Restaurant with a view

Our driver knew exactly where to take us for lunch.
We had fabulous views of the mountain and lake plus a wonderful buffet.
The Gunung Sari Restaurant is a split level building, very clean, virtually hanging off the side of the mountain overlooking the lake. Top half [where the buffet is situated] is glassed in, while the remainder is an open terrace. Only open for lunch [11.30 - 4.00] with large and varied buffet.

There are many tours to Bedugal from all over Bali.
We took our tour from Ubud with a car and driver that was recommended by Klub Kokos.

Lookout

After you get out of your car in the car park and walk to the stairs going down the steps to the Gunung Sari Restaurant, you will be attacked by vendors. They want to sell you pencils,
postcards, key chains, whatever.

Unique Suggestions: Just say no thank you and keep walking. They will get out of your way, until you start back to your car.
