Bali Bike Park — Attraction in Bali

If you can get five of your mates together, and you can get all six of your bikes up there, there are few better ways to spend a Sunday than throwing yourself down one of the many runs at Bali Bike Park. As a downhill MTB Park, this place is about as good as it gets in Bali. Situated up in the cooler climate of Bedugul right jext to the crater lake, the choice of seven runs will test even the most jaded rider. Some are perfectly beginner friendly (Hipster) while some are absolute white-knuckle thrill rides that will test your skills. One thing is guaranteed: you won't regret the early start! Made for fun and male bonding, this adrenaline fuelled day out is easily my favourite thing to do in an island of choice when it comes to adventurous activities. The guys at the park are enthusiastic and encouraging, and they regularly service the runs, ensuring the berms are well-packed and the roots exposed! Heavy rain sometimes washes away soil to expose their sandbag foundations, but we're in the Tropics, guys. Be sure to bring your protective gear, and a small first aid kit for the inevitable grazes and get set for an active day. We averaged around seven runs before the intense adrenaline and constant endorphins generated appetites and forced us to leave. This for IDR 500/rider, and its hard to imagine better value. (Similar experiences in N.America or Europe would be double that.) Make a day of it and consider riding with a local guide through the forest down to Sangeh, or just soak up the cooler climate and eat at one of the excellent lakeside restaurants. Either way, it's a day out you won't...

Awesome place! There's tons of variety... berms, jumps, stepups, stepdowns, hips, and technical lines. I was so stoked I had to come back (all the way from BC, Canada) just 4 months later. On my second visit there was a new big jump line for advanced and pro riders, a new trail, and an impressive amount of trail maintenance and small additions done to the existing lines.

Riding in the jungle is super unique experience. You're surrounded in big tropical trees and crazy dirt. It's dusty and deep during the dry season, and tacky and smooth in the wet season. The dust is thick so you sink in deep and still get a bit of traction at high speed, when in Bali you can surf dirt not just waves! And when it has moisture it's amazing how well you can hook up in the corners. Riding on a tropical island is very awesome. It's really impressive to see a bike park this developed in Southeast Asia, the crew here are killing it! If you don't have a bike with you in Bali, the Chillhouse provides a nice selection of bikes and scheduled shuttles to the park.

I can't wait to watch this place keep growing and become one of the sickest destinations around....

The man who operates the office here, not sure if he is the owner or not, is extremely rude. My husband and I mountain bike at downhill parks all over the world and enduro race. He is a pro-line mountain biker. The man said he didn’t want our business because we looked confused. The confused look on our faces was due to finding out the price. It is 600.000 a piece for a 1km trail, on top of 450.000 each for a bike rental. That’s 1.050.000 each. The trail lasts around 5 minutes he said. And because I am a woman, he said he didn’t want my business because I would end up getting stuck halfway down and that I would be an inconvenience to him. What the actual? He also said that he OWNS the mountain that the trails are located upon. I’m sorry, you don’t own the mountain... he acted very arrogant, like his sh*t was made of diamonds or something, saying he’s too busy to talk to us, he has other clients. So basically if you’re a dude and a pro mountain biker with an abundance of $ to waste, Bali Bike Park is the place to be. Extremely glad to take our money and...
