Bedugul’s cool highlands are home to strawberry farms where you can see the fruit growing in its natural setting and, at farms offering pick-your-own, choose and pick fresh strawberries straight from the plants. The experience is simple, but it gives you a very different side of Bali from the beaches and temples most people know.
You can spend as little as a short stop walking through the rows and picking strawberries, or stay longer for fresh strawberry drinks, local produce and the surrounding highland atmosphere. Here’s what to know before adding a strawberry farm to your Bedugul day.
What Is a Bedugul Strawberry Farm?
A Bedugul strawberry farm is an agrotourism attraction where you can see strawberries being grown in Bali’s cool highland environment and, at participating farms, pick the ripe fruit yourself.
Strawberry farms can be found around Baturiti and Pancasari, two highland areas associated with Bedugul’s agricultural landscape. Pancasari sits at roughly 1,200 metres above sea level, with cooler temperatures that support strawberry cultivation, while farms around Baturiti also offer visitors a chance to experience strawberry growing firsthand.
The experience varies from one farm to another. Some are straightforward working farms where the main attraction is picking strawberries, while others combine the farm with gardens, drinks, restaurants or other agrotourism activities.
What Can You Do at a Bedugul Strawberry Farm?
A strawberry farm visit is more than walking around a field for a few photographs. The enjoyable part is getting close to the plants, choosing the fruit yourself and seeing where the strawberries you normally buy actually come from.
Here’s what the experience can look like once you’re inside the farm.
1. Pick Fresh Strawberries From the Plants
At farms offering pick-your-own, you can walk between the strawberry rows with a basket, look for ripe fruit and pick the strawberries you want to take home.
The process is usually simple: choose the ripe berries, pick them carefully, then have your harvest weighed before paying. At some farms, strawberries are charged by weight rather than through a fixed picking ticket. Bali Strawberry Farm & Resto, for example, currently describes its picking experience as pay-by-weight with no separate farm entrance fee.
One thing matters here: don’t assume every farm will have an open picking area every day. Strawberry availability depends on what is ready in the crop, and some farms can still sell strawberries or strawberry products when pick-your-own isn’t available.
2. See How Strawberries Grow in Bedugul
Walking through the farm gives you a closer look at strawberry cultivation than simply buying a box of fruit.
You’ll see the plants growing in rows, flowers developing into fruit and ripe strawberries hanging close to the ground. Around Bedugul, strawberry farming sits alongside other highland agriculture, including vegetables and other crops.
Some farms also use greenhouses or plastic-covered growing areas. Kore Berry in Pancasari, for example, grows Korean strawberry varieties inside protected houses and offers visitors a direct picking experience.
For you, that makes the stop much more interesting than simply “seeing a strawberry garden”: you’re seeing one of Bali’s cooler agricultural environments at work.
3. Taste Fresh Strawberries and Strawberry Drinks
You can also turn the farm visit into a quick food stop.
Depending on the farm, you may find fresh strawberries, juice, smoothies, jam or other strawberry-based products. Leon’s Strawberry, for example, offers fresh strawberry products including juice and jam, while Bali Strawberry Farm & Resto combines the farm with a restaurant serving strawberry-based food and drinks.
This works particularly well after picking. Instead of simply carrying your basket back to the car, you can sit down, have something cold to drink and enjoy the cooler Bedugul air before continuing your route.
4. Enjoy the Cool Highland Setting
The setting is part of the experience.
Bedugul’s elevation gives the area a noticeably cooler atmosphere than Bali’s coastal areas, and strawberry farms sit within a landscape of mountain agriculture, gardens and surrounding greenery. Pancasari, for example, sits at around 1,200 metres above sea level.
So even a short strawberry stop can feel like a proper change of scenery:
coastal Bali → mountain roads → cool highland air → strawberry fields.
That contrast is one of the reasons a strawberry farm fits naturally into a Bedugul day rather than feeling like another generic photo stop.
Best Strawberry Farms in Bedugul
Once you know what a strawberry farm visit is actually like, the next step is choosing where to go. The farms around Bedugul are spread across the highlands, particularly around Baturiti and Pancasari, and each one offers a slightly different setup.
For a straightforward strawberry picking experience, these are some of the farms worth considering when planning your Bedugul route.
1. Bali Strawberry Farm & Resto
Bali Strawberry Farm & Resto is a convenient choice if you want to combine strawberry picking with a proper meal or drink.
The farm is located in the Baturiti area and combines strawberry cultivation with a restaurant, so you can make it more than a quick stop. Its current picking setup uses a pay-by-weight system, meaning you pick the strawberries you want and pay according to the amount you take.
That makes it particularly practical if you’re travelling with family or want somewhere to sit down after walking around the farm.
Best for: strawberry picking + food and drinks.
2. Leon’s Strawberry
Leon’s Strawberry is another option around Pancasari, an area known for its cool highland agriculture.
The experience is centred around strawberries, with visitors able to pick fruit when the picking area is operating. The farm also offers strawberry products such as fresh strawberries, juice and jam.
Because the experience stays relatively focused on the farm itself, it works well as a short agricultural stop within a wider Bedugul itinerary.
