs.
