Get ready for an unforgettable full day with Gorilla Adventure Bali as you combine the rush of Ayung River rafting, the spiritual serenity of Tirta Empul Holy Water Temple, and the tranquil beauty of Tegalalang Rice Terrace. This all-in-one adventure is perfect for travelers who want to embrace Baliโs natural wonders and spiritual heritage in one enriching journey.
First, begin your day with an exciting rafting experience on the famous Ayung River, Baliโs most popular white water rafting destination. With a 10-kilometer route stretching through Ubudโs lush valleys, jungle cliffs, and hidden waterfalls, this 2-hour adventure is perfect for beginners and thrill-seekers alike. Accompanied by professional and friendly rafting guides, youโll paddle through a series of thrilling rapids, glide past intricate rock carvings, and feel the splash of Baliโs untamed wilderness, all set within a lush, tropical paradise.
Continue your journey to the sacred Tirta Empul Temple in Tampaksiring. This holy spring temple, founded in 962 A.D., is known for its sacred water believed to have purification powers. Participate in the traditional Melukat ritual, a spiritual cleansing bath, guided by local temple customs. As you wear a kamen and step into the cool waters, feel a deep connection to Baliโs spiritual roots. The templeโs historic courtyards, flowing fountains, and ancient Balinese architecture offer both peace and insight into the islandโs living culture.
After your spiritual cleanse, it’s time to slow down and take in the awe-inspiring views of the Tegalalang Rice Terrace. Located in the highlands of Ubud, this UNESCO-recognized site features cascading layers of emerald-green rice paddies that stretch across the hillsides. Take a peaceful walk along the edges, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and donโt forget to snap a few photos, this iconic landscape is one of Baliโs most photographed spots.
