Not recommended to visit during the rainy season because you have to walk around 2km one way uphill (you are not allowed to ride/drive—I wish I had known this). But if you are up for hiking, you might be okay. Still, be careful. It was steep and a lil bit slippery because fruits’ peels are everywhere. The monkeys were good tho, did not disturb us because we kept safe distance. The viewpoint was not that large, I wonder if it’s peak season, there must be too crowded. Plus point: fitness park seemed to be well-maintained. There were around 2 good parks that I noticed. Allowing you to stretch your whole body????

I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the surroundings are on Monkey Hill. I don’t think any of the photos on here do it justice. The first carpark area with the cafe and park is so pretty. You can just stop here to feed the monkeys, you just need to walk down the side road a little and they will come to you … if you bring them fresh fruit! Be sure to leave all your belongings in your vehicle! They will take your wallet just because they can, it happened to a lady while we were there.
The cafe is amongst the jungle canopy and such a nice spot to stop for a bite and refreshment. I could have eaten 3 serves of their roast pork canapés!
Definitely worth a visit if you enjoy feeling at peace amongst nature. The drive up is wonderful too.

If this is your first encounter with monkeys be prepared to be a little scared. We went when there was no people as well. There are big packs of monkeys and dogs in the middle of the road and you need to walk right trough them. We carried a large stick just for our peace of mind. Please don't feed the monkeys they have many signs not to do it because they can get aggressive.
It is quite a climb to the view point, yet most view points are overgrown with vegetation. You can only look down from this point.

What a place! I love monkeys so this was a must on our list. A real experience but on the way back, some of the monkeys got a bit picky with us and tried to grab my bag and my friends arm. They were still cool to see as there’s so many of them and the security staff at the bottom of the hill were very helpful!

If you want to improve your physical health this place is definitely recommended. Especially the best for the legs and butt ????
Didn't like the monkeys and dogs test were aggressive. The view is OK but not wow. The best impression was from the local people who are always walking there just as sport exercises and always friendly to help.

We extra took shopper with food inside, all bags we left inside motorbike. The monkeys are really crazy, they grab your legs and clothes, jump on bag. But it was funny because we prepared. But they destroyed bag because they bites with teeth. But if you have no food they not interesting at you at all, but if they see something like bottles or plastic bag they run to you like a hell) we were in evening time and they were probably more calm because have food all day long, but still very active)

Strange place. Dogs and monkeys everywhere. Grab a wooden stick to defend yourself if necessary. The monkeys were afraid, but the dogs aggressive. Dont feed any animals there, otherwise you will face the consequences...they are faster and in a group stronger than you!-Nevertheless, it is worth to visit the place. It's a chance to see those wild-living apes very close.
