Bedugul
So you have come to Bali, Indonesia on your holiday and after a little time in the busy, touristy southern part of the island you’re ready for something different. Have you heard of Bedugul? Nestled in the mountains in the central part of Bali island, is much less crowded with package tourism and also boasts much cooler temperatures than the coastal areas. You can visit as part of a day trip from Kuta or Seminak, but if you’d like to stay longer, accommodation is also available to suit any budget.
The town of Bedugul is about 45 km straight north out of Denpasar, on the road to Singaraja. In the area around the town you’ll find three fairly large, picturesque lakes: Beratan, Buyan and Tamblingan, and actually the entire area around these lakes is referred to as Bedugul. As soon as you arrive you will immediately notice that the air is cooler and feels cleaner too!
The first thing you’ll want to do is visit the Temple at Lake Bratan. You have probably already seen it on postcards-it’s a gorgeous, serene looking small temple surrounded by the lake. The Bali botanical Gardens are nearby in Candikuning traditional market, and are absolutely worthy of a visit, ranging over 240 ha. If you are a fan of waterfalls, Munduk is nearby as well.
When people think of Bali they normally think of rice terraces, and some of the most beautiful on the island are in Bedugul, at Jatiluwih. You certainly had better at least get out of your vehicle and breathe in some of the most spectacular scenery that Bali has to offer. Take an hour and do one of the hikes through the area, which was recently nominated to be a UNESCO world heritage site.
The area around Bedugul also has bird watching, and Hot Springs just to the south at Angseri. It is quite pleasant as you drive along to see cloves drying on the side of the road, as well as cacao plants, and coffee and vanilla.
Be sure to take at least a day to visit the mountainous area of Bali because not only is the terrain and weather are quite pleasurable change, in some ways it’s like taking a step back in time to see what Bali was like before it became known mostly as a tourist attraction. The mountainous lake area around Bedugul is perfect for this.
