You arrive before the light thickens, stepping out of an air‑conditioned minivan into the humid hush of Bali’s interior. A chorus of leaves and rushing water greets you; the first waterfall is a slit of silver down mossy rock, the second hides behind a curtain of stone. The guide counts off the stairs and leads the way—through banana palms, across shallow streams, until the jungle parts and the falls take the stage.
