Banjar Hot Spring is located in the hills of northern Bali, approximately 47 miles (76 km) northwest of Ubud. The drive takes around two to two and a half hours, as the route winds through scenic mountain roads, small villages, and forested hillside terrain before descending toward the north coast.

Question 2

Is Banjar Hot Spring closed on any days?

Accepted Answer

Yes. According to the site's operating schedule, Banjar Hot Spring is closed on Sundays. The springs are open Monday through Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Confirming current hours at banjarhotspring.co.id before your trip is always a good idea, as schedules can change seasonally or on public holidays.

Question 3

Is the drive from Ubud to Banjar Hot Spring scenic?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the route from Ubud to northern Bali passes through rice fields, mountain passes, and traditional villages that offer a more rural and quieter side of the island. The landscape changes notably as you head north, with cooler air in the higher elevations and panoramic views over the coastline as you descend. It is one of the more scenic drives Bali has to offer.

Question 4

What activities are available at Banjar Hot Spring?

Accepted Answer

Visitors can soak in the three warm pools, wade through the natural water cascades, and relax in the beautifully landscaped tropical gardens. The pools offer natural massage effects from the water flowing through the carved dragon spouts. The surrounding gardens and shaded paths also make for a pleasant stroll between soaks.

Question 5

What is the best time of year to visit Banjar Hot Spring?

Accepted Answer

The dry season from April to October offers the most reliable conditions for the drive north and for outdoor soaking. During the wet season, the landscape is especially green and lush, which adds to the atmosphere of the gardens around the pools. Mornings are generally quieter and cooler, making them the ideal time to arrive regardless of season.

Question 6

What makes Banjar Hot Spring different from other hot springs in Bali?

Accepted Answer

Banjar Hot Spring is known for its series of three sulfur-rich warm pools fed by water flowing from carved dragon-head spouts. The combination of the natural cascades, stone architecture, and lush tropical garden setting gives the site a distinctive character. The water is said to have therapeutic benefits associated with skin relief and muscle relaxation.

Question 7

What other sights are near Banjar Hot Spring in northern Bali?

Accepted Answer

The Brahma Vihara Arama Buddhist temple, Bali's largest and most ornate Buddhist monastery, is just a few kilometers from the hot springs and is well worth a visit. The black-sand beaches of Lovina, known for their calmer waters and relaxed atmosphere compared to southern Bali, are also nearby. If you would like to include either stop, let your driver know after booking.

Question 8

What should visitors bring to Banjar Hot Spring?

Accepted Answer

Bring swimwear, as the pools are the main attraction. A towel is also essential. Comfortable footwear for the garden paths is useful. Bring cash for the entrance fee, as card payment may not be available at the gate. The water contains sulfur, which can have a mild smell, so this is worth knowing if you are sensitive to it.
