This Mt Batur experience will take you off-the-beaten path with the best and most heartfelt guide - just read the reviews!This takes you to the rim of Mount Batur instead of the summit. This means the climb is easier (1 hour instead of 2), the views here are just as great (if not better), and it's way less crowded. Our favourite part of this trip is crossing Lake Batur by boat - a serene & magical experience! Finally, you can choose to add-on a side trip to Trunyan Village, Bali's oldest village with a magic tree (featured in the BBC!). What to Expect Pick up from hotel You will be picked up from your hotel in Ubud or South Bali. You will arrive at the start of your trek at around 4am where you will take a short walk through some local farm to Lake Batur.Crossing Lake Batur Once you arrive at the shore of the lake, the boat will be waiting for you. It will take about 20-30min to cross while you watch the stars glimmer in the night sky and get to the hillside of the caldera. The Ascent and Sunrise It will take 45 minutes to 1 hour to get to the top. The terrain is a fairly mild upward gradient surrounded by jungle vegetation. You will reach around 5.30-6am just in time for the sunrise. At this point your guide will also serve you a lite breakfast which you can enjoy while you watch the sun come up and illuminate the volcanic peaks of Mt Agung, Mt Abang, Mt Rinjani on Lombok Island and Mt Batur itself. The Descent You will make your way down the same trail you arrived. From there you will get back on the boat and take a short ride just a bit further up the shore to get to Trunyan Village. This portion is optional and can be added to your trip as a separate add-on.(Optional add-on) Trunyan Village: You can choose to make your experience even more special by adding on a visit to one of Bali's oldest villages, Trunyan, located on the banks of the Batur caldera lake. Trunyan Village is famous for having a magic tree which the village's fascinating burial practices revolve around. It's one of the most unique villages in the world, and well worth a visit. Your guide will share with you more information about their culture and beliefs. Trunyan village was featured in BBC Travel for its unique cultural heritage. Back to Your Hotel Once you finish up your visit to Trunyan Village you will get back on the boat and head to the other side on Lake Batur. Once there you can visit a sacred temple at the foot of Mt Batur. If you would like you can add-on a stop to the Natural Hot Springs to relax your tired muscles from the climb and early morning wake up.Approximate travel times with moderate trafficFrom Ubud - 1h00minFrom Canggu - 1h45minFrom Kuta - 2h00minFrom Seminyak - 2h00minFrom Uluwatu - 2h40min

Itinerary: Caldera Batur Highland Sunrise Hiking
Caldera Batur Highland Sunrise Hiking

We’ll hike the local trekking route of Batur only known to locals. We also contribute to the village around by donating some of your spendings to local people there. So indirectly, you contribute to the local economy of the villages and the lives of the people around there. :)

  • 2 AM-3 AM: Pick up from the Hotel (exact time depends on the hotel location)
  • 4 AM: Arrive at the trekking starting point. To start you will walk through the local farms to the lakeside. At the lake, the boat will be waiting, ready to bring you across Batur Lake to reach the Caldera hillside. Then you will begin hiking through the jungle hills to reach the Batur Caldera Summit. After trekking for around an hour, you will reach the top of the hill and settle in for the amazing sunrise views.
  • 6 AM: To complete your experience, when you reach the summit, you will be provided a fresh breakfast with hot drinks while you enjoy the most beautiful sunrise on the summit.
  • 8 AM: After enjoying the amazing sunrise we’ll climb down from the hill to the Lakeside where you will get to take in the amazing view of Mount & Lake Batur. On the Lakeside the boat will be ready to bring you back across the Batur Lake while you enjoy the magnificent view.
  • 9 AM: If you choose to go to Trunyan Village, you will make a short detour via boat to get there. You will disembark and have your guide lead you around the village and the cemetery to see how the locals bury their dead.
  • 11:00 Lastly, you will arrive at the sacred temple by the lake and then walk to the finish point through the traditional Balinese village.
  • 12 PM: After 4 hours of trekking, we'll bring you to the coziest hot spring in the Kintamani area, the perfect place to spend the rest of the morning easing the muscles after trekking. (optional)
  • 2 PM: Then we drop you back off at your hotel with plenty of memories that will last you a lifetime! (exact time depends on the location of your hotel)

Wow. Where do I start. From start to finish, this tour was all class. I’ve travelled extensively and this would rank as one of my favourite tours ever. Friendly and knowledgeable guides, not crowded (took this on a private basis and no other groups at the summit). Coffee and breakfast provided was delightful. Seeing the sun rise over majestic mountains is an experience you cannot miss. A soak in the hot pools afterwards was just what I needed. Thank you Justin and my guide (ganjun-not sure of spelling). You made me feel safe and cared for and went above and beyond to ensure I had a memorable experience. Thank you.

We were warmly greeted by Justin, who then brought us on a comfortable ride to a village area where we'd take a boat to the trekking spot at 4 am. The hike up the hill was moderately easy and pretty cooling. Justin was very attentive to our needs and constantly made sure that we felt comfortable. After witnessing the breathtaking view from above the clouds, we then went to the Trunyan Cemetary, where Justin gave a detailed explanation about the place and what we need to take note of. The temple visits after that, however, became a little lackluster as we were briefed by a local and it was very difficult to understand. Nevertheless, we had a really great time!

My best friend and I got Justin from Bali Yok and Anto to bring us to Caldera Hill for a sunrise view over Mt. Batur. The experience was amazing and one of the most memorable during our time in Bali; as the Sun rises over Mt Batur, Mt Agung and the Caldera lake. Justin is extremely attentive to details, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout. From making sure we brought our jacket, to our request for coffee at the peak and explained to us the local culture in Bali and Trunyan cemetery, and making sure we had enough rest while he drives us back to town. Justin was all in one; an amazing tour guide, an amazing driver, a photographer, and he's now family. Bali Yok does customised tours; all customised to your needs and favourites, so hit them up if you're looking for a memorable time in Bali! You will not regret it, I promise.

We did the sunrise Mt Batur trek and it was amazing! Our guides were so lovely and helpful and very accommodating and made sure we were safe. The trip starts with a boat ride to the start of the trek then you hike up a different peak to get views of the crater lake and coast which was amazing! Definitely recommend!

We had a fantastic day with Justin and team. We are so glad we chose the caldera track as there were only 4 tourists including us on the track and up the top. The views were spectacular- 360 degrees views of the lake, ocean and mountains. We loved the hot springs which overlook the lake and mountains. Fantastic and memorable day for our trip in Bali. Thanks!

It was my first time to Penida and I had an amazing experience with Justin! He was really friendly and brought us to a local seaweed farm and we even visited one of the local families there. Getting invited to their house and eating crispy deep fried seaweed crackers was a really amazing experience. He also brought us to all the other spots we wanted to see, like Diamond Beach and Broken Beach - so beautiful! Highly recommend a trip with Justin!

I've been to Penida four times now, and I have to say that this trip package was the best one yet! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and really enhanced the experience for us. Visiting the seaweed farm was a unique and enjoyable addition to the trip - I learned so much. I highly recommend this trip for anyone looking for a different and exciting way to experience Penida.

We really enjoyed our trip with Justin who showed us a different side of Nusa Penida. Especially memorable was seeing the seaweed farm: meeting the farmers and learning about their lives, seeing their fields and their home. Seeing Diamond Beach was super impressive as well! Even better than the photos.
