Petulu Heron Bird Colony Watch Point
Bird Watching in Petulu Village Every evening after 5:00pm thousands of big herons fly in to Petulu, a village about 2.5 km north of Ubud. The birds fly in over prime perching spots before settling into the trees where they will spend the night. Nesting and egg-laying begins in November, with the fledglings taking flight in March. The villagers believe that the herons are sacred, which is enhanced by their white and yellow feathers that are holy Hindu colours, and that they bring good luck and prosperity to the village. The perfect time to get there is about an hour before sunset. At the entrance to the village, you will be asked for a small donation.

Campuhan Ridge Walk is a free and easy nature trek. “Campuhan” means the confluence of two rivers in Balinese, and is spiritually significant to the local Hindus as an energy center. The walk is not strenuous, but there are a few uphill sections, and some steep rock stairs in places, so sneakers are recommended. Take a hat and wear sunscreen and bring a water bottle as there’s little shade, and the sun can get intense. Getting to the starting point is relatively easy: From Rumah Purnama it is a 10-min walk down Jalan Raya Sanggingan or a 4-min. drive by scooter or car. The walk begins at the entrance of Warwick Ibah Luxury Villas, just east of the Campuhan Bridge, before the Ubud Clinic. Enter the hotel driveway and take the left fork downhill before the hotel entrance. A partly obscured small sign reads “going to the hill”. Stay right (don’t cross the bridge) and follow the path. You have the option to be picked up at the starting point at Ibah Luxury Villas or at the longer trek and finishing point in Bangkiang Sidem village, by your driver.
