The Kali Unda is a testament to the natural beauty of Bali. Its water flow, resembling a waterfall, is a sight to behold. The true beauty of Tukad Unda reveals itself when you cross the bridge over it, connecting Klungkung Regency with Karangasem.

The name Tukad Unda comes from the words tukad, which means river, and unda, which means terraced. Thus, Tukad Unda is a river formed into three levels so that it looks like a waterfall on each step.

The clear water, beautiful natural atmosphere, and splashes of fresh water make Tukad Unda a tourist destination worth visiting.

It used to be considered ordinary, but now it is equipped with various facilities, so it has become Kali Unda Tourism. The ticket price is relatively cheap, at only IDR 10,000/person. For location rental for prewedding photo activities, an entrance ticket or fee of IDR 250,000 is charged for all crew and models. In addition, road access is easy to reach.

Tukad Unda Dam Tourism presents a variety of exciting activities that you can do. The beauty of Tukad Unda would be a shame if it was not immortalized in photos or videos. One of them that is very popular today is prewedding.

In addition, when the weather and water discharge are favorable, you can also swim and bathe in this Tukad.

On the east side of the Tukad Unda Dam, a new spot called Kali Unda Tourism has been built since May 2017. There, you can relax while enjoying the beautiful expanse of Tukad Unda.
