On the main road watch out for the large signboard that directs you to the road to Banyumala waterfall parking area.
A 3 kms drive on this extremely bumpy road will take you to the car parking area. A word of caution – if you are an inexperienced driver, it’s recommended to avoid self driving on this road.

Walk towards Banyumala Waterfall

 
Surrounded by lush greenery, the pathway leading to the foot of the waterfall is rocky, uneven jungle trail with lots of steep steps, puddles, running streams and little trickle waterfalls on the way. Waking on this path might be challenging for some. However, it’s fun and adventurous. Just make sure not to rush. Watch your steps and be careful since the steps can be slippery at some places – especially during rains.

The Banyumala Waterfall

 

Banyumala is also known as the Twin Waterfall because of the two parallel waterfalls. However, there is water literally falling from everywhere.

The natural pool where the twin waterfalls meet will lure you to take a dip. The round pool is measured to have a depth of up to 2 meters. The water is clean and clear and is safe for swimming. Even if you don’t wish to swim, you can still enjoy the sights of the waterfall by sitting on one of the boulders.

Things to Keep in Mind  

1) There are no lockers or changing rooms at the foot of the falls. If you plan to swim, it’s recommended to put on your bathing suits before reaching.
2) If you are not an experienced driver, then we don’t recommend you self- driving a car or scooter on the road down to the car parking area, since its really challenging.  However, if you wish to drive make sure to put on your helmets and drive very slow and carefully.
3) The road conditions are said to improve in the coming years. Until then, be careful. 
4)  The hike down to the falls isn’t easy, so wear comfortable footwear that 
offers a nice sole grip.
5) You can visit Banyumala Waterfalls, Baratan Temple & Jatiluwih rice terraces on the same day. Stay tuned for Bali travel guide where we will help you plan out your ideal Bali travel itinerary. 
Last but not the least, enjoy the waterfall and the rich greenery that surrounds it. A must visit place for nature and adventure lovers.
