About this audio guide
This guide to Sekumpul Waterfall in north Bali starts with an odd local rule: villagers require every visitor to hire a guide before descending into the valley, and travelers who've tried to go it alone say they've been followed until they paid up. You'll meet Kadek, a guide who left Bali to work abroad before returning to spend his days on this trail, picking up litter for a local environmental group. The path down runs a long flight of steep cliffside stairs before the water ever comes into view.
