Alterstay.co – Planning to go to Ubud and are highly enthusiastic about nature? Well, don’t miss this article because what we are about to tell you is one of Bali’s most popular tourist destinations, Tegenungan Waterfall.
What destinations are we talking about? It’s Tegenungan Waterfall
Tegenungan Waterfall, also known as Air Terjun Kemenuh, is a paradise for those who love nature since it offers a breathtaking view of a waterfall. There are many trees and damp plants, which gives the impression that there is an adventure in the forest.
The entrance fee is affordable, we can say. It costs only Rp 20.000,00 or $1,28 to enter the waterfall, and you can add another Rp 20.000,00 or $1,28 if you want to go to the waterfall’s top. The waterfall is open to the public from 6.30 am. The earlier you arrive, the better it gets since you can enjoy the warm touch of the morning sun on your skin. Besides, morning is not for everyone (if you know what we mean), so you might not be surrounded by other tourists.
Before you reach the waterfall, you must first walk down about 100 stairs. Pretty challenging, isn’t it? You better prepare for it. We know it’s a bit tiring. But we promise you, as you walk down the stairs, you will see the magnificent view of the 15m waterfall from a distance that makes you forget about the tiredness. The steps can be slippery, so it’s better to wear shoes instead of sandals to avoid accidents.
What to expect after reaching the Tegenungan Waterfall?
First, you may feel the fresh air entering your lungs and calming your mind. This is great for you who wanna escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. You can also hear the sound of the water flow’s roar from the Petanu River on top of the waterfall and the birds’ chirps. The water could re-energize your soul because of its clear water, so make sure you take a swim or dip your feet into the water (it’s better to wear your swimming suit tho).
Soaking or swimming sounds too ordinary or boring for some people. That’s why some tourists attempt to jump from the top of the waterfall. This may be fun and boosts adrenaline, but remember that the water is not that deep. You might hurt yourself afterward.
We know you deserve some good photos while visiting Tegenungan Waterfall, and we have some pleasant news. There are some favorite photo spots for you to take pictures or videos as the waterfall serves the nature scenery and jungle-like atmosphere. Upload it to social media. Keep it in the photo frame.
