Bali, IndonesiaBali's most photographed landscape — and genuinely breathtaking in person. Go early to have it almost to yourself.
🏔️
A 12.5-hectare sacred nature reserve in the heart of Ubud, home to over 1,200 free-roaming long-tailed macaques and three ancient Hindu temple complexes dating to the 14th century. Moss-covered stone carvings, towering fig trees, and walking paths through dense jungle. One of the most atmospheric and photogenic places in all of Ubud.
🏔️
Ubud's most beloved morning walk — a 3km ridge path through sweeping green hills and rice paddies above the Campuhan river valley, with views all the way to Mount Agung on clear days. Free, safe, and manageable solo. Start at 6am for mist, bird song, and the magical quality of early Balinese light. Ends at local warungs and the Neka Art Museum.
🏔️
Bali's most popular sunrise hike — a 2-hour guided trek up the active volcano's rim (1,717m) rewarded with sunrise over a sea of clouds and a panoramic view of Lake Batur shimmering in the caldera below. Book a guide the evening before in Kintamani. The lake-side villages at the base offer some of Bali's best fresh fish warungs for post-hike breakfast.
