Mount Batur Experiences
[July update: Contrary to what you read in the news, there is no hiking ban in Bali.]
Mount Batur is Bali's most popular volcano because the climb to the summit is beginner-friendly and the views are awesome. On a cloudless day, you'll get to see a gorgeous sunrise (in good weather!), panoramic views over Lombok island and Mt Agung.
Whether you like hiking or not, Batur has something for you! Choose a summit trek (normal or off-grid), jeep tour, or ATV ride - stunning views included in all.
Best time to hike is dry season (April-Nov). Avoid wet season (Dec-Mar), but if you're visiting in wet season, opt for a jeep ride or sunset trek instead - rain clears by afternoon.
Batur's easy hike makes it great for all ages and fitness levels. Don't want to hike? Take a jeep ride instead!
For a less crowded experience, go at sunset or take the off-grid route. Families should go at sunset or take a jeep. We'd also recommend pairing Batur with a Trunyan village visit!
