 HIDDEN BEAUTIFULL NATURAL

1**The Sacred and Secret Canyon of Sukawati – Hidden Canyon Beji Guwang**

Near Pura Beji Guwang in Sukawati, there’s a sacred, secret canyon that’s so incredible, it’s sure to inspire anyone and everyone. For any artist, photographer, creative, or simply anyone who wants to be wowed by a real life view of nature’s masterpiece – this secret canyon is a must-visit.

The craziest thing about this canyon, is if you look hard enough – it is so uniquely shaped, one can even see a crying skull and other faces (lions?!) in the abstract landscape. And if that’s not enough, the colours around make for an amazing visual feast too.

Sit on the flat of the canyon rocks, and dangle your feet while admiring the view – or get a little crazy and see how much deeper you can go into the canyon. (Make sure you’re as safe and careful as possible, of course!)

When getting here, do be ultra careful as you will have to pass several rivers with a sticky muddy floor, and you might also have to climb some big slippery rocks.

Other than that feel free to explore to your heart’s content and fully appreciate this magnificent find!

2.Meditate amongst nature – The Green Cliffs and Little *Grotto of Undisan Bangli

Getting here will be an adventure itself, with views of rice paddies, forests and ravines – and waterfalls nearby. The Green Cliffs of Undisan are basically towering moss-covered cliffs making up the sides of a ravine.

What is the bigger secret of the already undiscovered wonder of the Green Cliffs?

If you follow the water under where the green cliffs merge,  you will discover a secret grotto hidden inside!

Depending on how adventurous you are, one might even swim into the cave, just to explore what’s beneath the malachite-coloured cliffs!

If not, simply sit on one of the rocks below the green cliffs, and have a session of peaceful meditation in this beautiful secluded location.

* 3.Hike up to greater heights – Mende Hill**

If you and your partner don’t have a lot in common, it’s time to share interest in a great hobby that would suit you both.

Greater views come after the hardest climb; relationship-wise too!

Fill your couple life with adventures, get out of your comfort zone, wander where the Wi-Fi is weak but where the connection between you both is the strongest!

As we all know, a relationship is like a hike up a mountain, it needs courage, strength and helping hands from both sides.

We’ve got this on the list as it is one of the most lesser-known hiking spots in Bali, which also means no crowd and privacy assured.

The hike is relatively easy but oh-so-totally worth it and scenic!  The way up the hill might sometimes be challenging, but what can be better than giving each other mental and physical support? Who knows, you might both fall in love with hiking!

Pq.S. Girls, relax – it’s totally fine to be dirty and smelly around your partner… sometimes! They say doing sports together can bond couples together!

**4.Mount Batur’s Volcanic Landscape – Desa Pinggan**

Mount Batur (1,717m) is the most visited volcano in Bali, but most visitors usually join the tourist hordes at Kintamani village for views of the majestic fire-breather.

For a view of Batur that’s arguably more spectacular, we suggest you head to the more isolated village of Pinggan.

Here you can experience the fierce splendour of the active volcano in a more solitary, meditative setting.

Batur is at its most photogenic at sunrise and sunset, and even makes for impressive night photography – with the lights of Pinggan village spread out at the foot of the mountain, and a sky full of stars twinkling above the peak.

**5.Picnic with a twist (or a slant) – Bukit Asah Bugbug**

There’s nothing better than a picnic at the secret pa1radise known as Bukit Asah Bugbug, Karangasem.

This slanted hillside overlooks the ocean, giving you the perfect setting for a picnic with an interesting twist (or a slant)!

Yet another great romantic spot for lovers, this picnic spot is perfect for catching the sunrise – and panoramic views of the Indian Ocean, its coral reefs and small islands.

**6.The Twin Lakes of Tamblingan and Buyan**

With their serene, mystical beauty, these twin crater lakes sit side by side, split in the middle by a one kilometer stretch of forest.

The lakes are the life-source for the surrounding communities, and you may even see locals plying the waters in traditional dug-out canoes.

To view both lakes together, the best vantage point is from the top of the hill at Asah Gobleg Village.

Trekking the forests around the lakes, you’ll discover some of the most pristine natural habitats in Bali – home to lively troops of monkeys, squirrels and countless birds.

**7.Check out the straits that separate Bali and the Nusa Islands – Bukit Tengah*"

Atop rolling hills and endless greenery, you’ll find a sunrise view that’s worth the insanely early wake up call. You can see both blue oceans and sprawling green hills at the same time which makes for a spectacular energiser. Early in the morning the mist rolls over and gives it an almost magical feel too, so you definitely don’t want to miss it!

Hidden on the east of Bali’s coast, it almost feels like you’re on a different island! It’s the perfect escape from the busy bustling streets of Canggu, and it’s also way less busy than Mt Agung or Mt Batur as it’s still relatively undiscovered!

