[2025 Bali Attraction] Travel Guide for Tibumana Waterfall (Updated Aug)

Some people come to Bali for beaches. I get it. But if you ask me, the real magic? It’s deep in the jungle—where the waterfalls hide. Not the crowded ones you see on Instagram every day. I’m talking about the quiet, secret spots. Places you have to earn with a bit of sweat and a good pair of shoes. Why the Hidden Ones? They’re peaceful. They’re raw. And they actually feel like nature. No loud tour groups. No lines for photos. Just you, the sound of water crashing, and green everywhere. My Favorite Hidden Waterfalls Here’s where I go when I need to breathe: Leke Leke – Short hike. Tight jungle trail. The waterfall drops like a ribbon from the cliffs. Simple, quiet, perfect. Nungnung – This one’s no joke. 500+ steep steps. Legs burn. But when you reach the bottom? Total reward. Huge fall. Mist everywhere. Tibumana – Chill vibes. Not far from Ubud. Easy walk. Great for a swim. Feels like a private jungle pool. Munduk area – You get a bunch of waterfalls close together. Cooler weather. Coffee farms nearby. Not many tourists make it up here. The Trek Part Don’t expect paved roads or clean staircases. This is real jungle. Mud, rocks, tree roots—sometimes all at once. Wear decent shoes. Bring water. Pack light. Leave the white sneakers at home unless you like them brown. Oh, and signal? Probably gone. But that’s the point, right? Best Time to Go Dry season’s safer. April to October. Trails are less slippery. But rainy season has its own vibe too—just wetter and wilder. Go early if you can. Morning light is nice, and you’ll probably have the place to yourself. Final Notes If you love nature and don’t mind getting dirty, this is it. This is the Bali that most people miss. Waterfalls hidden behind thick jungle. Treks that make your heart beat fast. Cold water waiting at the end. Bring a towel. Bring your sense of adventure. Leave the crowds behind.

Tibumana Waterfall is a beautiful and serene waterfall located in Bangli, Bali. Tibumana Waterfall offers a picturesque setting with lush greenery and a refreshing cascade of water. The waterfall itself is not as high or forceful as some of the other waterfalls in Bali, but it still provides a captivating sight. The water gently flows down the rocks, creating a soothing and peaceful ambiance. One of the highlights of Tibumana Waterfall is the swimming area at the base. The pool is relatively large and deep, allowing visitors to take a dip in the cool, clear water. Swimming in the pool beneath the waterfall is a delightful experience, especially on hot days when you can enjoy the refreshing mist created by the falling water. #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #awesomepic #summervacation #bali #wonderfulindonesia

Thought it is just a waterfall, there is nothing special? Then you are totally wrong! Coming to Tibumana waterfall actually will bring you to 2 spots because the way towards the waterfall has become insta-famous too! Scroll to pic 4-6 and you will see a road with palm trees all around. It gives you the best tropical and vacation vibes for sure and content creators have made it more famous since then. You could get some drone shots or portraits here before heading to the waterfall. You will love this spot! After that you could go get tickets and start trekking. It isn’t a hard and long one so relatively easy when I compare to other waterfalls in Bali - best for beginners who are not used to do outdoor activities or hiking. Tibumana is all about very straight falls of waterfall. Because of the rainy season, the water comes stronger and it also gets more muddy as you can see. But I still love it anyway🌴 📍Tibumana waterfall, Bali #bali #indonesia
