For beginners, we offer mat work classes that focus on stabilising the placement of the spine, pelvis, shoulder girdle and neck.
Other mat work classes include the Small Ball Class for more intermediate practitioners. Other more advanced mat work sessions include a Ring Class to target specific muscle groups.
Meant for tough and fearless bikers, the Kintamani Bike Challenge takes guests on an invigorating four-to-five-hour adventure through the lush mountains surrounding COMO Shambhala Estate. We begin with an ascent to Kintamani, high on the volcano crater rim of Mt Batur (1,717 metres), before enjoying a well-earned downhill ride all the way back to the Estate, through a chain of traditional villages dotted with craft studios and cafes.
Learning how to rock climb is a challenge for one’s critical thinking, concentration, coordination, strength, and flexibility. Learn how to work as a team to safely use a climbing rope and harness. Our trained guides will teach proper climbing and belaying techniques so that you will enjoy your new skills on our outdoor climbing wall.
The Tjampuhan Ridge Walk is arguably the best nown Ubud trek and with good reason. The sparse crowds and the aesthetically rich vistas remind one of why people from around the world come to Bali. The trail starts at the historical origin of Ubud, the confluence (or Tjampuhan) of the Oos Rivers. The majestic Pura Gunung Lebah 8th Century temple stands watch at the trailhead. Take in the beauty and contrasts of the rice terraces and distant volcanoes in the idyllic scenery that graces the Ubud countryside. Includes vehicle, mineral water and Estate guide.
This exciting experience of private river rafting in Bali brings guests from one of the Estate’s waterfalls, past our gardens and down the Ayung River. The rivers around COMO Shambhala Estate make for pleasant year-round rafting conditions, offering just enough white water to make the ride exhilarating without ever becoming extreme. Appropriate for beginners, the waters travelled on our guided Ayung River rafting adventure are generally class 2, with a few rapids reaching class 3. A great way to cool off in the tropical heat, rafting also provides an unrivalled way to explore the landscape, wildlife and exotic plants of Bali.
This easy walk takes you through the Estate’s environs. Enjoy lush rice fields and learn about temples and housing compounds. See the locals at work in the fields, cultivating the rice and tending to their flocks of ducks. Your guide is an expert in everything local and will be thrilled to share with you information of interest.
