Highlights
  • Bedugul Market - An early morning pick-up is essential to see what needs to be seen without skipping anything of the jaw-dropping beauty of the north After a scenic drive, guests will arrive at the Bedugul market where buying and selling fresh produce of the region (such as strawberries and wild orchids) continues to be done traditionally. \nThe region is also known as a peaceful mountain retreat.\n- Ulun Danu Bratan Temple - After soaking in the atmosphere of this market and perhaps trying out something that is for sale, you drive on to Lake Bratan, home to floating Pura Ulun Danu Bratan. One of the holiest temples, built entirely on small islands and dedicated to Dewi Danu, the water goddess, has yet to find a match in terms of charm. Guests will quickly notice that the climate around this temple is a bit cooler compared to the seaside areas of the south; this has to do with its location above sea level.\n- Buleleng District - You cross the mountains over a serpentine road until you have a stunning view of the Bali Sea in Buleleng where we follow the coastline in the direction of Lovina. The beaches of Lovina are covered with black sand, and it is right here where lunch will be served. \n- Banjar Hot Springs - Moving along to the town of Banjar, home of the hot springs with, as they say, healing properties. The high concentration of sulphur content of the water has proven to have nourishing effects on your skin. A second pool is smaller and warmer, fed consistently by the water emerging from the mouths of stone dragons and barongs. We give you the chance to enjoy a healthy dip here before we head back in the direction of southern Bali and your hotel.
