Ubud: Zipline, Bali Swing, and Sky Bike in a Private Rice Terrace

The main draw here is simple: you get three aerial activities over Bali rice fields in one visit. At U Fun Field, you can swing above the paddies, pedal a sky bike along a high cable, and ride a zipline with wide views of the terraces below. A cultural walk through the fields adds some meaning to what could otherwise be just a photo stop.

I like the choice of four swings, since you can pick a dramatic Dream Catcher or Extreme Swing, or choose the gentler Flower and Couple Swings. I also like the helpful staff, especially the patient photo assistance and the chance to borrow traditional clothing and accessories for pictures. The main caution is weather: heavy rain can stop the zipline and sky bike, and the advertised activity package may vary depending on what you book.

Key points to know before you book

• Three high-view activities: Choose from Bali swings, a zipline over the rice fields, and a sky bike above the paddies, depending on your package.
• Seven photo settings: The Wings of Bali, the giant Dream Catcher Swing, and other photo spots give you plenty of poses without leaving the park.
• A real cultural add-on: The rice-field walk includes a farmer’s hut, a bamboo bridge, and an introduction to local traditions and farming.
• Private format: Only your group takes part in the activity, with private transport available as an option.
• Photo extras cost more: A long dress rental is listed at $15 per person, and a photographer costs $15 per person.
• Weather matters: Rain may limit which rides operate, so keep expectations flexible during Bali’s wet conditions.

Three aerial rides above Ubud’s rice fields

U Fun Field covers about 40,000 square meters in the rice fields around Bresela, north of central Ubud. The setting does much of the work. Instead of looking at a small artificial ride surrounded by buildings, you look across paddies and open countryside while waiting your turn.

The core activities are the Bali swings, zipline, and sky bike. The exact combination depends on the package selected, so check your booking details before paying. The advertised experience is suitable for ages 5 to 99, although every activity still depends on the participant’s ability and the operator’s safety rules.

The zipline is likely to appeal most if you want a quick burst of speed. You glide above the green fields and get a bird’s-eye view that is hard to match from a walking path. The ride is short, but the setting gives it more character than a standard amusement-park zipline.

The sky bike offers a slower, more exposed view. You pedal along a cable above the paddies, which gives you time to look around and take in the agricultural setting. It also requires more willingness to trust the equipment than a normal bicycle ride, so this is not the best choice if heights make you uneasy.

The swings are less about speed and more about the photograph. You can choose among four designs, including the Dream Catcher Swing, the Extreme Swing, the Flower Swing, and the Couple Swing. The first two suit an adrenaline-focused visit, while the latter two offer a calmer pose and a more relaxed ride.

Picking the right swing

The swing menu gives this activity a useful bit of flexibility. If you want the most dramatic image, the Dream Catcher and Extreme options are the obvious choices. The Flower Swing and Couple Swing make more sense if you prefer a quieter ride or want a shared photo.

The attraction promotes its Dream Catcher as the world’s biggest, but the important point for you is practical: it creates a large, recognizable setting for photographs. The staff are used to helping with poses, and the feedback about patient photo assistance is unusually consistent. One staff member named Hesham receives specific praise for his energy and help around the activity area.

Do not assume you must bring a professional photographer to get decent pictures. Staff members may help with poses and photos, and the package includes traditional clothing and accessories for pictures. Still, if photography is a major reason for your visit, the optional photographer costs $15 per person. That can be worthwhile for a couple or family trying to avoid hurried phone shots.

A long dress rental is another $15 per person. The listed dress option is described as a three-meter trail dress, which is designed to create movement in photos. It is an extra cost, not part of the basic price, so add it only if the dress effect matters to you.

What happens at the 40,000-square-meter fun field

The first part of the visit takes place at U Fun Field. The activity area combines rides, photo settings, food, and views, so you may spend as much time waiting for photos as riding. The stated visit time for this stop is about two hours, though the total experience can run from one to three hours depending on your selected activities and transport.

Seven photo areas are available, including the Wings of Bali. These setups are clearly aimed at memorable holiday pictures rather than quiet sightseeing. I would treat them as part of the experience, not an optional distraction, especially if you are already paying for traditional dress or a photographer.

There is also a cafe or restaurant area where you can sit with coffee while waiting. Food has received strong praise, and some people have included lunch as part of their visit, but lunch is not included in the advertised package. Plan to pay separately for anything you eat.

The park promotes five themes: sightseeing, culture, fun, photo settings, and food. In practical terms, that means this is a polished attraction rather than a remote countryside activity. You get clear facilities and staff support, but you should not expect a quiet, untouched walk through the paddies.

The one-hour rice-field walk adds local context

The second part is a guided walk through the famous rice fields near Ubud. It includes a stop at a farmer’s hut, a look at Balinese customs, and interaction with farming life. You may cross a bamboo bridge above a waterfall, help farmers with a harvest, or join them for coffee brewed over a wood fire, depending on the appointment and what is available that day.

This section matters because the rides can otherwise feel disconnected from the land below. From a swing or sky bike, the paddies are beautiful scenery. On foot, you get a closer look at the work and traditions that make those fields possible.

