Mount Batur Sunrise Trek with Natural Hot Spring - All Inclusive

About this tour

Climb Mount Batur, Bali's third-highest peak at 1,717 metres, to catch the sunrise from the crater rim of this semi-active volcano. This 10-hour trek departs before dawn and includes a soak in natural hot springs afterward. Your local guide navigates the moderately steep ascent whilst sharing stories of the sacred mountain—revered in Hindu tradition—and the geological forces that shaped the caldera and Lake Batur below. Hotel pickup, breakfast, and transport are included.

What to expect

You'll be collected before dawn and driven to the trailhead in Kintamani. The ascent takes roughly two hours on a steep, rocky path—expect loose volcanic soil and switchbacks. Temperatures drop significantly at altitude, so layering is essential. Sunrise arrives around 6 am; the views stretch across Lake Batur and neighbouring peaks. After descending, you'll head to natural hot springs fed by geothermal activity to recover your legs. The full outing lasts 10 hours. This trek demands genuine fitness; it's not a casual stroll.

Good to know

Bring sturdy hiking shoes, a warm jacket, long trousers, sunscreen, and a torch or headlamp. The path is unlit. Pregnant travellers and those with weak cardiovascular fitness should reconsider. Guides expect tips. Public transport alternatives exist if you prefer independent travel.
