Campuhan Ridge Walk
Campuhan means the “place where two rivers meet.” This picturesque trail is an easy hike that takes you through a beautiful tropical forest, charming rice fields and stunning hills. You’ll cross a bridge over Campuhan River, which takes you past the Pura Gunung Lebah temple. Here you’ll find ancient carved gates that mark the beginning of the trail. You’ll also pass through small villages and view Mount Agung, an active volcano and the highest point in Bali.
Handara Golf Course Gate
A popular spot for photoshoots and tourists, Handara Gate is one of the island’s most Instagrammed locations. It’s the entrance to the luxurious Handara Golf Course and Resort, which is ranked one of the world’s 50 greatest golf courses. The Handara Gate (also known as the pathway to serenity) is a traditional Bali Hindu gate and an important part of Indonesian culture. The gate itself is complimented by incredible scenery, beautiful blue lakes and sprawling green lawns.
Tirta Empul Temple
Hindus have used this sacred water temple since the 10th Century. This national cultural heritage site is found near Tampaksiring. The temple compound includes large stone statues, ancient architecture, bubbling fountains and clear spring water ponds. Worshippers at the temple pray as they walk under the fountains, seeking to purify their souls and heal their minds and bodies. If you want to bathe in Tirta Empul’s healing waters, you must wear a sarong and scarf. If you forgot to bring your own, they will be provided to you at the entrance.
