Discover Les Waterfall (Yeh Mampeh) – An Underrated Natural Wonder in North Bali with Bali Car Rental with Driver

Contents

Tucked away in the quiet village of Les in Tejakula, Buleleng, Les Waterfall—locally known as Yeh Mampeh (meaning “flying water”)—is one of North Bali’s hidden natural gems. Unlike the more touristy waterfalls in central Bali, Yeh Mampeh offers a tranquil, off-the-beaten-path experience surrounded by pristine jungle and volcanic cliffs.

Standing at over 30 meters high, the waterfall pours into a crystal-clear stream, creating a serene atmosphere ideal for swimming, hiking, or simply relaxing in the sound of cascading water. A visit to Les Waterfall is a great way to discover the untouched beauty of Bali during your northern Bali holiday adventure.


Why Visit Les Waterfall on Your Bali Trip?

Here’s what makes Yeh Mampeh a standout destination for nature lovers:

1. Peaceful and Uncrowded

Because of its remote location, Les Waterfall is rarely crowded—even during peak season—making it perfect for quiet exploration or romantic getaways.

2. Scenic Jungle Trail

To reach the waterfall, you’ll enjoy a short, scenic trek through lush forest, bamboo groves, and gentle streams. The trail is easy enough for all fitness levels and incredibly rewarding.

3. Natural Swimming Pool

The base of the waterfall forms a refreshing natural pool, perfect for a dip in clear, cool mountain water. It’s ideal for escaping Bali’s tropical heat.

4. Cultural Village Experience

Les Village is known for its salt farming tradition and friendly local community. Many locals offer traditional salt for sale and are happy to share insights into their daily lives.

5. Perfect with a Bali Driver

Due to its location in North Bali’s rural area, getting to Yeh Mampeh is easiest with a Bali car rental with driver. A local driver can navigate the quiet coastal roads and suggest nearby spots like Air Sanih, Tejakula Beach, or Bondalem coral reef.


Price and Ticket Information

Visiting Les Waterfall is very affordable:

  • Entrance Fee: IDR 20,000 per person

  • Parking: IDR 2,000–5,000 (motorbike/car)

Optional: Local guides may offer to accompany you on the trail for a small donation or tip (IDR 20,000–50,000).

Bring water, a towel, and swimwear if you plan to enjoy the pool!


How to Get to Les Waterfall (Yeh Mampeh)

Yeh Mampeh is located in Les Village, Tejakula, Buleleng, approximately:

  • 3 hours from Denpasar Airport or Seminyak

  • 2.5 hours from Ubud

  • 1 hour from Lovina

Bali Car Driver Bali Car Driver and it was the best decision I ever made. They have a lot of options to choose from, such as full day tours, half day tours, combination tours and activities tours. I opted for the Ubud and Tanah Lot Sunset Tour and it was amazing. I got to see the monkey forest, the rice terraces, the temple on the sea and the beautiful sunset. The driver guide was very friendly, informative and flexible. He also took great photos of me along the way.

Superb service. We were fortunate to meet Bali Car Driver on line since we had 6 pax for the first trip in July 2002. Putu was our attentive driver, in formative and caring with exceptional English. We were with him for 4 days including our second trip in September 2022. We highly recommend Bali Car Driver as your transportation, your guide and your friend.

Simply Amazing We stayed in Bali for two weeks. We hired this service and Ketut was our driver for 10 of the 14 days. During that time we had booked tours with other companies. We were so disappointed that we didn’t book everything here. Our driver was on time (If not early), he spoke fluent English, and made suggestions as to where to buy stuff. It was a pleasure!! Ketut made us feel safe and any attraction we went to, he walked us to the attraction and made sure we got in without any hassles. We are so happy we used them!! 6 STARS!!
