Canggu to the Mountains
Our bike ride commences right outside the coastal town of Canggu, and takes a Northern course into the Tabanan province. This region of Bali is an awe-inspiring sight, yet rarely explored by tourists. We'll ride through picturesque local villages, rice paddy fields, and breathtaking mountain scenery. The initial part of the journey spans 45km, primarily uphill, though with a gentle gradient. Our lunch stop will be at the UNESCO-listed rice paddy field terraces of Jaliluwih, located at an altitude of 700m.
Following lunch, we'll head back South for another 45km towards Canggu, where the tour concludes. Typically, the tour concludes around 3-4pm, contingent on our cycling pace and the number of breaks we take.
