Accommodation in Bedugal Bali
The Bedugal area, which includes Lake Bratan, Lake Buyan, Lake Tamblingan, is perfect for someone wishing to escape the heat of Kuta. Temperatures in the higher elevations are significantly lower and the change in climate is highlighted by the change in crops, with strawberries and other cool weather fruits and vegetables.
As well as hiking Gunung Lesong, Gunung Catur and around Lake Tamblingan to Munduk, you can enjoy a boat trip on Lake Bratan, or visit the famous postcard temple of Pura Ulun Danu Bratan.
Its possible to swing through the Bedugal / Lakes / Munduk area on a road trip from Kuta to Singaraja / Lovina. Better still take advantage of the accommodation options and spend a day or 2 exploring the area at your own pace. The 3 lakes are quite picturesque and the photo above features Lake Buyan is on the left, Lake Tamblingan on the right.
