A winning choice, you won't go wrong, as we mulled quite a bit between this and the usual trek up Mt. Batur but this one is super special and has much higher chances of seeing the sunrise. Our driver, Lita, was incredibly friendly and helpful. The guides Wie (also the boat captain) and Nawa shared openly about the area, life in the Mt Batur area. We climbed for just under an hour, it was dark and a bit damp but once the sun rose...heavenly. Even the guides were stunned into silence by the sunrise. Sadly Mt. Batur itself was covered in cloud the entire time so we were very happy to have chosen the caldera climb as our view was unobstructed and perfect. Probably the best sunrise i've seen. Breakfast was simple but filling, exactly what was needed. As an added bonus, Nawa conducted a full photo session that turned out so professionally. We added the Trunyan village cemetary which was so an honour to visit. Wie/the captain was kindly entertained all our questions and stops for photos. The boat ride on the lake was so relaxing and beautiful. Dealing with Seek Sophie has been such a pleasure, they were patient with all my questions and the staff working for them are pretty great.

The Mt. Batur sunrise hike was amazing. Our guide Yus was amazing! Our driver Pret was super on time and really pleasant. Would highly recommend the tour, the driver and the guide!

We had a most amazing experience hiking to the top of Mt Batur to see the sun rise. Our guide Wayan was very friendly and helpful and ensured that our experience was unforgettable. We are a family of 5 and I would highly recommend this tour.

Mount Batur FAQs

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.
