At the Heart of the Action
📍 Kelingking Beach Glass Elevator Project Suspended
Construction on the planned 182-metre glass elevator at Kelingking Beach has been officially suspended after authorities found permit violations and environmental concerns.
-
The project lacked key permits, including those for disaster mitigation and building safety.
-
Local community members and environmental groups raised objections, saying the structure would spoil the natural scenic cliff and risk increased accidents.
-
For visitors: the viewpoint at Kelingking remains open, but any elevator access is on hold.
🧗♂️ Extreme Park Bali (“Extreme Jump”) Closed
The adventure cliff-jumping attraction known locally as “Extreme Jump” (via Extreme Park Bali) has been closed until further notice due to safety and permit issues.

No formal reopening date has been publicly announced.
