• Balikaru - Escape the hustle and bustle and uncover the spiritual essence of Bali in a quaint mountain village nestled at the base of Mount Batukaru, surrounded by lush green rice terraces.
  Receive a warm welcome and wander through a vibrant garden filled with colorful blossoms, tropical herbs, and spices, while enjoying the gentle melodies of the bamboo instrument known as Rindik.
  The highlight of your visit is a purification ceremony at a secluded jungle temple by a serene river. Clad in traditional Balinese temple attire, you will prepare offerings of flowers and incense with the Mangku, the local priest, and participate in a profoundly moving ritual of cleansing and blessing—an authentic spiritual experience seldom shared with tourists.
  Afterward, savor a delightful homemade Balinese meal at our genuine village Warung, then join a farmer in planting rice and meet the friendly animals at the Balikaru farm. Discover the stingless Trigona bees and sample their unique, nutritious honey.
  Conclude the day with a tranquil stroll through the charming mountain village and a visit to Air Terjun Pengempu, a hidden waterfall.

Return to your hotel in the late afternoon, carrying with you the serene magic of Bali’s mountains and the warmth of its people.
