West of Seririt, Bali becomes drier, wider and noticeably less built around tourism. The route keeps to the island’s northwest line and follows the road toward Gilimanuk. The Bali Sea appears again and again on the right; low, dry hills rise on the left. This is not a hard climbing day, but it asks for focus: local buses, trucks, scooters, village sections and long straight roads set the pace. Around Gerokgak and Pemuteran, the coast gets rougher. Black sand, fishing boats, temples and the slopes above Pura Pulaki give the stage a sharper edge than the flatter kilometres before it. Near the finish, West Bali starts to feel close: fewer buildings, more open land, and the first approach to the national park and Menjangan coast. About 59 km, mostly rideable, never empty.
