Destination Information:
The Jatiluwih Mountain Biking Tour is an excellent cycling tour located in the mid north of Bali where as well as the expected luscious tropical countryside there are some of the most impressive rice paddies on the island. In the Ubud area it is these very scenes that have inspired the famous art communities and the early travelers to this area. The rice paddies are located on interestingly shaped hills that are extremely sculpted and curvy. This means that the rice paddies have created memorizing patterns and shapes that are dynamic around the hills and the Jatiluwih area. The day begins in the morning when you will be picked up from your hotel by a representative with an air conditioned and comfortable vehicle. From here you will enjoy the first part of the morning driving out of the built up south of the island and into the real Bali where the land is beautiful and the culture is strong. When you reach Jatiluwih you will get a morning coffee or other refreshment of choice from the Jatiluwih café and then the safety briefing and introduction to the equipment will be carried out. You will be issued with a helmet as well as cycling gloves and the maintained and well checked bikes.

The area of Jatiluwih is not so well known and there are not that many people who come out and witness this area of the island. As part of the eco-tourism project that is growing in Bali this is not only an environmentally friendly activity and tour method but it is also a way of introducing a little money to the local businesses without destroying that area or the culture. After your warm up you will begin you journey which is a route planned to be accessible to all people with a basic cycling proficiency and it is adaptable for different abilities and ages such as easier routes and more challenging routes that essentially pass the same landmarks. You will glide through tropical woodlands, rice paddy terraces, pass traditional villages and see cultural buildings such as temples.

The Jatiluwih Mountain Biking Tour finishes at the Yeh Panas hot water where you can have some food and enjoy bathing in the natural springs which is an excellent way to finish your tour. You can get massage and a variety of other services in order to turn this into a spa like treatment before you receive your transport back to the hotel. You need to bring some strong shoes as cycling in flip flops or thongs, are not recommended practice, also some sunscreen and a hat. If you wish to purchase souvenirs such as photos or other things then bring a little money. Insurance for up to US$51,000 is included in the package price for The Jatiluwih Mountain Biking Tour and all other tours offered by the company as well as buffet lunch and all assistance and admission prices.
