Customized Half Day Trail

Astungkara Way Half-Day Trail: A Journey Through Culture, Nature & Ritual
For those seeking a meaningful connection with Bali but with limited time, our Half-Day Trail offers an immersive experience into the island’s cultural, culinary, and spiritual heart.
 
Starting beneath the ancient Bayan Tree, we walk through a lush landscape towards Rumah Desa, where you’ll step into the rhythm of Balinese life. Explore the intricate architecture of a Balinese compound, learn about its deep-rooted spirituality, and wander through vibrant gardens teeming with medicinal plants.
 
In the cooking class, you’ll uncover the secrets of Balinese traditional cuisine, using locally sourced spices and roots known for their healing properties. Then, savor a delicious Balinese lunch, prepared with intention and care.
 
Afterward, we travel to a sacred site for a Melukat water purification ceremony—a deeply symbolic ritual guided by a local priest, meant to cleanse the body and mind. The experience closes with a moment of reflection before we return you to your next destination, carrying with you a piece of Bali’s wisdom.
 
This half-day journey is a perfect alternative to our multi-day trails, offering a condensed yet powerful experience of Bali’s landscapes, traditions, and rituals. Step off the beaten path and walk with us—if only for a few hours—on a path of reconnection.
