Back Lake Buyan Festival Lake Buyan Festival featuring various advantages of Buleleng Regency. The festival featured various cultural attractions and traditional sports, exhibits the potential of agriculture and fisheries, and environmental activities. Tamblingan and Buyan Lake are the location of these activities. The festival aims to introduce the twin lake Buyan and Tamblingan as a vital water resource for the surrounding area. Both lakes are part of the water catchment area. Tourism development here is done with environmentally friendly concepts for the sake of preserving nature and the environment. Back The Lakes and Water As A Natural Resource In Bali The four lake in Bali include lake Batur, lake Bratan and the twin lake Buyan and Tamblingan are the natural water resource and the ultimate origin to every springs and rivers in Bali. Water as a natural resource is a vital resource for human, animal and plant health. About 97% water on the Earth is salt water and only 3% is fresh water. Over two thirds of fresh water is frozen in glaciers, permanent snow, and polar ice caps. Water also exists in lakes and rivers, in the air water vapor, in the grounds oil moisture and in the aquifers. We may only notice water on the Earth's surface, but there is much more freshwater stored in the ground than in liquid form on the surface. Water in the ground continually recharges rivers through seepage and water from precipitation continually seeps into the ground to recharge aquifers. Freshwater. Surface water is water in a lake, river, or fresh water wetland. Lake is the biggest water resource of surface water about 87%. These surface water is naturally replenished by precipitation and naturally lost through discharge to the oceans, evaporation, transpiration and groundwater recharge. Although the only natural input to any surface water system is precipitation within its watershed, the total quantity of water in that system at any given time is also dependent on many other factors. The factors include storage capacity in lakes, the permeability of the soil beneath these storage bodies, the runoff characteristics of the land in the watershed, timing of the precipitation and local evaporation rates, wetlands and artificial reservoirs. This water resource, such as water falling from the skies and moving into streams, rivers, lakes, and groundwater, provide people with the water they need every day to live. Water Stress or Water Crisis. Water are used in various ways including direct consumption, agricultural irrigation, fisheries, hydropower, industrial production, recreation, navigation, environmental protection, the disposal and treatment of sewage, and industrial effluents. The concept of water stress is relatively simple. It applies to situations where there is not enough water for all user. This situation is related on several conditions such as population growth, expansion of business activity, rapid urbanization, climate change, depletion of aquifers, water pollution, and water conflict. Water Conservation. Water as a natural resource provide habitats for aquatic life and riparian systems provide moisture for vegetation and terrestrial biota, transporting nutrients between one ecosystem and another. As well, large water systems provide regional and climatic weather services. We cannot control our fresh water supply but we can control the quantity of water we use on a daily basis. Taking simple steps to restrict unnecessary water use and improve efficiency. Water conservation is cost-effective, the best ways to saving and benefit our environment. Clean water reduces the prevalence of water-related diseases. Less water going down the drain means more water available in the lakes, rivers and streams that wildlife uses to survive and we use for recreation. Using water more efficiently helps maintain supplies at safe levels, protecting human health and the environment. Feel the coolness atmosphere and exotic view of the twin lake, surrounded by rain forest, mountain and the rim of Bedugul Caldera.

