Aling-Aling Waterfall

Aling-Aling Waterfall is a magnificent 35-meter-high cascade located within the lush river valley of Sambangan village, often celebrated as North Bali's "Secret Garden." Revered as a sacred site by local Balinese communities, the thunderous main waterfall plunges over a vertical jungle precipice into a deep, turquoise river basin where swimming is prohibited out of spiritual respect. However, guided adventure trails along the same river gorge include neighboring cascades—Kroya, Kembar, and Pucuk—where visitors can experience exhilarating cliff jumps ranging from 5 to 15 meters. Kroya Waterfall also features an exhilarating natural rock water slide where visitors can glide down a smooth water chute directly into a refreshing freshwater pool.
