If you believe that Bali is all about beaches, surfing, snorkelling, scuba and relaxing under the sun, meditation and spirit uplift reaching higher spirituality… then think again. The island has up north some areas with mountains full of lush jungle and amazing canyons that offer unforgettable, exotic canyoning.
International, experienced canyoners and ICOpro professional guides have secured many canyons in Bali, so it is advised to contact local operators should you want to descend some of the one-of-a-kind canyons of the district. Upfront planning with your most favorable local canyoning guide is essential, so you can ensure the best equipment, logistics, transports and food. One important factor that you should have in mind is that there are no professional rescue groups on the island and the canyons are rather remote. So, extra caution and proactive attitude are suggested to give you the best experience in Bali.

Before getting out there in the amazing, exotic canyons of Indonesia and Bali it is advised to become an experienced canyoner by attending courses on canyoning in your homeland and a number of various descents so your canyoning level is more advanced than a beginner’s. An experienced canyoner is able to judge better the quality of the equipment provided, the weather forecast and hydraulics in a canyon. Due to sudden rainfalls waterflow can rise, so be careful.
