Cycle village lanes and rice terraces on an e‑bike, share lunch in a Balinese compound, then swap pedals for paddles on the Ayung River. This half‑day combo balances cultural insight with Class 2–3 whitewater thrills.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You start on an electric bike, tires whispering along narrow village lanes as early light picks out rice terraces and temple roofs. The guide steers you past home gardens where women sort chilies and farmers tend paddies; bamboo groves crowd the riverbanks and monkeys watch from the canopy. By midday the route deposits you at a riverside compound for a traditional Balinese lunch, then a short transfer brings you to the Ayung River where the whitewater awaits.

Bring a small dry bag
