How much is the Bali Swing?

Prices depend on the venue and package. According to ticket sellers and 2026 reviews, a basic package with several swings costs about IDR 300,000, while the full package runs up to IDR 650,000 per person; lunch is usually included and sometimes a hotel transfer. Single swings elsewhere, such as at rice terraces, are cheaper but much lower.

Book directly with the venue or a major platform so you know exactly which package you're getting. Check whether photos are included — professional shots are often extra.

What is the Bali Swing?

Bali's swings aren't playground rides: they're parks on the edge of a valley, with giant swings hung from trees or steel frames above the Ayung River jungle. The best known are in Bongkasa, west of Ubud — the original and largest is Bali Swing, with several competitors offering similar packages next door.

Besides the swings there are nests woven from branches, frames and bridges for photos over the valley, and some venues add pools and a restaurant. Many visitors come for the shot in a long flowing dress, which you can rent on site.

What to wear and bring

  • Comfortable clothes and closed shoes — flip-flops are awkward on the steps.
  • A dress for photos — bring your own or rent one there.
  • A card or cash — photos and drinks are usually extra.
  • A hair tie and a phone strap — it's windy on the swing.
  • Swimwear, if the venue has a pool.

More tips

  1. From Ubud — about 13 km west, 20–30 minutes by taxi, Grab or Gojek; many packages include a transfer.
  2. From Kuta or Seminyak — about 34 km, 1–1.5 hours.
  3. From Ngurah Rai Airport (DPS) — about 38 km.
  4. The parks line the edge of the Ayung valley in Bongkasa; check your ticket for the exact address, as there are several companies.

When to go

Mornings are best: cooler, softer light for photos and fewer groups. By midday there are queues for the popular swings. In the wet season swings may pause during downpours and the valley views can mist over.

Pair it with Ayung River rafting, which starts nearby, or with the rice terraces and waterfalls around Ubud.

Is the Bali Swing worth it?

Yes, if you like a thrill and great photos: swinging out over the palms is genuinely breathtaking, and the Ayung valley views are excellent.

YesGo's take: it's a commercial attraction rather than a natural sight — pricey by Bali standards and built for social media. If you don't need the 'dress over the jungle' shot, you can enjoy similar views for free on the Campuhan Ridge Walk or at Tegallalang.
