Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the Campuhan Ridge Walk for its serene beauty and accessibility, calling it a peaceful escape with stunning green vistas. While generally easy, some note inclines and steps. The best times to visit are early morning or late afternoon to avoid heat and crowds.
"We went on this walk at 6.30am to avoid the heat and crowds. It was overcast and cooler than normal. Depending on on fitness level this is a easy walk. However, be aware that there are steps and incline sections which could challenge some people. Great views and a village at the end where you could catch a taxi, if you didn’t want to turn around and walk back. We also stopp d at a lovely resort at the end of the walk for breakfast."

"It is perfect for a leisurely walk, at the beginning you can visit a temple, but it is not always open. There are cafes and souvenir shops along the way. If you walk the entire route in normal temperatures it takes a little more than an hour"
Anton K
"A nice hike into the countryside. After finishing the hike you come into a beautiful village where there is plenty to see and do. Grab a coffee and discuss life with the Balinese who are warm and knowledgeable, so down to earth! Really enjoyed this hike!"
