Best Scooter Rides in Bali with Epic Scenery
Ready for an unforgettable ride? Here are the 7 best scooter rides in Bali guaranteed to deliver breathtaking views, cultural immersion, and pure adventure:
1. The Southern Coastline Route

This scenic journey takes you from the pristine shores of Pantai Pandawa to the equally stunning Pantai Melasti, continuing to the majestic Garuda Wisnu Kencana (GWK) cultural park, then on to the surfing haven of Pantai Suluban/Uluwatu, and finally, the sunset paradise of Jimbaran.
Prepare for dramatic limestone cliffs that plunge into the sparkling blue ocean, expansive white sandy Bali beaches, and the mesmerizing rhythm of crashing waves. It's a feast for the eyes at every turn.
The 11th-century Pura Uluwatu is a highlight, especially if you catch the iconic Kecak dance performance against the backdrop of a fiery sunset.
The colossal Garuda Wisnu Kencana (GWK) statue, a symbol of Hindu mythology, is another must-see.
No trip here is complete without indulging in fresh seafood at the warungs (local eateries) along Jimbaran beach. Savor your meal as the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky with vibrant hues.
Tips for Your Ride:
Always park your scooter well away from the incoming tide to prevent corrosion from saltwater.
Aim to arrive at Uluwatu before 5:00 PM to secure the best spot for the sunset and Kecak dance.
2. Northern Mountains Escape

Your adventure begins at the royal temple of Pura Taman Ayun, then winds its way through the cool highlands of Bedugul, past the tranquil Danau Beratan and the iconic Pura Ulun Danu Beratan, through the charming Desa Candikuning, and finally, to the magnificent Pura Tanah Lot.
Be enchanted by the often-misty Danau Beratan, surrounded by lush strawberry farms and towering pine forests.
The cool mountain air is a refreshing change from the coastal humidity.
The 1633-built Pura Ulun Danu Beratan, a temple dedicated to Dewi Danu, the goddess of water, appears to float on the lake – a truly iconic Bali image.
Pura Tanah Lot, perched dramatically on a rock formation amidst crashing waves, is another spiritual landmark.
You can capture iconic photos with the floating temple on Danau Beratan.
In Desa Candikuning, don't miss the chance to buy fresh forest honey and local produce directly from the farmers.
Tips for Your Ride:
The temperature in this region can drop to 15-20°C (59-68°F), so bring a jacket.
Avoid visiting on Sundays as traffic in Bali can be particularly heavy around popular spots.
3. Kintamani-Ubud Cultural Journey

This route takes you from the bustling Pasar Seni Sukawati to the playful Monkey Forest Ubud, through the stunning Tegallalang rice terraces, up to the majestic Kintamani region, and finally, to the pristine traditional village of Desa Penglipuran.
Feast your eyes on the emerald green Tegallalang rice terraces, an iconic symbol of Bali's agricultural heritage.
From Kintamani, you'll be treated to panoramic volcano views of Gunung Batur and its crater lake, Danau Batur.
Desa Penglipuran is a unique traditional village showcasing ancient Balinese spatial planning and community life. In Ubud, the Puri Lukisan Museum offers a deep dive into traditional Balinese art.
There’s a sample authentic kopi luwak at one of the plantations in Tegallalang. For lunch, the legendary Nasi Campur Ibu Oka in Ubud is a must-try.
Tips for Your Ride:
For a quieter experience at Tegallalang, consider a light trek through the back paths to avoid the main crowds.
Take the opportunity to interact with local farmers in Kintamani to learn about their daily lives.
4. East Bali Exploration

This eastern adventure leads you to the laid-back coastal town of Candi Dasa, the serene water palace of Taman Tirta Gangga, the underwater paradise of Amed/Tulamben, and the spiritual heights of Pura Lempuyang.
Be captivated by the tranquil water gardens of Taman Tirta Gangga, the dramatic black sand volcanic beaches of Amed, and the imposing presence of Gunung Agung (Mount Agung) as a backdrop.
You can experience the thrill of snorkeling around the sunken USS Liberty shipwreck in Tulamben.
For a spiritual cleansing, consider participating in a melukat ritual at the sacred springs of Tirta Gangga.
Tips for Your Ride:
To avoid long queues at Pura Lempuyang, aim to arrive for sunrise.
Bring your own snorkeling goggles if you plan to explore the underwater world.
5. Denpasar Heritage Trail

This is more of an urban exploration for those interested in the island's capital. While not a traditional "scooter ride with epic scenery" in the sense of open roads and nature, it's a fantastic way to immerse yourself in local culture and history by hopping between key spots.
Begin at the Museum Bali to delve into the island's rich past, then visit the ancient Pura Maospahit, and conclude your evening at Pasar Kreneng for a culinary adventure, trying local specialties like Nasi Campur Men Weti and Babi Guling Candra.
This urban trail is perfect for exploring everyday Balinese life and some lesser-known things to do in Bali.

6. Karangasem Royal Route

Explore the sprawling water gardens and elegant pavilions of Taman Ujung, built by the last king of Karangasem.
Combine this with the nearby Tirta Gangga for a double dose of aquatic elegance.
Finished at the Pura Agung Karangasem, the royal family's residence, showcasing a unique blend of Balinese, Chinese, and European architecture.
It's a journey through regal history.
This route offers a glimpse into Bali's aristocratic past and some stunning architectural Bali viewpoints.
7. Volcano & UNESCO Rice Fields Ride

This spectacular route winds through Tabanan, the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Jatiluwih, the ancient Pura Luhur Batukaru, the refreshing Air Terjun Banyumala, and finally, the charming mountain village of Munduk.
Prepare to be awestruck by 600 hectares of sprawling rice terraces in Jatiluwih, a UNESCO World Heritage site showcasing the intricate subak irrigation system dating back to the 9th century.
Don't miss the chance to savor local Luwak coffee at a warung like Café Sawah Jatiluwih, overlooking these magnificent rice terraces.
Pura Luhur Batukaru, this ancient 11th-century temple, dedicated to the mountain gods, is nestled within a pristine ancient forest.
Remember that menstruating women are traditionally prohibited from entering the temple grounds.
In Munduk, treat your taste buds to nasi sela (sweet potato rice) served with grilled ikan mujair (tilapia) at Warung Classic Munduk.
8. The "Green Path" Saba - Tenganan

For a short, offbeat adventure.
Start at the local fishing beach, Pantai Saba.
Then, journey inland to Tenganan, a fascinating Bali Aga village preserving pre-Majapahit traditions. See the intricate double-ikat geringsing weaving (considered sacred).
End at Bukit Asah Bugbug for a spectacular, less-crowded 180-degree sunrise panorama over savanna hills meeting the ocean.
Desa Tenganan, step back in time in this fascinating Bali Aga village (pre-Majapahit era), renowned for its intricate geringsing weaving technique – a sacred textile.
Meanwhile Bukit Asah Bugbug was rewarded with a spectacular 180° panorama of the ocean and savanna, making it one of the best scooter rides in Bali for sunrise.
