Are you coming to Bali for swings, bird nests and day clubs overlooking rice terraces? Then Alas Harum Bali is the place to be. I have to admit, this kind of attraction isn’t really our thing. Still, we decided to check out this popular spot. There’s so much to do here that it has a bit of an amusement park vibe. But its location among the Tegallalang rice terraces, combined with the available facilities, makes it a unique experience. Let me tell you more about Alas Harum Bali!
where is alas harum bali
Alas Harum Bali is located in the idyllic, hilly area of Tegallalang. It’s just a 20-minute drive from the center of Ubud. The rice terraces of Tegallalang are considered some of the most beautiful rice terraces in Bali, so you can enjoy multiple highlights in one place.
What can you do at Alas Harum Bali?
Alas Harum Bali is all about Instagrammable spots. Think of various swings, sky bikes (for one or two people), swing beds, bird nests and ziplines. You’ll also find a large glass platform with stunning views of the rice terraces and a “dancing” bridge. There are so many fun little photo spots scattered throughout the area. Because the grounds are quite spacious, you often won’t be bothered by crowds. You can take your time and enjoy capturing great photos in peace!
In addition to these unique attractions, you’ll also find some impressive sculptures, such as the Gorilla Cave, the Topeng Cave, Pekak Brayut and a statue of Soekarno, the founder of Indonesia, made entirely from woven bamboo.
Alas Harum Day Club
Guests aged 18 and over are welcome at the Day Club. Here, you can rent various spots with a minimum spending requirement. Think of a spot on one of the large hammocks, a seat by the pool, a lounge bed, or a cabana on one of the terraces. Minimum spending for such a spot starts at 3,000,000 IDR.
Food at Alas Harum Bali
There are several places to eat if you’re spending some time at Alas Harum. The most upscale spot for a bite is Cretya Ubud, located in the same building as the Day Club. Cretya Ubud spans three levels and offers a range of restaurants: Yudistira on the first floor, Arjuna on the second and Bima on the third. At Cretya Lite, you can order traditional Indonesian dishes. In the mood for sandwiches, pastries, croissants, smoothies, or coffee? Then Srikandi is the place to be. All these spots offer beautiful views over the rice terraces.
True coffee lovers can also join a special coffee tour, where you’ll learn all about the famous Kopi Luwak (civet coffee) and even get the chance to taste it.
Entrance and best time to visit Alas Harum Bali
You don’t need a reservation to visit Alas Harum itself; tickets can be purchased at the entrance. To avoid a possible line at the ticket counter, you can also buy tickets online in advance. Just like at many other places, it’s much quieter early in the morning or later in the day. However, Alas Harum is quite spacious, so even during busy times, visitors can spread out comfortably.
Want to be sure you get a spot at the Day Club or in one of the restaurants? Then it’s a good idea to make a reservation in advance. For more information, visit the official website of Alas Harum Bali.
