Sacred Waters

A sacred journey through Bali’s living culture
 
Step off the tourist trail and into the heart of Bali.
Sacred Waters is a cross-generational, immersive journey through rice terraces, ancestral villages, sacred water temples, and living traditions that continue to shape Bali as the Island of Gods. Guided by local knowledge keepers, this experience invites you to walk slowly, listen deeply, and reconnect — with land, culture, and yourself.
 
Why Sacred Waters is different
This is not just a hike.
It is a cultural passage.
You’ll walk paths shaped by the ancient Subak irrigation system, visit hidden sanctuaries, take part in a sacred water purification ritual, and be welcomed into a traditional Balinese compound — all while supporting local communities and regenerative practices.