Best for: a simple strawberry picking experience.
3. Kore Berry
If you want to see a more controlled approach to strawberry cultivation, Kore Berry in Pancasari is an interesting option.
The farm grows Korean strawberry varieties in protected growing houses and offers visitors the opportunity to pick strawberries directly. Its setup gives you a closer look at how strawberries can be cultivated in Bedugul’s highland environment rather than simply presenting the farm as a photo stop.
Best for: a more hands-on farm experience and seeing protected strawberry cultivation.
4. Hidden Strawberry Garden
Hidden Strawberry Garden offers another strawberry picking experience in the Pancasari area, with a garden-style setting that makes it suitable for a relaxed stop.
The attraction is particularly relevant if you’re looking for a place where the strawberry garden itself is part of the experience rather than visiting only to buy fresh fruit.
Best for: a relaxed garden and strawberry picking stop.

When Is the Best Time to Visit a Bedugul Strawberry Farm?
Where you go matters, but when you arrive can make the experience much more comfortable. Bedugul has a cooler highland climate than much of Bali, so a strawberry farm fits particularly well into the morning or an earlier part of your day.
Best Time of Day
Morning is usually the best time to visit a Bedugul strawberry farm.
The air is cooler, walking around the farm is more comfortable, and you still have plenty of time afterward to continue exploring Bedugul.
A practical window is around 8:00–10:00 AM, especially if strawberry picking is the main reason for your visit.
Arriving earlier also gives you more flexibility if you want to continue to other attractions such as Ulun Danu Beratan, Lake Beratan or the Bali Botanic Garden.
There is no need to promise that a particular hour will always be quiet, though. Farm conditions and visitor numbers change from day to day.
Best Time of Year for Strawberry Picking
Strawberries can be cultivated in Bedugul throughout the year, but the amount of ripe fruit available for picking can vary depending on the farm, cultivation method and crop condition.
Some travel sources identify the June to October period as a favourable time for strawberry picking in the Bedugul area, but this shouldn’t be treated as a fixed harvest season for every farm.
For you, the simplest approach is to check whether pick-your-own is operating before making the trip. A farm may still be open and selling strawberries or strawberry products even when there isn’t enough ripe fruit available for visitors to pick.
What About the Rainy Season?
You can still visit a strawberry farm during Bali’s rainy months, but the experience depends more heavily on the day’s weather and the farm’s growing setup.
Some farms use protected growing areas or greenhouses, which can make strawberry cultivation less dependent on direct rainfall. Kore Berry, for example, uses protected houses for its strawberry cultivation in Pancasari.
If you’re visiting during wet weather, wear shoes that can handle damp or uneven farm paths and keep your itinerary flexible. A short rain shower doesn’t necessarily cancel the entire experience, but heavy rain can make outdoor picking less comfortable.
For the easiest experience, aim for a morning visit when the weather is favourable, then use the rest of your day to explore the wider Bedugul area.
Best Bedugul Routes to Combine With a Strawberry Farm
A strawberry farm works best as part of a wider Bedugul day rather than as the only destination. Once you’ve finished picking and exploring the farm, you can continue toward the area’s lakes, temples and gardens without making the day feel rushed.
1. Strawberry Farm + Ulun Danu Beratan Temple
This is one of the most natural combinations for a first Bedugul visit.
Start with the strawberry farm in the morning, then continue to Ulun Danu Beratan Temple on the shores of Lake Beratan. The two experiences give you a good mix of highland agriculture and Balinese Hindu culture, without trying to cover completely different parts of Bali in one day.
Best for: a classic Bedugul sightseeing route.
2. Strawberry Farm + Bali Botanic Garden
If you prefer a slower day surrounded by nature, pair the farm with the Bali Botanic Garden.
You can start with strawberry picking, then spend more time walking through the botanical garden and its extensive highland plant collections. This works particularly well if you want to enjoy Bedugul’s cooler environment rather than rushing from one attraction to another.
Best for: nature, gardens and a relaxed pace.
3. Strawberry Farm + Lake Beratan
For a lighter itinerary, you don’t need to fill the day with multiple major attractions.
After visiting the farm, continue toward Lake Beratan and the surrounding viewpoints around Bedugul. You can spend more time enjoying the lake and highland scenery before moving on to your next stop.
Best for: a relaxed half-day or shorter Bedugul route.
3. Strawberry Farm + Jatiluwih Rice Terraces
This is a stronger option when you want to combine highland farming with Bali’s famous rice terraces.
The important thing is to allow enough time for the drive between the areas and for exploring Jatiluwih itself. It makes more sense as a full-day route than as a quick strawberry farm add-on.
Best for: agriculture, landscapes and a longer Central Bali day.
4. Strawberry Farm + Tanah Lot
You can also connect a Bedugul morning with Tanah Lot later in the day.
A practical flow is like this: Strawberry farm → Bedugul attractions → continue toward Tanah Lot → sunset
This gives you a noticeable change in scenery, from the cool highlands to Bali’s southwest coast. Because the drive takes time, keep the route focused rather than adding too many stops along the way.
Best for: a full-day route ending with a coastal sunset.
