What to do and see in Bali, Indonesia: The Best Scenic Walking Areas
Bali is a living postcard, an Indonesian paradise that feels like a fantasy. Soak up the sun on a stretch of fine white sand, or commune with the tropical creatures as you dive along coral ridges or the colorful wreck of a WWII war ship. On shore, the lush jungle shelters stone temples and mischievous monkeys. The “artistic capital” of Ubud is the perfect place to see a cultural dance performance, take a batik or silver-smithing workshop, or invigorate your mind and body in a yoga class.

I had a great time at twin hill. You have a wonderful view at the top, can use the big swing and you can even hold two big snakes which was a great experience. And it only costs 18000 idr :)

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2,623 reviews
Nominated for designation as a UNESCO World Heritage site, Jatiluwih offers a beautiful view of contoured rice terraces irrigated using an impressive communal water system developed by Balinese farmers. The scenic drive through the quaint villages and verdant slopes of the central coastal regency of Tabanan adds to the experience.

The Jatiluwih rice terraces in the namesake upland village in West Bali are most famous for their dramatic and exotic landscapes. The cool highlands and the breathtaking scenery of this village at the foot of Mount Batukaru makes for wonderful photo opportunities, and serves as a soothing retreat away from the island’s crowded south. Once a UNESCO Cultural Heritage Site candidate, the Jatiluwih rice terraces comprise over 600 hectares of rice fields that follow the flowing topography of the Batukaru mountain range. These are maintained by a traditional water management cooperative known as ‘subak’, which dates back to the 9th century. The cooperative itself eventually won recognition as a dominant factor in Bali’s ‘cultural landscape’ entry on the heritage list.
6. Campuhan Ridge Walk

4.5 based on 6,515 reviews
The Campuhan Ridge Walk is arguably the best known Ubud trek and with good reason. The sparse crowds and the aesthetically rich vistas remind one of why people from around the world come to Bali. The trail starts at the historical origin of Ubud, the confluence (or Campuhan) of the Wos Rivers.

Although not often mentioned in travel guides, The Ridge walk was, for us, the most memorable part of exploring Ubud. A long walk through the rice fields, with magnificent sceneries, rice fields, and quiet villages was such a great escape from hustle and bustle of the Ubud city center. The day we have visited wasn't overly hot and in fact, we had a heavy shower along the way which was actually really nice and romantic. We stopped in Karsa cafe for an organic juice and one more spectacular and tranquil view on lotus-filled pond and rice fields. If you feel like it, massage service is available too. Don't forget a good pair of shoes and umbrella! A fantastic day we will remember forever!

Well designed layout. Scrupulously clean and beautifully presented salon on Jalan Danau Tamblingan right opposite the Maya Resort and Spa. Cosmo’s Balinese massage is excellent (assuming all of the masseurs deliver in the same way!). After many less than average massages in Sanur, given by ladies with dubious anatomical understanding , the Cosmo experience really stood out as the best to date. If you walk by, don’t be put off by the downstairs area which looks nice, but nothing special. Upstairs is where the treatments are given and it’s just gorgeous. Private rooms, fans, a/c, showers in each room too. IMO, Cosmo and The Nest Beachside are the two best spas in the Sanur strip. You do pay more of course, but in the grand scheme of things it’s not very much at all! Highly recommended. But do remember to book!

At the time of visit, entrance was free but they had constructed an admission office so I presume they were going to introduce a charge in the future. I used to go in the morning after breakfast, walk off the buffet breakfast. We also went later in the afternoon and at both times the tide was high. This is a rocky cliff where the ocean waves hit and blows over to the crowd. Some patience is required as the waves build up as a crescendo. You also need patience to get a good spot to take pictures and we did move around a bit to see the waves from different viewpoints.
