Gitgit Waterfall

nature
Getting around: A short drive south of Lovina (about 15-20 minutes), easily combined with Brahmavihara-Arama on a north-Bali day trip; reached by car to a parking area, then a short walk through jungle to the falls.
Hours: Open daily roughly 8am-5pm with a small entrance fee; flow is strongest in and just after the wet season (roughly November-March).

Gitgit is one of north Bali's better-known waterfalls, a roughly 35-meter single-drop cascade reached by a short, easy walk through jungle from the roadside parking area. It's less dramatic than some of Bali's harder-to-reach falls, but the accessibility is exactly the point — a straightforward stop for travelers exploring the Lovina area who don't want a strenuous trek.

A swimming pool forms at the base, and vendors along the path sell drinks and snacks, giving the whole approach a more built-up, tourist-facility feel than the more remote waterfalls further east on the island.
