Campuhan Ridge Walk

We spent our last day in Ubud by walking to Campuhan Ridge Walk. There is no entry ticket. The place was easy to walk and there some temples but only for prayer. People walking, running, and take their dogs too. In the end of destination, there are a lot of rice fields caffe, art stores, and locals village. However, it’s a quiet place. We didn’t explore more to the village since it would be so far to go back. It’s a definitely worth to try when visit Ubud.

A peaceful walk through Ubud’s heart. The Campuhan Ridge Walk is pure magic — especially early in the morning when the air is cool and the light touches the rice fields with gold. It’s an easy, scenic trail surrounded by lush hills, birdsong, and a calm that feels timeless. You’ll pass small temples, locals on morning walks, and cafés tucked along the path — perfect for a juice or coconut after your walk. The views are simply breathtaking, especially if you pause often and let nature quiet your mind. 🌾 ✨ Shared on my journey of mindful travel, yoga & healing at @AlwaysInYogaFlow

Love this hike/walk, especially in the morning. Fairly moderate, few steep up hills or drops but very manageable. It has some beautiful views over the rice fields, also some shops and café as you go through the 1st part of it. Highly recommended for a peaceful walk.

Calm and peaceful. Ridge walk experience was quite relaxing. It's very less crowded. Most of the way we were alone . We can take a walk /trek by having a nice view. Nothing amazing there. Still we can have some relaxing calm time. It's very less crowded less noisy place. The view and atmosphere is also good . If you want to relax and have a good walk by seeing the nature, this is a good option in Bali. We suggest to wear shoes since some of the way is quite hard and difficult to walk and slippery One of the underrated location in Bali.

Beautiful walk. Lots of up and down and stairs. If someone has trouble walking won't be too good for them. It is very hot as well. This Campuhan Ridge Walk can be a leisurely hike and takes around 30 to 45 minutes each way. Ofcourse depending on your pace and how often you stop for photos. I didn't go too far as it was very hot and humid but the entire round trip can be completed in about 1.5 hours. I also recommend wearing comfortable sneakers or walking shoes because the path is uneven in some places. If you plan to explore the nearby villages or stop at one of the cafés along the way, you might want to allow a bit more time. I stopped at a beautiful temple to visit just before starting the trail, so I would probably dedicate half a day to this visit. Lush greenery everywhere. It's free to enter the place.

I was interested in visiting Campuhan Ridge Walk because many of my friends recommended it. As someone who loves hiking and walking, the Campuhan Ridge Walk was definitely something I didn’t want to miss during my stay in Ubud. I started my walk at 7 AM, and I think it was the perfect time. The trail is about 2 km long with beautiful scenery along the way. It wasn’t crowded in the morning, though I still passed a few people walking or jogging. Some brought their kids, and I also saw several people walking with their dogs. I loved walking slowly along the neatly paved path. It took me around one hour to reach Pura Gunung Lebah. There are no restaurants or convenience stores along the trail, so it’s important to bring your own water. There are also no public toilets along the way, but once you reach the village area, you’ll find restaurants and small shops. In the village, you can also see art galleries, villas, and more places to explore. Historically, the Campuhan Ridge was originally a meditation path used by the priest who built Pura Gunung Lebah. With time, the temple and the trail became an important spiritual center in the Ubud area. As the local community grew, the surroundings developed into residential areas. And with the growth of tourism in Ubud, the ridge walk eventually became one of the must-visit spots. Even so, I can still feel the spiritual atmosphere when walking slowly along the trail—enjoying the beautiful scenery, the fresh air, and the calm environment.

Nice place to walk not far from the city. You have a good walking trail, but most of it expose to the sun. You can't go of the walking way to gind you a nice quit place in the wood. On start from south you can reach the river. On the north point you have some galeres and coffee shoe. If you need to get by walk to your entry point, start from south because there is a hilll to go, and it will be nicer to go down after you finish you walking.

Amazing trek but the walk is not suitable for children and prams. The hills are steep and the steps are crooked and easy to trip over. I saw a local trip and fall on my visit here. Be careful, wear good shoes. I would recommend not going on a hot day as there aren’t any air conditioned areas at the end point.
