The Campuhan Ridge walk is amongst the top attractions in Ubud.
40 minutes
2.3km
Hill
A beautiful walk with greenery, steep gorges and revealing vistas. As the track winds along the sounds of gushing water from the river below fills the silence. Along the way beautiful panoramas – open and close covered by lush jungle undergrowth.
Campuhan Ridge Walk is popular with locals and visitors, and one of the most photographed destinations in Ubud. Joggers frequent early mornings when the air is fresh and cool, but it also suits a slower pace to take in the sights at anytime of day.
The track can become overgrown in the wet season, and is about 2 kms long. The route is about 20/30 minutes one way, depending on how often you stop for photos, so allow 1-1/2 – 2 hours there and back.
Once we reach the Stone Gates there are many small houses, shops and cafes., The choice is yours to enjoy a cool drink or coffee and continue into the ricefields, or turn round and return to the start. The commentary will recommence making the return journey just as informative and interesting as the way there.
