Old – Activities
Our aim is to give you a beautifully unique and unforgettable experience… we have many activities in Sudaji included free of charge – you simply pay for your accommodation. There are no “hidden” extras. You will have full access and use of the Wantilan (meditation and healing area). Yoga and Cooking classes are by donation.
Activities included:
1. Waterfall adventure: (5 hours)
Your journey begins with a 4km trip through the village meeting the locals and observing a different pace of life. Depending on when we go there are opportunities to see and participate in different aspects of village life ranging from traditional ceremonies to traditional craftsmen in action. Once we reach the starting point of the waterfall there are 385 steps down to the river – from here we cross the river before a short trek directly to the base of the waterfall. You are free to meditate, swim or just enjoy the powere of nature. Actually there are 7 waterfalls that meet in this area… after about 30mins we will return back to the village of Sudaji via an alternative route that will reveal rice fields, farmers, trees, animals and an abundant plant life.
2. Rice Field trek: (3 hours)
The local rice in Sudaji is world famous and regarded by the Balinese as the highest quality of rice in Bali. After a brief walk (15mins) you will meet the local farmers who will explain the rice-cycle and its importance to the Balinese. Depending on the time of year you will either plant or harvest rice… we also offer the opportunity for the truly brave to get behind the reins of a cow and plough the muddy fields.
3. Local Traditional Market trip: (2 hours)
The local market comes alive at 3am but we will visit at approx. 5.30am… its an early start but worth it to feel and experience the atmosphere, see traditional crafts & craftsmen at work, purchase goods and products (really inexpensive). We will also select fresh vegetable, fruit and spices for our breakfast ! Upon our return you will participate in the preparation of breakfast and experience real Balinese cooking. This is the best way to experience Balinese life.
4. Visit to Local Public Baths: (2hours)
Approx. 15 mins walk from our Ashram is the local public baths. Experience bathing in a natural river and feel the energy of the water flowing through you. There are male and female “showering” facilities and a beautiful temple for meditation and prayer.
5. Local facilities:
Our Swimming Pool, Natural jacuzzi and Wantilan (healing / meditation / workshop area) are alway available to all our cutomers… simply relax, unwind and enjoy yourself.
We can also arrange any of the following for you if you would like to participate more fully in village life… basket making, woodcarving, blacksmith, visit by local healers, Balinese massage therapy, purification and offering making. “Simply let us know what you would like to do and we will make the arrangements”.
