Bali: ATV Rafting Zipline Swing &Sky Bike in Ubud Rice Field

U Fun Field packs Bali’s most photogenic thrills into one outing: you glide above rice terraces, pedal a skybike in the air, swing out over the fields, then tackle mud, jungle tracks, and river rapids. The unusual part is the quiet walk through private rice fields, where you learn how Balinese farming fits into daily life. The rice-field setting feels more personal than a quick photo stop, and the mix gives you far more than a single amusement ride.

I like two things here. First, the scenery changes constantly, from open terraces to tropical forest and river water. Second, the practical inclusions are generous for a $20 starting price: instructors, insurance, safety equipment, lunch, bottled water, lockers, showers, soap, and towels are provided at the rafting or ATV site. The zipline is designed for views rather than extreme speed, which suits many first-timers.

The main caution is that this is a highly arranged, photo-friendly experience, not a quiet day in rural Bali. Some sections can feel made for pictures, and the full combination may be tiring. Transportation between your hotel and the sites is not included unless you add it, so check the plan carefully before booking.

Key points to know before you go

• Five different ways to see Ubud: Zipline, skybike, swing, ATV, and rafting give the day plenty of variety.
• A private rice-field walk: Your guide explains Balinese farming and local daily life away from the busier Tegallalang setting.
• The zipline favors views over speed: You can take in the terraces without needing an extreme adrenaline rush.
• ATV terrain gets properly messy: Expect jungle paths, mud, streams, and river crossings on the Beji River ride.
• Ayung River rafting lasts about 2.5 hours: The route mixes gentle rapids, tropical forest, and refreshing splashes.
• Transport needs careful checking: Pickup and transfers between activity locations cost extra unless selected as an add-on.

Why this Ubud adventure works

Bali offers no shortage of swings and rice terraces. What makes this package useful is the range. You do not spend your whole day waiting for one famous photo. Instead, the activities move from air to land to water, with a cultural stop in the middle.

That variety matters if you are traveling with friends who want different levels of excitement. One person can enjoy the rice-field views and cultural walk, another can focus on the ATV ride, and everyone gets a turn at the more playful photo activities.

The experience is based around three possible starting points: Bali Bintang Rafting, Beji River Adventure Bali, and U Fun Field. Your exact meeting point depends on the option you choose. Read the selected option closely, since not every booking includes every activity or the same services.

The advertised duration ranges from 30 to 270 minutes, while the listed rafting and ATV portions take about four hours together. That tells you something important: this is not one fixed schedule for every booking. A short reservation may cover only selected activities, while the longer plan can combine the full set. Check the time shown for your chosen option before assuming you are booking the complete day.

Ziplining above Bali’s rice terraces

The zipline is an easy way to get your first broad view of the U Fun Field area. You glide over the rice terraces with the green fields below and the open Balinese sky around you. It is more about seeing the setting from above than racing at top speed.

That slower pace can be a plus. A fast zipline gives you a burst of excitement and then ends before you have taken in much. Here, you have a better chance to look down, enjoy the terraces, and take a photo if your equipment is secure.

A professional instructor provides the harness and safety belt, and the package includes safety equipment. You should still listen closely to the briefing and follow instructions about phones and cameras. A waterproof camera is listed as something to bring, but you should only use it if the staff allows it during the ride.

This section suits a first-time zipliner or anyone who dislikes intense speed. If you want a long, steep, high-speed course, you may find it mild. The point is the view and the feeling of floating over the fields.

The skybike and iconic swing

The skybike places you on a bicycle-style setup high above the rice terraces. Pedaling in the air sounds simple, but the height gives an ordinary movement a playful edge. It is one of the better activities here for a memorable picture because the pose is easy to understand at a glance: you are cycling above Bali’s farmland.

Next comes the large swing, which sends you out over the green fields. This is the most recognizable photo moment in the package. You get the sensation of soaring, but the ride is short and controlled rather than a full amusement-park attraction.

The staff provides the harness and safety belt needed for the elevated activities. People who are afraid of heights should skip this package, since both the skybike and swing place you well above the ground. You also need to be comfortable riding a bike for the skybike portion.

Bring a change of clothes even if you plan to stick to the aerial rides. The ATV and rafting sections can leave you wet or muddy, and you will want dry clothes afterward. A waterproof camera is more practical than an ordinary phone, particularly once you reach the river.

A quiet walk through private rice fields

The cultural walk gives the package a welcome change of pace. Your guide takes you through private rice fields and explains traditional Balinese farming and everyday rural life. After the noise and posing of the aerial rides, this slower section lets you notice how the terraces function rather than treating them as a green backdrop.

That difference is important. Famous rice terraces can become crowded, with people waiting for the same picture. The private fields at U Fun Field offer a more relaxed setting, and the route has been praised for having fewer crowds and shorter waits than the better-known Tegallalang Rice Terrace.

You should not expect a long museum-style cultural lesson. The information is tied to what you see around you: the fields, farming practices, and local routines. Ask questions while walking, especially if you want to understand how the terraces support daily life.

This is also the strongest part for anyone who wants something beyond staged activities. The swing and skybike are fun, but the rice-field tour gives the day a clearer connection to Bali. It is still arranged for visitors, yet the setting provides a more grounded look at the countryside.

