One of the best ways to explore the idyllic rice terraces and little hamlets around the artistic town of Ubud in the foothills of central Bali is by bicycle. A number of hotel and ground operators offer daylong mountain bike tours that may variously include cooking classes, village and temple visits and a traditional Balinese lunch. Alternatively, just hire a bike and happily lose yourself in these bucolic backwaters. Sanur's splendid paved beachfront cycle-path stretches some 5 kilometers from the Jalan Mertasari area in south Sanur north to the main beach at Jalan Hangtuah. This makes for a lovely scenic bike ride, especially in the early morning. Serious mountain bike enthusiasts can opt for journeys to remote and cooler climbs around Karangasem and the lower slopes of Mount Agung, the central volcanoes around Bedugul, and the Gunung Batur volcano crater and rim.

Bali Trailblazers is the preeminent bike touring company on the island, providing flexible one-day trips to 2-week off road safaris. Tours include safety gear, hotel pick up and drop off, lunch, and accommodation for longer trips.
