What can you expect here?
Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary in Ubud combines a forest setting with a temple complex where long-tailed macaques live. It is both a nature and cultural place, with its own visitor instructions about being around the animals.
Discuss how much time you want there and read the current guidelines before visiting. A forest walk can add a different focus to a day involving art, food or a cooking class. Campuhan is another Ubud walking option to compare. Choose according to your interests; an encounter with animals is not a performance that follows a fixed programme.
Worth discussing
Follow the sanctuary’s current instructions and give the macaques space. Ask beforehand what a visit involves for your group.
An idea for your route
These ideas are not a fixed itinerary. What is practical depends on your starting point, traffic, visit length and conditions on the day.
