Kestala, Gumung and Tenganan Trekking


One route in particular commences in the village of Kestala in East Bali and is a 3-hour journey with some mild hiking involved. From the drop of point trekkers must first wade across the Buhu River where a nearby dam is an important water source for the communal irrigation systems of local rice terraces and farm land.

Venturing up to the dike-track, trekkers will be greeted by a stunning expanse of rice-fields. When weather conditions are favourable there is a clear view of Gunung Agung, the highest and most sacred mountain in Bali. While to the east, Mount Bisbis of Lempuyang rises in the distance.
