Tegenungan Waterfall

Tegenungan Waterfall attracts visitors with its easy accessibility and the variety of experiences it offers. Its popularity among tourists is due not only to its beauty and proximity to the southern resorts but also to the hidden, almost magical atmosphere that surrounds it.

The name “Hidden Waterfall” highlights its secluded location. Despite its popularity, the waterfall remains somewhat concealed by surrounding jungle and winding paths leading through rice fields. Even if you drive nearby, it’s easy to miss unless you already know about it.

Adding to the confusion is the neighboring Blangsinga Waterfall, located only 300 meters upstream. However, they are indeed separate waterfalls, and each deserves a visit for its own unique qualities.

What makes Tegenungan special:

• Sacred pools: At the foot of the waterfall stands a small temple with pools whose water is believed to be blessed by the gods. Balinese people perform ritual purifications here.

• Romantic details: You’ll find a bamboo bridge, the ruins of an unfinished hotel, miniature stone pyramids, and even a bamboo canoe reminiscent of Caribbean pirates. These elements create an enchanting ambiance and provide terrific photo opportunities.

• Natural features: The waterfall has a drop of about 20 meters. Its waters cascade into a natural pool that looks especially impressive during the rainy season. Though the water becomes murky at that time, the volume of the cascading flow is truly spectacular.

• Mystical shapes: Many visitors find that the shapes of the rocks and the lines of the waterfall spark the imagination. Some say you can spot the outline of a face or a human figure there.

Activities:

• Swimming in the pool at the base of the waterfall and exploring the small nearby cave is perfect for a hot day.

• Walking the jungle paths, surrounded by lush tropical greenery, offers a chance to soak in the tranquility and beauty of the local environment.

• Photography: Every corner here seems tailor-made for memorable snapshots.

Tegenungan Waterfall is an ideal option for exploring the nature of Bali. It is only 20-30 minutes drive from Ubud or the southern resorts. A visit is especially recommended in the morning to avoid the crowds of tourists.
