More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step from the van into cool, green air—the valley smells of wet stone and young rice. A narrow track leads you under a low rock lip and suddenly light slices through a curtain of spray at Tukad Cepung, where the waterfall pours through a cliff like a secret river daring you to move closer. Later, stone steps at Kehen push upward, flanked by carved guardians and walls inlaid with porcelain, and the hum of village life settles over Penglipuran’s straight lanes.
