ACTIVITIES IN UBUD
Just go! There are many wonderful walks in every direction from Ubud,
through villages, rice terraces, jungle gorges, and grassy hilltops. Don't be afraid. Just strike out in any direction.
You can walk anywhere you like, without "trespassing." Don't be shy, just be courteous. The best of the Ubud area is off the roads, so grab a map, or just go rambling without one,
Often the best discoveries are purely coincidental and can't be found in any guidebook.

If you prefer to follow a good leader, day treks are offered by adventure guides like Sari Profit, Sobek, Ayung and Adventure Products.
Sari Profit's itineraries include the Bali Bird Walk, and if it's plants your after, call Pesona Ubud at 978643 to join a Ubud Adventure Walk, and learn about the many fragrant, edible and medicinal plants that surround you.
Pesona Ubud also leads walking tours in the Ubud area, focusing on historic Pejeng, and the hills and villages North of Campuan. Biking Bicycling is a great way to see the Ubud area, and to stay fit.
The early morning hours are best, when it's still cool. You can peddle sedately along backroads, or take a mountain bike and bash your way down precipitous gorges, along slippery rice terrace dikes, or through rough village byways pocked with craters. A truly glorious ride is to slog all the way up to Kintamani on the crater of Mount Batur then glide effortlessly back downhill to Ubud through a chain of traditional villages dotted with craft studios and cafes.
For the lazy, you can find a car and driver in the middle of Ubud, put your bikes in and just do the downhill bit. Rent a bike in Monkey Forest Road , grab a Bali map, then find a driver in front of the tourist information office at Pesona Ubud, and you're on your way.
Rental Bikes are available for 10.000 - 25,000 rupiah per day from many places in Monkey Forest Road and elsewhere. Once you're on your way, try hard to avoid the main roads because traffic is horrendous, except at the crack of dawn.
All of the back roads are negotiable by bicycle and are only steep where they cross a river gorge (east to west). Otherwise, they generally run uphill gently from south to north. We recommend you ride north first, until you've had enough, then coast back downhill, and eat ......
