Bali is a great destination for travelers who enjoy outdoor activities and adventure. If you want to explore more than Bali's temples and beaches, an ATV ride and white water rafting on the Ayung River are two activities worth considering.

An ATV ride takes you along off-road trails, while Ayung River rafting lets you experience Bali's tropical scenery from the water. Both activities offer a different way to enjoy the island's natural surroundings.

1. Bali ATV Adventure

An ATV adventure is a fun way to explore Bali beyond the main roads. Depending on the route offered by the activity operator, you may ride through muddy tracks, green landscapes, rural areas, forest paths, or other off-road terrain.

You will receive instructions before the ride and use the safety equipment provided by the operator. Follow your guide's instructions throughout the activity, especially on wet or uneven ground.

ATV rides are available for individual riders and, at some operators, for two people sharing one ATV. The available options and age requirements depend on the operator, so check these details before booking.

2. White Water Rafting on the Ayung River

Ayung River rafting is one of the outdoor adventures visitors can enjoy near Ubud. During the trip, you travel along the river in an inflatable raft with a rafting guide.

The river route offers views of tropical vegetation, rocky riverbanks, small waterfalls, and the surrounding natural landscape. Some sections have flowing rapids, while other sections allow you to enjoy the scenery along the river.

One interesting feature of the Ayung River area is its carved stone walls. These carvings add a distinctive visual detail to the river scenery and make the rafting experience different from simply visiting a waterfall or viewpoint.

Before entering the river, the operator provides a safety briefing and explains how to use the equipment. Listen to your guide and follow the safety instructions during the trip.

3. Can You Combine ATV Riding and River Rafting?

Yes, ATV riding and Ayung River rafting can be combined into an adventure day, depending on the operators' schedules and availability.

The activities may take place at different locations, so it is important to allow enough time for travel, changing clothes, meals, and preparation between activities.

Before choosing a combined package, check what is included, the total duration, the pickup arrangements, and whether the two activities are booked with the same operator or separate providers.

You can also arrange private transportation with an English-speaking Bali driver if you prefer to travel between activity locations at your own pace.
