Mount Batur is one of Bali’s most famous and active volcanoes, located in the northern part of the island near the village of Kintamani. Standing at 1,717 meters (5,633 feet) above sea level, Mount Batur is a popular trekking destination, known for its stunning sunrise views and dramatic landscapes. The volcano is still active, with its most recent eruption occurring in 2000, but it remains safe for visitors to explore.
Trekking to the summit of Mount Batur is a must-do adventure for nature lovers and thrill-seekers. The most popular way to experience the mountain is by taking a guided early-morning hike to the summit to witness a spectacular sunrise. As you ascend the volcano in the early hours of the morning, you’ll pass through lush forests, volcanic terrain, and rocky paths, with the anticipation of reaching the top to witness the sun rise over the island and the stunning caldera lake below. Once at the top, hikers are rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of Mount Agung, Lake Batur, and the surrounding valleys.
In addition to hiking, visitors can explore the nearby Lake Batur, a large crater lake that offers opportunities for scenic boat rides, hot springs, and cultural experiences in the nearby villages. Whether you’re seeking adventure, natural beauty, or a spiritual connection with Bali’s landscapes, Mount Batur provides an unforgettable experience that captures the island’s rugged beauty and volcanic majesty.