ATV riding on the Beji River route

The ATV section begins with a safety briefing before you head onto rugged tracks. The route includes jungle paths, muddy sections, streams, and river crossings. That mix makes it more active than a simple ride around a flat field.

Expect the ATV to be the messiest part of the day. Mud can reach your clothes and shoes, and water crossings may add another layer of spray. Boots and a helmet are included, along with insurance and an instructor, but your own change of clothes remains essential.

You do not need to be an expert rider, but you should be comfortable controlling a bike-style vehicle and following directions. The activity is not suitable for people who cannot ride a bike. It is also not suitable for people with back or heart problems, pregnant women, children under five, wheelchair users, people afraid of heights, or anyone over 80.

The Beji River ride lasts about 1.5 hours. That is long enough to feel like a real outing without taking the whole day. The terrain gives you more variety than a short loop, though riders who prefer a clean, polished activity may find the mud inconvenient.

At the ATV or rafting location, you can use the locker or storage area for belongings. Showers, soap, and towels are included there, which is a very useful detail after the rougher sections. Put valuables away before riding and keep only what you can safely carry.

Rafting the Ayung River for 2.5 hours

The rafting portion takes place on the Ayung River and lasts around two and a half hours. You paddle through gentle rapids with tropical forest along the river. The water adds a refreshing finish to the day, especially after the heat and dust of the ATV course.

This is active but not described as an extreme white-water run. You should expect paddling, splashes, and moments that require teamwork, with calmer stretches between the rapids. The professional instructor handles the safety guidance and helps the group manage the route.

Rafting gives you a different view of Bali. From the river, the jungle and rock-lined banks replace the open rice terraces. The pace also changes. Instead of stopping for a posed photograph, you focus on the water, the guide’s instructions, and the next bend.

Lunch and bottled water are included at the rafting or ATV location. The exact meal is not specified, so do not book this expecting a particular menu. Still, having food and water included is valuable when you are combining several physical activities.

The rafting site also has showers, soap, towels, and storage. That makes it easier to finish the day without sitting in wet clothes for the ride back. Since transfers between locations are not included by default, confirm how you will move between U Fun Field, the ATV area, and the river site.

What $20 really gets you

At $20 per person, this package can be strong value if your selected option includes the activities you want. The price covers more than admission to a swing. Insurance, a professional instructor, safety gear, lunch, water, a locker, and washing facilities all reduce the extra costs that can add up during an active day.

The catch is the wording around options. Each activity or option has different inclusions, and transportation is not part of the standard price. A cheap base rate can become less cheap if you need hotel pickup and transfers between separate locations. Choose the transport add-on if you need it, then contact the operator on WhatsApp with your hotel address and preferred pickup time.

I would compare the price against your plans, not against a single attraction. If you only want a swing photo, you may not need this much activity. If you want several short adventures plus lunch and practical facilities, the value becomes much better.

The rating is 4.7 from 12 ratings, which points to a strong overall response but is still a small sample. The most consistent strengths are friendly service, attention to safety, and the pleasant private rice-field setting. One useful detail is the repeated praise for the staff’s helpful handling of bookings and requests.

Who should book this experience

I would recommend this for active visitors who want a busy half-day or full outing with plenty of variety. It works especially well for friends, couples, and families with older children who enjoy pictures but also want mud, water, and motion.

It is also a good fit if you are staying in Ubud and want more than the usual temple and market route. The cultural walk adds a local setting, while the ATV and rafting sections give the day some physical energy.

You should think twice if you dislike staged photo activities, heights, or changing between several locations. The swing, skybike, and zipline are designed for memorable images, and that can feel too commercial if you are seeking a purely rural experience.

The schedule may also feel packed. Five activities sound exciting, but they leave less room for lingering. If you prefer a slow morning in the rice fields, choose a shorter option or book the cultural section separately if that is available.

Practical advice for a smoother day

Wear clothes you can get muddy and wet. Bring a full change of clothes, and use the provided storage rather than carrying valuables onto the ATV or rafting route.

Read the inclusions for your exact booking. The product covers different combinations, and the meeting point changes with the option. Do not assume that choosing U Fun Field automatically includes pickup from your hotel or transport to the river.

The English-speaking instructors handle the safety guidance. Pay attention before each activity, especially because the day shifts between harness work, vehicle riding, and rafting. The staff has received strong praise for making people feel safe and comfortable, but your own attention still matters.

If you want the best balance, give extra weight to the rice-field walk, zipline, ATV, and rafting portions. The swing and skybike are fun photo stops, while the private fields and river route provide the more memorable sense of place.

Should you book U Fun Field?

Book it if you want Bali in a fast-moving sampler: rice terraces from above, local farming at ground level, mud on an ATV, and tropical river scenery by raft. The low starting price, included equipment, lunch, lockers, and showers make it appealing, provided your chosen option contains the activities you expect.

Skip it if you want a quiet countryside visit, dislike heights, or do not want to arrange your own transport. Before paying, confirm the exact meeting point, duration, activity combination, and transfer add-on. For the right person, this is a lively and practical Ubud day, with the private rice-field walk giving the package more substance than a string of photo rides.
