ITINERARY

1. TEGAL JADI VILLAGE

Approximate Time : 10.00 – 10.45 AM

You will visit an amazing stone quarry. Time seems to have stood still for centuries. The people from Tegal Jadi cut the stone, known as ‘paras', out of the cliff, the same way they have done for centuries, using traditional methods and techniques handed down for generations. The stone are rectangular shaped and weight about five kilogram (0.80 stone) each. They are used to build the temples and shrines of the island.

2. TAJEN SEDAHAN - MALGUNUNG VILLAGE

Approximate Time : 11.00 – 11.45 AM

At this stop you will be in typical family run farmhouse. It is very good example of the Balinese architectural concept which has buildings positioned in a courtyard accordingly to the family temple. Note the kitchen wall made out of bamboo and rendered with a mixture of mud and rice husk.

You will be taken for a short walk around the garden to discover some of the fruit and vegetables grown here : banana, mango, rambutan, salak, jackfruit, pineapple, tapioca and more. But also look for vanilla, cloves, as well as coffee and cacao. From our kitchens tea, coffee and biscuits have been brought in the baskets on top of your car and will be served to you in the courtyard.

3. RAINFOREST CAMP HIGH ON THE SLOPES OF THE SACRED MOUNT BATUKARU

Approximate Time : 13.00 – 14.30 PM

Your vehicle climbs to over 900 meters and you are above the rice bowl of Jatiluwih. The mountain air is cooler and the scenery becomes different. You are now entering the rain forest where giant bamboos and fern trees abound. Sacred mount Batukaru reveals its splendor and a short stroll lead you to our rainforest camp. Built out of bamboo, cut and assembled by local craftsmen, it sits in the middle of nowhere. You will be served a delicious Balinese lunch with red or white wine. Some of the produce is straight out of the rainforest. Taste the famous Bali Mountain Coffee but the Cognac remains French though ! Small shrines to the devinities that inhabit the rainforest of the sacred mount Batukaru, pure spring water running in the suspended bamboo, but most of all tremendous quietness and a great sense of peace; you are in THE SECRET SOUL OF BALI.

4. BALI HOT SPRING AT BANJAR BELULANG

Approximate Time : 15.00 – 15.30 PM

Situated in the rice fields is a sacred hot spring where local people have always come to bath. The spring bubbles up at temperature of approximately 30°C or 86°F. You will enjoy beautiful scenery of manicured terraced paddy fields that continue to function efficiently on an age old. Unique irrigation system.
