Mount Batur is one of Bali’s most iconic and active volcanoes, located inside a dramatic double caldera in the northern highlands of the island, standing west of Mount Abang and Mount Agung.
Famous for its breathtaking sunrise views, Mount Batur attracts adventurers from all around the world every day. From the summit, you will be rewarded with a spectacular panorama of Lake Batur, ancient lava fields, and, on clear mornings, Mount Rinjani in Lombok rising on the horizon.
With SoBali Trekking, you’ll enjoy a comfortable, well-organized, and guided journey led by experienced local professionals. This trek is perfect for both beginners and seasoned hikers looking for an unforgettable, peaceful, and energizing way to start the day.
The ascent takes approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, followed by a relaxed descent. While waiting for the sun to rise, your guide will prepare a light volcano-style breakfast, allowing you to enjoy the moment as the first golden light touches the island.
After sunrise, you will continue exploring parts of the crater rim and volcanic terrain before finishing the hike at the base of the mountain.
