    If you start early from Saputara you can hit the forest by late afternoon. The 50 km drive takes roughly 1.5 hours if the roads are clear, so you’ll have a few hours for the forest before dark. A good spot to stay after the trip is Patang Residency in Saputara, which is only about 21 km from the forest entrance and offers easy access to both the forest and the town.