The cultural portion is not described as a long historical tour. Think of it as a short, guided introduction to local practice. Your guide shares information about Balinese traditions and the relationship between farmers and the land. If you want detailed history or a long village walk, this may feel brief. If you want a little context alongside the rides, it is a useful addition.

The route may also include the bamboo bridge and waterfall area. Wear something suitable for walking and activity, since the experience combines a recreation park with a field path. The provided information does not specify the trail surface in detail, so you should not assume it is fully paved.

How much value do you get for $21?

At about $21 per person, the basic price is attractive if it includes the activities you want. You are paying for access to a scenic setting, safety equipment, insurance, selected rides, photo areas, and possibly the cultural walk. That is a reasonable package for a short activity near Ubud.

The price becomes less simple when you add extras. Private transport may cost more depending on the option you choose. The long dress and photographer are each $15 per person, and lunch is separate. A couple who adds both photo extras could spend considerably more than the advertised entry price.

I would compare the cost with your priorities. If you mainly want one swing and a few pictures, taking a taxi or Grab to the site may be cheaper and more direct than paying for a transport option. One practical account of the experience specifically suggests going straight to the fun field by taxi or Grab, since the transport portion can feel like the main service being purchased.

If you want private transport, a guide, several activities, and the rice-field walk, the higher total may make sense. The private format also means only your own group participates, which is useful for families or couples who do not want to be mixed with a large group.

Private transport and the meeting point

The meeting point is U Fun Field on Jalan Banjar Gadungan, Bresela, in Payangan, Gianyar. The activity ends back at the same meeting point.

Private transportation with a driver is available if you select that option. Travel time is counted within the total duration, so a one-to-three-hour estimate includes the time spent getting to and from the activity when transport is part of your booking.

If you are already staying nearby, independent transport may be worth considering. The site is near public transportation, and taxi or Grab access is possible according to the supplied information. If you choose your own ride, confirm the exact location carefully, since Ubud has many attractions with similar names and rural roads can be less obvious than central streets.

The private format is a real advantage for families and small groups. You can move at your own pace within the activity schedule, take photos without joining a large party, and ask questions during the cultural walk. It does not mean every ride is available at all times, since weather and the selected package still control what you can do.

Safety, weather, and comfort

Safety equipment and insurance are included. Most people can participate, and service animals are allowed. Wheelchair users can reach the site and enjoy the views, but the listed rides are not accessible for wheelchair participation.

Rain is the largest practical risk. One visit managed only two swings because heavy rain made the zipline and sky bike unsuitable. The swings were still enjoyable, and the staff and driver were praised, but you should keep your schedule flexible rather than placing this activity immediately before an important evening plan.

The staff’s approach seems to be one of the attraction’s strongest points. They are described as friendly, patient, and willing to retake photos when a pose does not work. That can make a real difference when you are wearing a long dress or trying to photograph a fast-moving ride.

I would bring clothing that allows easy movement, even if you plan to rent a dress. Traditional outfits are supplied for pictures, but you still need to be comfortable during walking and getting into the equipment. The provided information does not specify a dress code, lockers, or changing facilities, so confirm those details if they affect your plans.

Who will enjoy this experience most?

This suits you if you want a compact mix of action, scenery, and photographs. Families can choose gentler swing options, couples can use the Couple Swing and private format, and solo visitors can ask staff for help with poses and phone photos.

It is also a good choice for anyone with only a few hours in the Ubud area. You can combine the fun field with a short cultural walk instead of arranging separate activities. The experience has enough variety that one person can prefer the zipline while another favors the swing or the slower sky bike.

It may not suit you if you dislike heights, want a long and serious cultural tour, or prefer an uncommercialized rice-field walk. The photo booths, themed swings, cafe, and organized rides make this a managed attraction. That is convenient and family-friendly, but it is not the same as wandering alone through a quiet farming village.

The age range is listed as 5 to 99, but you should still use common sense about height, mobility, and comfort with suspended rides. The information does not provide weight limits or detailed ride restrictions, so ask the operator before booking if those details are important.

Booking details worth checking

Confirmation is provided at booking. Free cancellation is available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the start time. Cancellations or changes made within 24 hours are not refunded or accepted, based on the stated policy.

Because the cultural tour is based on an appointment, check that this part is included in your chosen time and package. Also confirm which of the swings, zipline, and sky bike are covered. The general description presents all three, but the inclusion notes say the rides depend on the package selected.

The overall rating is 4.6 from 60 reviews, with 92 percent recommending the activity. The praise centers on the friendly staff, beautiful views, food, patient photo help, and the fun of the zipline and sky bike. The useful counterpoints are equally clear: bad weather can cut the activity short, transport may not feel necessary, and paid photo extras can raise the total.

Should you book U Fun Field?

I would book this if you want an easy, photo-friendly Ubud outing that combines several rides with a short look at Balinese farming life. The zipline over the paddies, the choice of four swings, and the sky bike give you more variety than a single swing attraction.

Choose the basic package carefully, and do not assume the $21 price covers every ride, transport, lunch, dress rental, and photography. If the weather forecast looks poor, keep a backup plan. For a family, couple, or small private group that wants scenery and fun without spending a full day on one activity, this is a solid value.
