Tripgrams offers two of the best rivers in Bali for rafting, each with its own unique character. The Ayung River, located in Ubud, features Class II–III rapids with a distance of approximately 12 km and a duration of around 2 hours. This river is ideal for beginners and families, offering stunning views of tropical forests, waterfalls, and unique stone carvings along the river walls.
