About Ubud for Solo Travelers

Bali's cultural soul in the forested hills β€” solo travelers take dawn yoga classes, walk rice terrace ridges, and find Ubud a place where the spiritual, creative, and culinary all converge in one extraordinarily beautiful valley.

Solo Travel TipsΒ· Solo Friendly

Ubud is Bali's spiritual and cultural heart and extremely solo-friendly β€” yoga classes, cooking classes, and the morning Campuhan Ridge Walk are all natural solo activities that group people together. The Monkey Forest is chaotic and fun solo. The rice terrace walks around Tegalalang and Jatiluwih are best done solo by scooter at your own pace. The evening Kecak fire dance at Uluwatu is one of Southeast Asia's most extraordinary solo cultural experiences.

Campuhan Ridge Walk Ubud

Nature

Free

Ubud's most beautiful free walk - a 2km ridge trail beginning at the Gunung Lebah Temple and winding through rice paddies, coconut groves, and jungle above the confluence of two rivers. Best walked at sunrise before the heat builds; the views of the surrounding volcanic mountains on clear mornings are spectacular.

Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary Ubud

Nature

$$

A Hindu temple complex in a forest inhabited by over 700 long-tailed Balinese macaques who interact fearlessly with visitors. Three ancient temples, a cool forest trail, and the occasional monkey-on-head encounter make the Monkey Forest Ubud's most visited attraction and genuinely memorable.

Tegallalang Rice Terraces Ubud

The most famous rice terraces in Bali - dramatic green staircase paddies carved into the hillside using the traditional subak irrigation system, a UNESCO-recognized cultural landscape. Arrive before 8am to photograph the terraces in mist with almost no other visitors; the light at dawn is extraordinary.
