Jatiluwih Tour
The UNESCO subak terraces, a hidden waterfall, and the cool lake country above Bedugul.
The day itself.
A day spent almost entirely above eight hundred metres, where the rice gives way to clove and coffee and the air drops about six degrees. Bring a layer; people never expect to need one in Bali.
Leke-Leke opens the day: a slim single fall at the end of a flat fifteen minute path through bamboo, and usually about six other people there. Then Jatiluwih, six hundred hectares of terrace still irrigated by the thousand-year-old subak system UNESCO listed in 2012. It is what Tegallalang looks like without the swings.
The afternoon runs the lake road. Ulun Danu Beratan sits out on the water, the Handara gate frames the mountains behind it, and the Wanagiri viewpoints look straight down onto Buyan and Tamblingan, twin lakes in one old caldera with a strip of forest between them.
