Yep, this magical island isn&#8217;t only famous for its\u00a0beach clubs and sunset bars &#8211; Bali has so much more to offer when it comes to tropical jungle horizons, towering volcanic mountaintops, and of course, breathtaking sacred lakes. And one of the must-visit areas in Bali for exactly that is high up in the hills of north and central Bali, away from the frenetic buzz of the south. It\u2019s where you can soak up the fresh air with chirping birds all around, feast your eyes on hectares of untouched landscapes, and visit one of Bali&#8217;s four awe-inspiring sacred lakes.<\/p>\n<p>An adventure to the island&#8217;s northern sanctuaries would not be complete without visiting at least one of the four lakes in Bali: lake (AKA <em>danau<\/em>) Batur, lake Beratan, and the twin lakes Buyan and Tamblingan. Not only are they breathtakingly gorgeous, these lakes are also rich in culture and offer awesome activities the whole family can enjoy, like camping and kayaking. Bring a jacket (it&#8217;s cooler in the mountains!) and don&#8217;t forget your camera&#8230; Bali lake trip, here we come!<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\">4 SACRED LAKES IN BALI<br \/>\nBeautiful cultural attractions for your travel itinerary<\/h2>\n<h3>1.

This lake is in fact a caldera, formed between the feet of Mount Batur and Mount Abang. But if you ask the local villagers, they may tell you that once upon a time the lake was dug up by a giant named Kebo Iwo who lived in the area! With a size of approximately 16 kilometres square, Lake Batur is the largest lake in Bali, surrounded by stunning hills and traditional villages. There are wooden canoes which you can rent to go fishing in the middle of the lake, or campsites for those wanting to spend the night. Lake Batur is located high up over 1,000 metres above sea level, so be sure to cover up or warm up at the nearby Toya Bungkah natural hot springs. If you fancy learning about Balinese culture, a boat trip to <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/bali\/trunyan-village-skull-island-bali\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trunyan Village<\/a> is a must \u2013 home to the native Bali Aga tribesmen with a unique tradition of laying out corpses underneath a sacred tree, Taru Menyan, which is believed to mask any &#8216;unwanted scents&#8217;. Fun fact: Lake Batur\u2019s natural beauty and richness in culture has landed it a spot on UNESCO\u2019s list of Global Geoparks.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/Danau+Batur\/@-8.2549977,115.4023926,14z\/data=!3m1!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x2dd1f680e7f40cad:0x605760d5a99c0414!8m2!3d-8.258816!4d115.408195!16s%2Fg%2F11gf62v955?entry=ttu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Lake Batur on Google Maps<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>2.

This serene caldera with a backdrop of Mount Beratan is considered the holiest lake in Bali due to its main attraction: the famous Hindu temple, Pura Ulun Danu Beratan. This floating temple houses two historical artefacts dating back to 500BC, and is topped off with three multi-level roofs, each symbolising a Hindu God (Visnu, Brahma and Shiva). The lake is also an irrigation source for the surrounding rice paddies and farms (did someone say strawberry-picking?). If you love the water and you\u2019re brave enough to take a dip in the lake, there are water sports like jet-skiing and stand-up paddle boarding here. For those who want to stay dry, adventure through the hiking trails, browse local goods at the nearby Bukit Mungsu market, or just chill out at the surrounding restaurants and <em>warungs<\/em>. Lake Beratan is located at high altitude in Bedugul, meaning it&#8217;s much cooler up here, with mystical fog at dusk and dawn!<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/Danau+Beratan\/@-8.2733255,115.1664224,15z\/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x2dd18968c2459d53:0xbe028c1761c867ac!8m2!3d-8.2720396!4d115.1740942!16s%2Fg%2F121rpszf?entry=ttu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Lake Beratan on Google Maps<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>3.

These twin lakes are located within the protected Batukaru Nature Reserve, with relatively untouched native flora and fauna. Lake Buyan is surrounded by jungle and plantations, and is often frequented by the resident monkeys. Here you can trek through the trails by day, go fishing in the afternoon, and set up camp for the night \u2013 but keep in mind that there are minimal facilities in this area. You can also visit the nearby Pancasari Village and the community pool, Telaga Aya, to mingle with the locals!<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/Danau+Buyan\/@-8.245571,115.1068223,14z\/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x2dd18f454f1aa299:0x4d0d6da751091f26!8m2!3d-8.245417!4d115.1207303!16s%2Fg%2F121y9vmh?entry=ttu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Lake Buyan on Google Maps<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>4.
