Monk 1/ Druid 11 works and is probably stronger than Druid 12. You gain Unarmored Defense and get to add your Wis modifier to your AC. That's the only way the combo really works. And it basically plays like a full Druid. Obviously doesn't work if you go down the Heavy Armor route.
Ranger 3 / Monk 9 works. You would take Gloomstalker and Way of the Shadow for some strong turn 1 shenanigans. If you go weapon Monk you even get to use Ensnaring Strike and Hunter's Mark otherwise you have a few support spells. But doesn't sound like the way you want to play.
If I were to go ranger/monk, I’d probably want to do Hunter if that would work. And definitely weapon. I like the quarterstaff.
Spores 2/Open Hand 6/Gloomstalker or Hunter 4 is also a really potent combo.
