Gembleng Waterfall

This waterfall is AMAZING! There is plenty of moto parking and a donation stand to enter. You have to climb many steps, but the views are worth it. There are various levels and small pools you can get in and great spots for photos. The restaurant at the top has an amazing view and toilets. There is a “shower” - water from the fall by the parking lot. Highly recommend it!

I went to visit Gembleng Waterfall as my last stop on my private tour in East Bali before settling in Sidemen. There were many parked vans, cars and motorbikes when I arrived so it made me think that the queue to take a picture in the "waterfall pool" would be massive, but to my surprise, there were only 2 couples before us. There were quite a few stairs to walk up/down but not as much as some other waterfalls I've already visited. There were changing rooms near the carpark as well as up near the restaurant (higher/further up the stairs past the "pool"). The water was refreshing and clean. Saw a few frogs around too :) Entry was by donation and I paid 20k.

I liked it. It's easy to reach, following Google Maps. The streets partly a little rough. Drive carefully. It wasn't too crowded on a Friday early afternoon. The way up is OK. Not too many stairs. Maybe 100+/-. Lay in in one of the pools or enjoy the great view in the restaurant on top. For entry, as many here wrote, donate between 20-50K. It's worth.

Decent waterfall with multiple levels to get into the water. When we went in late Aug the water flow wasnt strong as rainy season was yet to kick in full force. I am sure the water flow will pick up rapidly in late September and October. The cafe on the top is decent. Good to have a nice beer or light snack after the climb or a dip in water :)

Very beautiful waterfall. It looks even better in person than in photos. But be careful during the rainy season — we were at the top when it started raining heavily, causing the access path to flood, and we couldn’t get out for hours. The locals were extremely kind and helped us cross the river (panic!) and even get the motorbike across.

Beautiful waterfall. We got there around 7:30 and were one of the only ones there. More people were arriving as we left. Nice viewpoint and warung at the top. The best pool for swimming is at the top while the middle two pools are more for instagramming.

The stairs are quite high (typical Balinese steps), but totally worth it – the views are stunning! At the entrance you give a small donation, and there’s also a little restaurant with local prices, cheap and really good food. Definitely recommend coming here!

Amazing place to visit. Peaceful, well structured. Sometimes it can be a bit of a wait if you want to get pics. Make a good donation as this helps to maintain everything around the area. I arrived in the rain and by the time I got to the top of the falls it had stopped. Lovely restaurant for refreshments at the top, the toilet is a 'bush toilet' but that's ok, it's nature! Lots of steps to the top, good though burner for those who don't train 😁
