Tukad Cepung Waterfall, Bali, Indonesia


4.5 (320 reviews) Spent 2-3 hours Ranking #1 in Tembuku Waterfalls

Well worth seeing.

This unique waterfall tucked beneath Tembuku’s jungle caves is unlike any other in Bali. It's a 15-minute trek down some steep steps, but well worth the effort. While the waters at the base of the falls are too shallow to swim in, you can stand under the fine mist, as rays of light shine down from the cave opening above. This popular photo spot can get quite busy, so visit in the early morning for fewer crowds—though you'd want to catch the midday sun for the best light. The rocks can be slippery, so wear good shoes and avoid the monsoon season when the water levels get high. Visit this waterfall on a tour of Bali's waterfalls or photo spots, which often include a stop here. – Tripadvisor

    Nice but crowded
    We went sometime around the afternoon. When we get there it was cloudy but we decided to continue descending to the waterfall. Right after we arrived at the bottom it started to rain pretty heavily. We waited around 30 minutes until the rain started to subside before exploring the waterfall. There was a small waterfall to the right and the bigger one is to the left. Because it rained, the water level was pretty high and the waterfall looked quite dangerous due to the rushing water so we decided to call it a day, take a few pictures and left. We were the first one to arrive at the big waterfall after the rain subside and when we left the queue got longer pretty quickly. The waterfall was pretty nice but if i were to go back, I’ll probably go early in the morning to beat the crowds.

    Worth the effort!
    Wonderful Waterfall, but a little bit spoiled with tourism. We visited during Covid, and still had to line up for a photo. Despite that, this is a unique location and well worth the visit. My tip is to get there nice and early. The sun's rays shining though the falls early in the morning is the best time and you may even beat the crowd. Also, when you get to the bottom of the stairs there is a sign to the left for Tukad Cepung. To the right is another small waterfall that most people don't even bother about. If you go that way, walk 30 metres past it and you will find a small cave on the right with another small waterfall inside!
