This used to be a really nice walk, but since the market has moved to Jalan Kajeng and many small shops try to sell their all-the-same stuff, it has become noisy and overcrowded, and I avoid it ever since.
There are plenty of nicer rice field walks where you can truly experience Bali's fascinating agriculture, if you step out of Ubud center and try your luck in one of the villages.

This is a very beautiful walk - no more than about 2.5 miles in total. Take it slowly and take in the views, the wildlife - butterflies, ducks, egrets, rice heron, cats etc. Talk to people who live there - maybe a fruit seller, or sarong/drinks seller, and your visit will be enhanced. The way back and down into town is a little tricky unless you are nimble and sure-footed and not recommended in wet weather, but it is do-able. The cafe along the way, the Sweet Orange Warung was a treat, with specialised coffees and warm welcome with gorgeous views. It is easy to do this walk without a guide.

A lovely walk right in the heart of Ubud. Walk up through the markets on JL Kajeng and turn left. After the sign that says no cars walk another 100m up a hill, then it opens into a fantastic walk in rice fields. Follow it around to the Sweet Orange Cafe for a lovely cool drink and meal. Then its better to turn back towards the markets.

This walk was the unexpected highlight of our brief stay in Ubud, and a nice respite from the noise and the traffic.
The walk is a loop to and from the main street of Jl. Raya Ubud that can be started from either the market that adorns Jl. Kajeng outside Saraswati Temple, or at the other end, a few hundred metres further down the road, in an almost hidden path that pops out between the museum and the Paon Seafood restaurant.
The first hundred metres along Jl. Kajeng competes with crowds, markets and scooters, before it becomes a much quieter and scenic road. At the top of the small hill it becomes a footpath, and then you veer off left into the rice paddies. At this point the walk and the views get better with every step, especially once you turn back towards Ubud and head towards Sweet Orange Warung, which is a great place for a break and drink.
The last section of the walk is a bit tricky, involving a narrow rough path clinging to the side of buildings, before it eventually pops out back onto Jl. Raya Ubud a short distance from where you started.
It can be done in both directions, but doing the start in reverse is tricky and hard to find.
A short distance into the path you’d forget you were anywhere near the noise and chaos of Ubud’s main streets.
A lovely short walk, under an hour, and a little glimpse into Ubud before development took over.

Heading to Ubud we had heard about the Campuhan Ridge Walk, but very little about this walk through the rice fields. We stumbled across a sign pointing us towards them and we decided to go. A great decision. The walk through these fields are incredibly scenic and really give off that Bali vibe. It was a quiet walk with only a few other people. When you get to the end, it's best to just turn around and go back to the beginning (the main street). It's completely free. Highly recommend.

It's a rice field, but the easiest to access. Worth popping your head in for a quick shopping break.

Now overdeveloped, too commercial, too busy with motorbikes. Was a Hugely charming area for walking with one or two spots for a coconut water and chat with a farmer. Lost its charm. Only quiet at 5am or when it’s pouring rain. One of my long time favorite stretches of rice fields is now a zero lot line villa development for foreigners who didn’t build in the style of this area. Constant construction noise. If you are looking for pastoral and quiet and authentic — Much nicer rice field walking in areas a bit further north in ubud or Tegallalang.

Ubud rice field walks are some of my favourite things to do in Bali, and the Kajeng rice fields fall into this category.
Basically it is a short to medium distance walk through the rice fields, where you get to see a less touristy and developed side of Ubud. The walk took around 90 mins and that was at a casual pace. I suggest going in morning or dusk as its baking hot during the day time.
Along the way you’ll see the green rice fields, local people working, and lots of coconuts. Its easy to follow as you just need to walk in a straight line more or less.
This is a great way to spend a couple of hours in Ubud. When you are finished you end at PYRAMIDS OF CHI Just get a Grab or Gojek taxi back to wherever you want

Hi 👋🏼
We are looking for a driver for tomorrow.
Meeting points would be Alaya Hotel Ubud at 15:00. we would like to have a nice tour of about 3.5 hours and visit Tegalalang Rice Terrace in the evening for sunset.
Maybe one nice place before that.
How much is it and are you available for tomorrow?
Best regards, Natascha

Is the path wet, can you wear trainers/runners?

It certainly wasn't wet when we walked it. The path itself isn't rough, uneven or boggy. I think you can assume that you can wear whatever you like on your feet.

Ok so I am in Ubud and am able to navigate the streets on a wheelchair (having to get up and down from it (I can walk a few meters with crutches) because of scooters on the pathway. Will I be able to go to the rice fields in a wheelchair? Is it pathed?
