Bedugul

naturerelaxation
Recommended stay: 1 day
Getting around: Driver or scooter — a highland lake town, cool climate, sights spread around the shoreline.
Hours: The Botanical Garden and Ulun Danu Beratan Temple both have standard daytime hours (roughly 8am-6pm); the mountain climate here is genuinely cool, so plan for cooler weather than the coast.

Bedugul is a cool mountain escape centered on the Bratan caldera. Come for the iconic Ulun Danu Beratan Temple floating on the lake, strawberry farms, botanical gardens, and waterfall walks. The air is fresh, and it's a welcome break from the humid coast. Most travelers visit as a day trip or stay 1–2 nights.
