Your first day is in South Bali with a wide range of activities to choose from, one activity for the morning and one for the afternoon You activity options are: • Surfing lesson on Kuta Beach • SUP (Stand Up Paddle Board) lesson in Jimbaran Bay • Sea Kayak & Catamaran in Sanur • Fishing from a local Balinese fishing boat known as a Jukung • Wakeboarding/Water Skiing at Bali Cable Ski Park • Urban cycle Note: Couples, families and groups please make the same selections

0730 Depart Bali Bintang Hotel to arrive at Rafting start points by 0930 Choose between Rafting the easier Ayung River (Grade 2-3 grade rapids) OR the more challenging Telaga Waja river (Grade 3-4 rapids) Both rivers take you through some of the most stunning scenery in Bali with towering waterfalls, high cliffs and lush river valleys along with exhilarating rapids and some calming flat water sections. Note: the lower number or Grade, the easier the rapids. Both rivers have some exciting sections for those who have not rafted much (or at all).

Mount Batur

12.30-13.00 Drive to Villa Jempana. As we come to the top of the caldera outer rim at Kintamani you will be met by a view that you will never forget as you first look out over Mt Batur, Lake Batur, the lava flows, villages within the caledra and towering mountains in the distance, including the mother of all Bali’s mountains, Mt Agung The drive time is approximately 1 hour 15 minutes from Ayung river and from Tela Waja. 14.30 Arrive Villa Jempana 16.00-17.30 Get ready for some excitement as you explore the trails and lower slopes of Mt Batur on an ATV/Quad bike. We think this is by far the best location for Quad Biking in Bali.

Mount Batur

Morning: Hike Mt Batur Volcano within the Kintamani Caldera. With good reason, this is the most popular hike in Bali and can easily be done with a moderate level of fitness. If the skies are clear, you will have unforgettable views of the caldera, lava flows from eruptions back in the early 1960’s, Lake Batur & Bali’s biggest mountain, Mt Agung. Note: Guests can choose to do the early sunrise hike or get up a little later and do the hike around 7.30-8.00. If the sunrise is not important to you, we like the later hike as most of the other hikers have finished by then or on their way back down the mountain. If you choose the early hike you can have brunch back at Villa Jempana as part of your package. If you have breakfast and then hike, you can find somewhere on the way to Munduk for lunch

Munduk

12.00 Drive to Munduk. We will take the scenic mountain route to north which takes about 2 hours 40 minutes, arriving by about 14.30 15.30-16.00 If you’re still feeling energetic then choose between a rice fields walk or go for a Mt Bike ride. Both start from the Lesong hotel and are led by a local guide who can show you all the best places and introduce you to the local way of life.

Gitgit

Morning: Choose between: Canyoning (departing 0700 from Lesong) OR Cycling OR Hiking in the Munduk area We highly recommend that you select Canyoning as your activity. We use Canyoning Bali to run this activity. They are a very professional, experienced and safe operator that has selected the best river valleys in the Gigit area of north Bali. If you are not clear what Canyoning is, it’s the process of moving through the natural environment of a Canyon using various methods including walking, rappelling (abseiling) jumping, swimming, scrambling and sliding. It's great fun, sometimes a challenge and puts you in close contact with your natural environment.

Pemuteran
