Cycling & Rafting Around Ubud

This excursion combines two of the most enjoyable ways to experience Bali: a leisurely cycling tour through the highlands and an exhilarating rafting adventure through the lush valleys of Ubud. Suitable for most travellers with a reasonable level of fitness, it offers the perfect balance of activity, scenery and cultural discovery.

Your day begins with a hotel pick-up and private transfer to the Mount Batur region, where magnificent views of the lake and volcano set the scene for the adventure ahead. From here, a relaxed cycling journey of approximately 20 kilometres begins, following a predominantly downhill route through traditional villages, past temples, rice fields and tropical plantations, where everyday Balinese life unfolds at an unhurried pace. Along the way, you will have the opportunity to sample freshly picked tropical fruits while gaining a deeper appreciation of Bali’s rural landscapes. The cycling tour concludes with a delicious lunch in a picturesque setting.

In the afternoon, the adventure continues with a rafting excursion on the Ayung River, Bali’s longest rafting route. The river winds its way through a spectacular green gorge framed by waterfalls, dramatic rock formations and dense jungle on both sides. The rapids are varied yet accessible for beginners, while the impressive surroundings ensure an exciting experience for all. Experienced guides provide clear instructions and ensure a safe, enjoyable journey throughout.

By the end of the day, you will have discovered Bali from two entirely different perspectives: the peaceful highlands surrounding Mount Batur and the vibrant river gorge of Ubud. It is an active and memorable experience that beautifully combines nature, adventure and local character.

The above programme operates on an international basis with other guests. Naturally, it is also possible to book this excursion as a private experience. We would also be delighted to create a fully tailor-made programme designed to suit your individual interests and preferences.
