Campuhan Ridge Walk

This guide to the Campuhan Ridge Walk in Ubud follows Rsi Markandeya, a wandering holy man from Java who is said to have stopped in the ravine below the ridge some twelve hundred years ago, sensing something in the ground where two branches of the Wos river meet. You'll hear what the Balinese word campuhan means, why the temple built at that river junction became one of the most revered in Ubud, and how the site is still used for purification and cremation rites today. The path itself traces the same route pilgrims have walked toward that junction for centuries.
