4/5 stars because guide was late we had to climb fast which was tough luckily we were fit enough for the challenge. Thankfully still managed to get up there 10mins before sunrise. The hike wasn’t tough if we weren’t rushing our way up. We added on a waterfall trip as well. It was very private not many crowds. Absolutely love it

Mang Sute was a great driver and highly experienced with knowing all the best spots and routes to take to give us the best experience possible. He was also very friendly, easy going and accomodating.

We are SO glad we did this. Heard so many tales (and saw the flood of jeeps) heading for the standard Mt Bateur walk and this was so unexpected and magical and felt like and adventure. And side note - in addition to watching the sun light up the volcano and the amazing details and history, we had a second guide stand in for the normal lead and he took the most insane photos. Normally not our thing but who even knew iPhones had cinematic mode and they made the world look like this! Seriously recommend (and I hate early mornings.)

Helpful Questions

How long does it take to climb Mount Batur?
It can take 1-2 hours to summit Mt Batur, depending on how fit you are - so in total going up and down will take you 4 hours. If you do the alternative Batur caldera route (which has 20-40 persons a day compared to the usual summit route of 300-600 persons), it'll take 30-60 minutes to climb each way.
How hard is it to climb Mount Batur?
It's one of the easiest volcano climbs, and is very beginner-friendly. The climb is on a very well-trodden path, the incline isn't very steep, and it only takes 1-2 hours each way (4 hours in total). So if you're able to walk for 4 hours on a moderately inclined path, you should be able to do the climb without much trouble.
Is Mount Batur worth it?
It is the most popular hike in Bali because you get to see a gorgeous sunrise (in good weather!), panoramic views over Lombok island and Mt Agung after a reasonably easy hike. So it's worth it if all you're looking for is some time out in nature and a good view. The only downside is that the mountain is very touristed, and it sees 300-600 hikers a day - so you will have lots of people around you during the climb. If you prefer a less touristed route we would highly recommend the alternative Batur caldera climb which only sees 30-40 persons a day - this climb is slightly easier (half the time), it gives you a gorgeous panoramic view and it also includes a boat ride across the Batur caldera lake which is cool!
What are the best activities to do at Mount Batur?
Some of the best activities to do at Mount Batur include hiking to the summit to catch the sunrise, exploring the volcanic crater, and enjoying a relaxing soak in the hot springs.
What is the best time to visit Mount Batur for a sunrise hike?
The best time to visit Mount Batur for a sunrise hike is early in the morning, typically starting the hike around 4am to reach the summit in time for sunrise.