One of the must-see attractions is the Twin Lakes’, the lakes of Buyan and Tamblingan which became separated in around 1800 as a massive landslide cleaved the original lake in half. Whether you’re just looking to get a photo at the viewpoint, want to check out the nearby Wanagiri swings or actually keen on trekking the area, we’ve got you covered with this guide to the Twin Lakes Bali. We’ve separated out this guide for those looking just for the viewpoint details, those trying to do a trekking or hiking tour around the lakes and also for people looking for other activities in the area. Read next The perfect one week Bali itinerary! History of the Twin LakesHow to get thereEntrance fee for the Twin LakeThe Twin Lakes Bali ViewpointHiking the Bali Twin LakesWhen to goWhere to stayFrequently Asked Questions History of the Twin Lakes Okay, geography lesson about to commence! Indonesia’s islands were created by volcanic activity. In many volcanic areas you’ll find that eruptions created calderas’ – large cauldron-like hollows that look like craters, which are formed when large volumes of magma leave the volcano’s chamber and the chamber collapse in on itself. The Twin Lakes of Lake Buyan and Lake Tamblingan form part of a caldera made by the Bedugul volcano. So, when you’re standing at the Twin Lake Viewpoint you’re actually standing at the rim of an extinct volcano! The twin lakes themselves used to be one lake before a huge landslide separated the two in the 1800s. How to get there Generally most people wanting to visit the Twin Lakes of Buyan Lake and Tamblingan Lake are spending a night or two in neighbouring village, Munduk and visit some of the other attractions we’ve listed at the bottom of this article. However, you can also include the lakes as part of a Bali island tour. In this case, they are handily located near four other main tourist landmarks Pura Ulun Danu Beratan temple, The Handara Gate, Wanagiri Hidden Hills the selfie park and the Munduk Waterfalls. We’d really recommend getting a private driver or a full day tour package for Central or North Bali– we’d recommend this one from Get your Guide for their impeccable service and customer support. If you’re coming from further afield, getting to the Twin Lake Bali will take about 45 minutes – 1 hour from Lovina, 2 hours from Canggu and 90 minutes from Ubud in case you need it, we’ve got the perfect 3 day Ubud itinerary for you. In terms of its location, it’s pretty hard to miss in the area. However, if you’re looking for details of the viewpoint itself, it’s marked on the map below. The viewpoint is actually on the same road as Wanagiri Hidden Hills and is called Bali Twin Lake Trekking Point’. Note If you’re travelling on a scooter or motorbike, be warned that Munduk is relatively hilly so you should feel very comfortable on a bike if taking this route! Entrance fee for the Twin Lake We’ve got a bit of good news for you. The Bedugal Twin Lakes is absolutely free! Whether you’re wanting to just visit the viewpoint or actually hike around the area, there is no fee to a nice change from the rest of Bali where every waterfall and activity has a guy in a booth awaiting your hard-earned Rupiah, that’s for sure! The Twin Lakes Bali Viewpoint First up, the viewpoint. To be honest, the Twin Lakes lookout is little more than a concrete platform – but, perhaps, that’s exactly what you’re looking for. Located just off the main road near Wanagiri Hidden Hills, the viewpoint is a raised concrete structure that gives you a fantastic view across the two lakes. And bonus you don’t even need to take more than 5 steps from parking your motorbike or car! The viewpoint is really just a photo spot but its an easy stop, so worth it. As above, you can find the specific viewpoint near Wanagiri Hills and marked as Trekking Point’ on the map. If you’re up for a bit of a hiking trip, you can of course walk around the lakes themselves. Either this can be done as a guided tour – either booked through your hotel in Munduk preferred if you are staying there, or through a local Twin Lake Bali tour operator like Bali Jungle Trekking – or you can self-guide it. It’s usually better to pay for a guide, since they’ll organise a dugout canoe which takes you to two hidden’ jungle temples – the Telaga Aye Temple and Dalem Temple. To get to these hidden gems is usually not possible without a guide. If you do decide to do it sans local guide, you’ll still see lush jungles, local birds and perhaps even some naughty macaque monkeys hanging in the trees. Looking for more to do in the Twin Lakes? You can rent a kayak or even go fishing near the lake. Talk to your hotel, driver or guide to organize this for you. When to go The best time of year to visit the Twin Lake and its nearby attractions is between June to August, when