Camping in the Bedugul Area

I named this section camping in Bedugul, but just to be clear one camp site is in Bedugul and the other is just next door in Munduk.  From here on I will refer to the area as Bedugul just because it is often the name this area goes by.

There are may reasons you might want to camp in Bedugul.  First, the area is spectacularly beautiful.  Situated in Bali’s uplands at about 1500 meters, Bedugul and the surrounding area are generally cool and moist.  This makes for a super green landscape and also accounts for it being Bali’s breadbasket, growing much of it’s produce.  Within this area there are three tranquil lakes, two of which host our featured camping sites.

Aside from the scenery here are some other excellent reason for camping in Bedugul.  Remember that by camping in the area you get to arrive at these popular spots first and avoid the crowds that show up later in the day.

Things to do while camping in Bedugul:

Visit Ulun Danu Beratan Temple  –  This is one of the most famous and iconic temples in all of Bali.  Definitely worth a visit if in the area.

Waterfalls, waterfalls, waterfalls!  – This area has Bali’s most incredible waterfalls.  Visitors can find waterfalls to hike to, waterfalls to drive to, waterfalls to slide down, waterfalls to get that perfect Instagram shot.  We at Bali Campers have done our research and found the best guides for waterfall tours in this area.  They will be professional, English speaking, and full of warmth, knowledge, and hospitality.  Let us know if you are interested in booking a waterfall tour and we will help you make all the arrangements..

Explore Bali Botanical Garden – Showcasing many plants from Indonesia, this place is well worth a visit.  Very beautiful and well maintained botanical garden.  On weekends you can drive into the park.

Campgrounds in the Bedugul Area

Let me start by saying there are a lot of campgrounds in Bedugul.  Camping here is popular with Indonesians and thus many large campgrounds have sprung up.  We believe the two we have chosen offer the best experience for our guests.

Tamblingan Lake Camp

This spectacular campground is located on Tamblingan lake.  Also on this lake is the magnificent Tamblingan temple which gives this location an extra special feeling.  Tamblingan is a no frills campsite.  You drive in, pay a small fee, possibly arrange to have firewood delivered to your spot, then drive in and park where you want.  The area has amazing views and a bit of hiking around the lake.  There are also some restaurants and shops up on the ridge road leading to the lake.

This is one of our favorite campsites in Bali.

Glamour Camping

Glamour Camping is on the same lake (and same road) as camp Catur.  It’s a cute little setup right on the lake.  They have a small glamping business with some tents there and a very basic warung.  The place to park the van is right next to a nice little sitting area on the lake’s edge.

Amenities

• Bathroom and hot water shower
• Running water can refill the campervan
• Firewood (It’s 30,000 but good quality and they will help you make a fire)
• A small shop selling basic packaged snacks and water (cookies, chips, etc)

Cost to stay: 80k per van plus 20k per person

Lemukih Campground

This is a really nice little place with spectacular views.  It is set high up in a valley looking out to the ocean north of Bali.  One cool thing about this place is that it is set very nearby a number of waterfalls and the staff offers waterfall tours.  If you are interested in waterfalls this is the way to do it.
