The Experience

“You sure you’ve never done this before?” our guide Wayan grinned at me as I tried to wriggle my boots on, still half-awake from the early drive out of Ubud. The air in Silakarang Village was thick and green — you could smell wet leaves and something sweet, maybe incense from a nearby shrine. Helmets on, engines rumbling under us, we followed Wayan’s signal down a narrow path that looked more like a stream than a road. I honestly thought I’d tip over in the first five minutes (spoiler: I didn’t).

The track wound through rice fields where kids waved at us and ducks scattered — one even quacked so loud it made me laugh out loud. There was this moment when we hit a patch of mud and my wheels spun out; Wayan just shouted “Gas! Gas!” and somehow I made it through without eating dirt. The best part? Splashing through the river right before reaching the waterfall. It wasn’t huge or dramatic but felt cool against my arms, spray mixing with sweat. The sound of water echoing inside the Dragon Cave was strange — almost like being inside a drum. I tried to say “terima kasih” to one of the guides but probably butchered it; he just smiled anyway.

Lunch after was simple — fried rice, spicy sambal, cold water that tasted better than any fancy drink back home. We sat around swapping stories with another couple who’d come all the way from Germany for this Bali ATV ride. My shirt was streaked with mud and honestly, I didn’t care at all. There’s something about getting dirty on purpose that feels good — freeing, maybe? Anyway, if you’re looking for a day trip from Ubud that’s not just temples or yoga mats, this is it.

What’s included

Your day includes hotel pickup in Ubud or nearby areas, all safety equipment like helmets and boots (plus insurance), about 1.5 hours riding an ATV through jungle trails past rice fields and waterfalls with a friendly local guide alongside you, entry to the Dragon Cave trek, access to changing rooms and showers after (trust me — you’ll want them), mineral water throughout, and a simple local lunch before heading back.
