Ubud: Alas Harum Day-Pass, Swing, Sky Bike & Flying Fox
Alas Harum turns Ubud’s rice terraces into an action park you can photograph all day. I especially love the Super Extreme Swing views, plus the 300-meter flying fox glide over the rice fields. Just be aware this place is not gentle on your legs, with around 200 steps and no elevator.
What you do, what you skip, and a realistic tradeoff

You get a full day pass feel, mixing high-adrenaline rides with slow walking for caves, pathways, and coffee. Your one drawback to plan around is the physical limits, pregnant travelers, kids under 7, and anyone with heart issues or certain congenital conditions are not allowed on the extreme activities.
Key highlights at a glance

- 25-meter Super Extreme Swing above rice terraces and jungle views
- Sky Bike cable ride, including a min height requirement for safety
- 300-meter flying fox zip line over rice fields with a harnessed ride
- Coffee tour to learn how coffee is made locally
- Cretya Ubud adult infinity pools nearby, with the entry ticket not included
How the Alas Harum day pass adventure fits together

This is a one-day combo built for people who want both views and adrenaline. You start at Alas Harum and move through the big-ticket activities, then unwind with gentler exploring and a coffee tour. The whole setup is timed like an outdoor circuit, so it feels like a theme park, but with real agricultural scenery around you.
The value is tied to what your ticket actually covers. The basics include the Alas Harum entrance, access to the rice fields and birdnest area, plus the coffee tour and insurance coverage. The swing, sky bike, and flying fox are the reason most people book, and they’re what you should prioritize when you arrive. After you’ve had your fill, you can relax at the adult-only infinity pools at Cretya Ubud, though that ticket is separate.
Two practical notes to keep your day smooth. First, the site runs from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, so timing matters if you want fewer crowds. Second, there’s a security check and lots of walking, with about 200 steps and no elevator, so comfortable shoes are not optional.
The 25-meter Super Extreme Swing over rice terraces

The swing is the headline because it puts you high above the rice terraces and surrounding greenery. You’re lifted about 25 meters above the ground, and that height is what makes the views feel dramatic rather than just scenic. The ride is built for adrenaline seekers, with lots of photo opportunities while you’re up there.
How to think about it before you go: the swing is short, but the experience includes the buildup time. You’ll want good posture and a steady grip when you’re positioned for the ride. Also check your weight limits ahead of time so there are no surprises at the station. The swing has a minimum weight of 35 kg and maximum 150 kg for single or 200 kg for a couple.
The bigger consideration is safety restrictions and physical comfort. If you have balance concerns, stairs fatigue, or you’re already worn down from walking, this is not the moment to push through. For me, the best approach is to do the swing earlier in your day when you still feel fresh.
Sky Bike cable ride, suspended above the valley

After the swing, the Sky Bike is a different kind of thrill. Instead of being carried by your body weight on a swing, you pedal along a cable ride about 15 meters above the ground. It’s a unique angle on the rice terraces below, and it’s often easier to enjoy because you have your own rhythm as you ride.
There are clear limits, so read them before you plan your day. Sky Bike has a minimum weight of 35 kg, with maximum 90 kg for a single and 150 kg for a couple. It also has a height rule, with the minimum sky bike height listed as 165 cm. If you’re close to either limit, it’s worth double-checking so you can swap activities smoothly.
My favorite way to enjoy this ride is to think of it like a moving viewpoint. You’re not just chasing speed, you’re getting a slowly changing view as you pedal past the terrace and jungle edges. That makes it a great counterpoint if you’re feeling a bit nervous about the swing.
Flying fox and zip line over 300 meters of rice views
Next comes the flying fox / zip line, the one that makes your stomach do the happy flip. This portion is about 300 meters of glide over the rice fields, and you ride harnessed. It’s smooth, and that matters, because it lets you focus on the scenery instead of fighting the ride.
As with the other attractions, there are weight limits. Flying fox lists a minimum weight of 35 kg and a maximum of 100 kg for a single. There’s also a general height and age restriction set for extreme activities, so check the visitor rules before you arrive to avoid wasted time.
If you’re deciding between activities, this is often the one people say is worth it because it blends adrenaline and a calm look at Bali’s working landscapes. The ride is long enough to feel like you’re traveling, not just taking a photo and moving on. Just be ready for a little time in line and some waiting, since the rides need safe harness checks.
Coffee tour and the terrace walking that makes it feel local

The rides are the headline, but the coffee tour and terrace access are what keep the day from feeling like a generic adventure park. You’ll learn about coffee through a local process and then get a coffee break as part of the experience. It’s not framed like a high-pressure sales pitch, and that’s what makes it more relaxed.
One extra detail: coffee testing is listed as not included. So if you love sampling flavors, treat the tour as education plus a coffee break, not a free tasting buffet. Still, the chance to connect what you see in the fields with what ends up in your cup is a satisfying link.
After coffee, you’ll have time to explore the property at a slower pace. The day-pass format includes access to the rice terraces, man-made caves, and pathways, plus the birdnest area. That walking portion is also where the park’s photography appeal shows up, because you can frame shots from multiple angles and catch different light across terraces.
Birdnest, caves, and the 200-step reality check

