The Sacred Monkey Forest of Padangtegal is unrivaled in mayhem, with over two hundred long tailed macaques monkeying around with visitors daily. The antics unfold in the depths of some of the lushest green forests that Bali is famous for, with ancient sculptures and temples interspersed between trails and the consuming greenery. Drawing upwards of 10,000 visitors during peak visiting months, the Macaques at the Sacred Monkey Forest in Ubud are well accustomed to humans and are even known to climb up and sit on your shoulder in return for a treat. More mischievous macaques have been known to run off with your sunglasses or watch so be sure to keep your eye on these little monkeys!
