When I first visited Munduk, I had zero expectations! It was an accidental stop as I was doing an overland trip to Java and needed a halfway point to spend the night.
I loved Munduk so much that I ended up staying here for 3 nights, exploring all that the charming village has to offer.
Recently, Munduk has become Insta famous thanks to the numerous bird nests and swings as well as the picturesque Handara Golf Gates and Ulun Danu Temple
What most people don’t realize is that these bucket list locations in Bali are not found in Munduk itself, but rather about 30 minutes drive from the village. There’s so much more to this hidden gem in Bali than what meets the eye and you need to spend a few days here to really discover the true side of Munduk.
Get lost amongst the rice fields, go trekking through the forests, chat with the local people, and enjoy unspoiled views from your homestay. These were my highlights from my time in Munduk!
As with Sidemen, Munduk is another place where you can find super affordable accommodation high up in the mountain with panoramic views. This is the perfect place to sit back, relax, read a book, and take in the tranquil atmosphere of the island.