This is where I tell people the truth upfront: Alas Harum has stairs, lots of them. There are about 200 steps and no elevator, and it can be a lot if you don’t walk often or you’re heat-tired. Even if you’re fit, the climbs between stations add up.
You also want to be mindful that rails are not guaranteed everywhere. If you’re steady on your feet, you’ll be fine. If you’re not, consider swapping out a ride for slower exploration or skip the most extreme stations. One review highlighted that the height changes and stairs can be challenging, so it’s smart to plan your pace rather than rushing between attractions.
The good news is that these routes are part of the charm. You’re moving through paths that connect terrace views with caves and viewpoints. It gives you a tour-like feeling without being scripted. Just bring shoes with grip, and don’t wear anything that slips on stone or uneven ground.
Cretya Ubud adult infinity pools, a calm finish after the adrenaline

Once you’re done with the adventure side, the day can end with a soft landing at Cretya Ubud infinity pools. The pools are specifically for adults, which makes the vibe quieter and more relaxed than a family-focused pool stop.
You should know the key logistics point: entrance to Cretya Ubud by Alas Harum is not included in the day-pass package. That means you’ll either need to purchase it separately or follow whatever add-on plan the operator offers at the time you go. The experience itself sounds like the perfect cooldown, with tiered infinity pools where you can soak and look out over the surrounding greenery.
This pairing makes sense. If you do the rides back to back, you’ll feel it in your arms and legs. The pool is your reset button, especially at the end of a hot day when you want shade, a drink, and a slower pace.
What’s included, what costs extra, and why the price feels low

The headline price listed is $4.31 per person, which sounds almost too good to be true. Here’s why it can make sense. Included items cover the entrance fee to Alas Harum, access to the rice fields, birdnest, the coffee tour, and insurance coverage. That’s a lot for a single-day ticket.
At the same time, pay attention to what is not included so you don’t get surprised. Lunch is not listed as included. Coffee testing is not included either. And the Cretya Ubud ticket for the infinity pools is also not included.
Also, one review noted that the park access can be very inexpensive, with optional extras you pay for, so you should treat the combo rides as your priority purchase and plan any additional add-ons with a clear budget in mind. If you go in expecting everything to be free, you’ll feel a mismatch.
In practical terms, I’d compare this trip to paying for a single adventure ride elsewhere. You’re stacking multiple activities plus coffee learning in the same day, which is where the value really comes from.
Guide energy and local stops that add character
A day like this lives or dies by the people helping you navigate. One reviewer highlighted a guide named Agung, describing him as friendly and helpful, and they also mentioned a stop for local Balinese food at a typical restaurant without the tourist feel. Since lunch is listed as not included, treat that as a bonus option when your guide recommends it, not as something guaranteed in your price.
English and Indonesian support is available, which is helpful when you’re trying to understand height and weight restrictions quickly. It also matters on ride days, because you may need help with what station comes next or what to do if you’re close to a limit.
Who this is best for, and who should rethink it
This is an extreme-activity day, so it fits best if you enjoy heights, don’t mind stairs, and can handle harness rides. The rules also spell out who cannot participate in extreme activities: pregnant women, children under 7, and individuals with heart disease or congenital conditions are prohibited.
There are also weight and age limits listed beyond the extreme restrictions. For safety, the experience is not suitable for wheelchair users, for people over 70 years, for people under 35 kg, and for people over 150 kg (331 lbs). Flying fox and sky bike also have their own min and max weight limits, and the sky bike has the minimum height requirement of 165 cm.
If you’re traveling with mobility limitations, your best move is to treat Alas Harum as a walking viewpoint first and consider whether you truly want the extreme rides. One review specifically advised skipping if you’re not steady on your feet, because the route includes a lot of height change and stairs.
This is also a strong fit for photography lovers. Multiple viewpoints across rice terraces and jungle edges make it easy to get photos without leaving the property. If you want Indonesian culture beyond a quick photo stop, the coffee tour helps connect the scenery to everyday life.
Quick practical tips that make the day easier
- Wear comfortable, grippy shoes. The steps and uneven paths are real.
- Plan your day early. The operating window is 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, and earlier usually feels less rushed.
- Bring only what’s allowed. Pets are not allowed, and food and drinks, luggage or large bags are not allowed.
- Expect a security check before you start.
- If you’re near any restriction, check weight and height before you arrive, especially for Sky Bike.
Should you book the Alas Harum day pass, swing, sky bike, and flying fox?
Book it if you want a single Ubud day that combines big aerial rides with rice terrace exploring and a coffee tour. The price can feel like a deal when you take into account entrance, terrace access, coffee, and insurance, and the infinity pool add-on is a great cooldown if you want the full “active then relax” arc.
Skip or rethink it if stairs wear you out, you don’t handle heights well, or you fall into any of the restriction categories. Also, if you want a low-walking day, the around 200 steps and no elevator are a deal-breaker for many people.
If your goal is photos plus adrenaline plus a bit of local agriculture learning, this combo is a smart way to spend a day around Ubud.