Head over there quick, and keep it cleans so others can enjoy it too!m

**8.A gorgeous view of the majestic mountain that is the gem of Bali – Bukit Cinta**

Mt Agung is by far one of the most spectacular views in Bali, and to see it early in the morning covered by mist and surrounded by rice paddy fields is the absolute best way to do so. Take a trip to the east of Bali, an area that’s still so unexplored, and that’s where you’ll find this viewpoint.

Bukit Cinta, directly translates to Love Hill, and it’s definitely fitting as you’ll just love being on top of it, staring at the beast of a volcano and knowing that such beauty can also cause such destruction.

**9.Marigold fields forever – Desa Temukus*

Desa Temukus (also known as ’Temukus Village’) is not green but orange. The place blossoms with pretty yellowish-orange flowers!

If you’ve ever wondered, there’s one particular flower used in religious rituals in Bali – the marigold flower, or locally known as ‘Gemitir’. It’s easy to imagine how wonderful it could be to be in the middle of flower fields full of marigold!

Desa Temukus is a quiet village in East Bali, close to the holiest (but sadly most commercial) temple in Bali. Many of its inhabitants grow flowers, so you can find many flower fields here. But don’t forget to ask for permission from the locals before entering their fields!

Another good news for travellers – the area also has a flower field of Edelweiss (or otherwise called ‘Kasna’). And one crucial tip: it’s better to visit the place before the harvesting season, so you can see the lushest flower fields ever (usually before a major religious day, so do check with your local Balinese friends about the dates, as Bali uses a lunar calendar so the dates change every year).

Located in Besakih temple location of Desa Temukus, 

**10.Trek to the heart of mystery and magic – The Secret Gardens of Sambangan**

Hidden away in the far north of Bali is the village of Sambangan. Only the locals and a handful of savvy tourists have experienced the breathtaking splendour of the jungles and waterfalls near Sambangan, known as the Secret Gardens.

The gardens are a chain of natural pools and cascading waterfalls hidden within the lush Balinese rainforest. There are seven falls in total and it takes a three hour trek deep into the jungle to explore most of them. Remote and unspoiled, the scenery here is among the most beautiful in Bali.

The pools are filled with cold spring water, perfect for cooling off after the long jungle trek, and some of the waterfalls even serve as natural water slides for the daring!

Located in The nearest resort area to Sambangan is Lovina on Bali’s north coast, 

**11.Drown in a sea of Celosia flowers – Belayu Florist**

While sunflowers may seem like the King of Instagram, Celosia flowers may just be the queens! This sea of red and yellow is the perfect spot to take some IG-worthy pictures and revel in the moment!

With an area of ​​60 hectares, you can guarantee that you’ll be satisfied after spending the day roaming around and exploring, it’s also the perfect place to bring your partner so that you can go for a romantic stroll!

If the gorgeous flowers aren’t enough, they also have decorated photo spots like flower arches for you to pose under and incredible wooden walkways for you to stroll through. Talk about a relaxing day!

Don’t forget to come early in the morning as it’s quite hot and you don’t want to get a sunburn. For women, there are hats available to rent for just Rp. 5,000 (Approximately USD $0.35)!

Address: Batannyuh, Marga, Tabanan Regency,

**12.Marvel at a sea of green – Jatiluwih Rice Terraces**

We’re all familiar with the rice terraces of Ubud, those classic photos you see on Instagram with the sun peeking out slightly above the clouds, pouring a most spectacular glow on the green fields.

What if we told you there was a bigger, better, and less crowded version? One which houses 600 hectares of rice terraces, and boasts a sea of green with endless layers!

The best part? You can explore as you like, find hidden photo spots, and sit down to listen to crickets and birds in the early hours of the morning – all to yourself!

**13.Infinity pool with unrivaled ocean views – Peguyangan Waterfall, Nusa Penida**

Peguyangan Waterfall on Nusa Penida isn’t a towering vertical torrent of water like the jungle falls in central Bali.

Instead, it’s a series of short, cascading spring fountains that eventually make their way over a steep ravine and into the sea.

Away from the ravine, the cascades make a great place for all to enjoy a ‘natural spa’, and a massage from the fast flowing waters as they burble over the shallow ledges and pools.

Reaching the springs involves a descent down narrow stairs against the wall of the ravine. After some 460 steps, the gorgeous sight of the cascades is both exhilarating and relieving.

14.Drive (or no) through a hole in a tree – Bunut Bolong Tree

In the Manggissari village, located in the western part of Bali, stands yet another majestic tree that’s renowned for its supernatural powers.

But unlike the giant banyan tree that supposedly grants wishes, the Bunut Bolong Tree (meaning “tree with a hole in it”) has a far more ominous history.

The tree has roots on either side of a stretch of road, forming an archway that visitors can drive through. Brides and grooms are advised to refrain from passing through this way, though – legend has it that those who do will end up separated.

To protect people from the power of the tree, another road has been constructed next to it for believers to pass through.

But regardless of your belief in the legend, there’s nothing like a bit of risk to pique the adventurer’s interest, isn’t it?
