Ranca Upas
A forest camp and deer park on the Ciwidey Highlands, where you can hand-feed sika deer. Nearby are a natural hot-spring pool and wide camping meadows.
Ranca Upas is a highland meadow surrounded by forest, about 5 km north of Kawah Putih. It is best known for its deer park, where visitors can buy carrots or fodder to feed the sika deer. The park also has a popular campsite, children's play facilities, horse riding and a nearby hot-spring pool (Kampung Cai). In the early morning the meadow is wrapped in mist and very photogenic. It suits family outings or a stop on a southern day trip. Highland nights can drop below 10°C, so bring warm clothing if you plan to camp.