it’s not very hot and also not raining. We visited in October and while it was a bit warm, most of the walk is in the shade and so quite bearable. If you are going in the rainy season make sure to wear sturdy shoes the paths can get quite muddy and pack a rain jacket or poncho! Where to stay We’d highly suggest you spend a few nights staying in the area near the Twin Lake, in Munduk Bali. It’s one of the less touristy parts of Bali and full of fantastic things to do. It doesn’t have too many luxury options but is well worth a few nights, at one of these locations Luxury Top of the pile is the breath-taking Munduk Moding Plantation. The spectacular views from the pool, the well-appointed suites and the impeccable service make this the property of your dreams. Mid-range Lesong Hotel is the pick of the bunch. It’s not located right in the village, instead located in nearby ricefields but this means it has a serenity you won’t find in the centre which has quite a lot of barking dogs and morning roosters! Budget We’re big fans of Nadya Homestay, the highest rated budget accommodation in the area. Wonderful, helpful staff, a great on-site restaurant, killer views and a comfy bed. What more could you ask for? Frequently Asked Questions Do I need a local guide to visit the Twin Lakes? No. It’s cool to get a trekking guide but you can do it yourself. Insider tip is to download beforehand and download the offline area map, which is very helpful when navigating. Or, make like us, and just ask the locals you encounter, who are all very helpful! What should I pack for the Twin Lake Bali? We recommend a few key things if you’re doing the trekking Hiking sandals or shoes. You can get away with flip flops but it’s not advisable. Similarly, sneakers would work fine but might get soaked during your waterfall It’s hot in Bali and the sun is quite bag or camera cover. If you’re heading to the nearby waterfalls, you’ll want to get some of the cracking shots close-up, you’ll want to ensure you have a waterproof casing for your phone or camera, or that you can quickly dry it off and put it in your Keep hydrated on the hike. Can I buy food or drink at the Twin Lakes? There are a number of food and snack stalls along the main road, near the viewpoint.

Head to the Handara Gate. Essentially this is the entrance to a golf estate that became pretty renowned for photographs using a reflective surface or mirror’ as an optical illusion. Ulun Danu Beratan Temple This famous water temple near the Bali Botanical Gardens is an easy stop on an itinerary near the Twin Lakes. The Ulun Danu temple is great for photographs it is set out on the lake, and for walking around the grounds for an hour or so. Entrance is 10,000 IDR USD / GBP per person. Jatiluwih Rice TerracesOkay so maybe you’re already heading to Tegalang Rice Terraces near Ubud? Well you should still visit Jatiluwih as well! 600 hectares of rolling rice fields; it’s known as the king’ of rice terraces in Indonesia. The entrance fee is 40,000 IDR USD / GBP per person. Luwak Coffee Plantation Keen on tasting coffee that’s been digested through a civet’, a cat-like animal that loves to chew on coffee beans? Head to a coffee plantation in the area. Even if you’re not keen on the cat poop coffee’, you can do a normal coffee and tea tasting, including delicious variants like hibiscus tea, peanut coffee and even even a ginseng coffee that is absolutely dreamy! We loved the plantation tour since the whole experience was entirely free. They only ask for a tip for the waitress and if you decide to purchase a cup of cat poop coffee’, that usually sets you back around 50, 000 IDR. Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking Tour If you’re interested in volcanoes and trekking, you’re probably keen on the trekking near Mount Batur, the highest volcanic crater in Bali. Usually this involves a very early morning pick up so you can watch the sunrise – think 2am! It’s worth the money – you’ll trek for about 90 minutes to the summit and be blown away by the vistas below. One of the best tours for Mount Batur is this one – it usually gets sold out quickly, so book your tickets ahead. Lovina Beach Dolphin TourDisclaimer We didn’t do this one ourselves. We did head to Lovina Beach but we didn’t love the idea of chasing dolphins in the water. That said, many people make the dolphin watching at Lovina beach part of their North Bali tour itinerary. The Lovina Dolphin Tour price is usually 50 GBP / 65 USD if you include it with the nearby waterfalls and temples – check out this option here. What camera equipment and other gear do we use? We’re living proof that you don’t need the most expensive gear to travel the world and take good photos. Here are some of our must have items that make it into the packing list for all our travels.
