About this audio guide
This guide to Nungnung Waterfall in the hills above Ubud, Bali follows the more than five hundred stone steps carved into the hillside toward a waterfall that stayed a village secret for centuries, opened to outsiders only in 1996. It describes the roughly fifty-meter drop into a green pool, and the current near the base strong enough to catch swimmers off guard. Pace yourself on the way down; the climb back up takes about three times as long.
