About Banyumala Twin Waterfalls
The Banyumala Twin Waterfall was one of several waterfalls on the northern slopes of Bali just below the twin lakes of Danau Buyan and Lake Tamblingan.
The waterfall pairing section has an estimated height of maybe 30m (which I extrapolated from the people in its idyllic plunge pool) making it one of the taller waterfalls that we encountered on Bali.

Indeed, pictures didn’t do this waterfall justice because you can’t capture all the springs surrounding the plunge pool with the main waterfall itself in one shot.
It’s one of those places where you really have to experience the place as opposed to try to represent your visit in a single photo (or even a series of photos and videos like what I’m conveying in this write-up).
Our visit to the Banyumala Twin Waterfall was pretty straightforward though the drive to get to the car park and trailhead wasn’t as straightforward (see directions below).
We started off by walking a narrow concrete scooter path for about 400m to a ticket booth passing by some Balinese swing and local farm fields along the way.

Mom and I each paid IDR 30k (about $2 USD as of June 2022), which made this excursion a little more expensive than the other excursions we’ve done in Bali to this point.
Then, we descended a series of unpaved steps descending alongside a well-vegetated cliff with springs emerging from it.
Eventually, the trail veered straight downhill alongside the trajectory of one of the side cascades spilling to the base of the main waterfalls.
At the bottom of the upside down walk, there was an outdoor shrine area as well as a pair of bridges spanning the outflow of the falls.

It looked like there was a continuation of the trail further downstream from the bridges here, but we didn’t pursue them.
According to my Gaia GPS map it may have gone to the Pucak Manik Waterfall as well as the Cemara Waterfall.
Overall, Mom and I spent about 30 minutes of walking and enjoying the falls, and then we walked back up to the ticket booth, where we saved the remaining 400m of uphill walking by paying to ride a scooter.
We paid about IDR 30k per person to go back up by riding tandem with the scooter owners (my driver struggled since I was heavier and wore a heavy day pack), which saved a bit of time.

So adding it all up, we spent about 60 minutes away from the car for this excursion.
