Continue walking down a few steps you will be greeted by a viewpoint where you can see the waterfall from a distance.
When you get halfway there will be a sign saying Waterfall to the left and temple to the right. It doesn’t matter what path you choose as you can reach both places from both sides. But if you already know where you want to go, you’ll end up on the “right” side of the Petanu river depending on where you want to go. The stairs down are quite easy and walkable, so you don’t need any hiking shoes. Sandals are fine, but of course, if you aim to climb a bit off the beaten path to get unique views and photos, a good pair of shoes is always recommended.

Best time to visit Tegenungan Waterfall
Tegenungan Waterfall best time to visit is in early morning around 9.00 am or late afternoon around 04.00 pm to avoid the crowd, heat from the sun and for the good picture the golden hours is at 7.00 am. When you arrive at the Tegenungan Waterfall, you will see a changing booth to the left and a waterfall straight ahead. If you want to go upstairs to the cliff, you’ll have to pass the wooden bridge. Otherwise, just enjoy the waterfall and head upstairs later. If you want to avoid crowds as we did, I suggest that you as early as possible since the Tegenungan Waterfall is a popular tourist attraction in Bali, especially for those who stay in Ubud, as it’s the closest waterfall to Ubud, just 20 minutes by motorbike.
Because we like to take several photos and try different angles it takes some time before we’re done photographing, so it was a pleasant surprise that we got the Tegenungan waterfall to ourselves that long! I would avoid going there later than 12 if you don’t go later at sunrise, but I suggest going early and combining it with some other waterfalls near Ubud.

Located in the village of Kemenuh, Sukawati – Gianyar. Here below are driving directions and more info on how to get to Tegenungan waterfall from Ubud, Seminyak/Kuta, and Canggu. The best way to get there is probably by renting your motorbike or hiring a driver. A taxi will be quite expensive and you would have to pay a fee to the driver for waiting as well.
It’s fairly easy to drive a scooter in Bali, so if you have some experience it shouldn’t be a problem. But again, if you’re not comfortable with driving a motorbike, just grab a taxi or hire a private driver for the day and explore some other places nearby as well, such as the waterfalls of Kanto Lampo and Dusun Kuning.

Is it safe to swim in Tegenungan Waterfall?
If you’re a good swimmer you should be fine, but the waterfall is quite powerful and there are again signs and even red buoys in the water.
You can walk into the water a short distance before it gets deeper. So if you want to take a picture of you standing in the water in front of the Tegenungan Waterfall, that’s doable and safe.
Do you need to walk down the stairs to see the waterfall?
Well, you could just walk a few steps and see it from a distance and take a photo. But you will still have to pay the entrance fee. And to be honest, it’s not that hard to walk down and its much more amazing to see close-up.
Can you jump from the cliff?
I wouldn’t recommend this. The water is not deep enough from that height and you will most likely injure yourself. There are several signs saying that you shouldn’t jump from the cliff, and Indonesia is not well-known for advertising danger and put up signs everywhere.
So, I would urge you to take this seriously as it really is dangerous.
Do you need hiking experience?
Well, not really. Just about any person with an average health should be able to climb down and up the stairs. If you want to visit the temple or second level of the Tegenungan waterfall, you won’t need any hiking experience either.
Is there a changing room?
Yes to the left when you arrive at the Tegenungan Waterfall, you will see a small changing room.
