How to Get to Sekumpul & Fiji Waterfalls in Bali
Getting to the Sekumpul & Fiji waterfalls is straightforward; however, they are located in the North of the island, and you may wish to consider staying locally. The nearest tourist town is Lovina, and from there, the falls are a 45-60 minute drive away.
Be sure to head to the parking area we’ve pinned on our google map below otherwise you could end up miles away from the falls. I think we paid a small fee of 2000 rupee for parking. It’s then a fairly easy 1 hour trek to the falls.
*There is a lot of cool things to do in the North of Bali. We suggest spending 2-3 days there and using that time to explore the surrounding area. We found the North far less developed than other tourists hubs in Bali. So it’s an ideal location for those who like to venture off the beaten path.

Best Time to Visit
We found that the best time to visit any of the Bali Waterfalls is during the months of April-June, shortly after the monsoon season has ended. Tthe waterfalls tend to be at their most powerful during this time.
While Sekumpul and Fiji will never dry out completely, to see them in their true glory, aim to visit around this time. We visited in May, and as you can see from the photos, the falls were in full force.
Our Experience at Sekumpul and Fiji Waterfall in Bali
Upon seeing pictures of both Sekumpul and Fiji on Instagram, they immediately found their way onto our Bali itinerary. The momentous falls in an avatar-like environment appeared breathtaking.
We were on a tight backpacker budget and the time and decided to visit the viewpoint only. If you have the spare cash, I’d say go for it. But if you are on a budget, you could check out the viewpoint, plus 4 or 5 other waterfalls in Bali. All for the same price as the trek.
Sekumpul and Fiji Waterfall in Bali Viewpoint
From the ticket office, it’s around a 15-minute walk to the viewpoint. The trail leads through quaint local villages and lush jungle, so it’s a pleasant stroll and nothing too strenuous.
The viewpoint provides a stunning view of both waterfalls from above. Admittedly you get a better view of Sekumpul than you do of Fiji; but it’s epic all the same. At an incredible height of 80 metres, the falls are some of the tallest in Bali.
As we missed out on the hike down to the falls, we put the drone up to get a closer look. As you can see, we were able to get some pretty epic shots from above.

This is a great guide. Thank you! The thing I was looking for most was the parking location, but I can't see anything pinned on your map. If you could find the location, would you mind posting a link to the google maps location?

Hi Diana. Sorry, it's been a long time since we were there! If you type in Sekumpul Waterfall on google maps, I'm 90% sure it will take you to the parking area. If not, a friendly local will help you. Good luck and enjoy!

Let's keep things in perspective here. IDR200,000 is about $12USD. Western tourists are ridiculously spoiled by the prices in Bali.

Thanks so much for this awesome guide! I'm just wondering - what are your thoughts on driving a rental car around Bali, and to get to the waterfalls? Is it only possible to access waterfall parking on scooters? I've noticed on Google Maps that a lot of the small dirt roads/paths leading to the parking areas look like they might not be wide enough for cars?
