Tucked away in the lush hills of Gitgit Village, Multi Tier Gitgit Waterfall is one of those rare spots in Bali that feels genuinely untouched. Unlike the more crowded waterfall attractions, this hidden cascade flows across three separate tiers, each with its own natural pool fed by cool, clear mountain spring water.
What makes this place stand out is the sheer variety it packs into one short trek. You get lush clove and coffee plantations along the trail, dramatic tiered views perfect for photography, and natural pools where you can take a proper dip.
Location and How to Get There
The waterfall sits in Gitgit Village, Sukasada District, within Buleleng Regency in North Bali. From the parking area, the walk to the waterfall takes about 15 minutes on a path that winds gently through plantation land.
Getting here is easiest with your own transport or if you hire a car with driver, as public transport options to Gitgit Village are limited. From Singaraja town, the waterfall is roughly a 20-minute drive south. If you are coming from Ubud or Seminyak, factor in around 2 to 2.5 hours of driving each way.
What to Expect at Each Tier
The multi tier Gitgit Waterfall experience is best appreciated slowly, level by level.
First Tier
The first tier is the easiest to access and often the busiest, with a wide natural pool suitable for a quick dip.
Second Tier
The second tier requires a bit more care on the wet rocks but rewards you with a more secluded pool and a wider view of the cascading water above.
Third Tier
The third and highest tier feels the most remote, with fewer visitors and a raw, unspoiled atmosphere.
The water at all three levels flows directly from mountain springs, keeping it noticeably cool even on warm days.
