The Breathtaking North: Lake Bratan, Waterfall & Swing

★ 5.0 · 1 reviews⏱ 1 hour – 8 hours📍 Indonesia

About this tour

Chase Bali's northern showstoppers across a half-day or full-day outing that strings together Lake Beratan's temple-fringed waters, the photogenic Handara Gate, cascading waterfalls, and a clifftop swing overlooking emerald hills. You'll travel by private vehicle, stopping at each site long enough to absorb the landscape and pick up snippets of local history. Lunch breaks are self-funded, giving you flexibility to eat where you please.

Highlights

  • Lake Beratan's lakeside temple framed by volcanic peaks
  • Handara Gate—Bali's most-photographed gateway
  • Hidden waterfall tucked into northern jungle
  • Clifftop swing suspended above rice paddies and forest
  • Private transport avoids tour-bus queues
  • Learn Balinese culture behind each landmark

What to expect

Expect a photo-led route through Bali's north, hitting the major sights without rushing. You'll start at Lake Beratan, where you can walk temple grounds and admire the water. The Handara Gate comes next—a brief stop, but the crowds thin early if you time it right. From there, you'll head to a waterfall that requires a short scramble through vegetation; bring water shoes. The swing finale is the showstopper: you're strapped in safely and pushed out over a vertiginous drop, with nothing but trees and hills below. Transport is comfortable, stops are paced, and your driver handles navigation so you focus on the view.

Good to know

Wear sturdy shoes for waterfall access and loose clothing for the swing. Bring sunscreen and a hat—little shade at most stops. Pack a light backpack with water and snacks; lunch spots are casual warungs nearby, not included. Best visited early morning to beat heat and crowds.
