Located in Bali's Kintamani region, Mount Batur (Gunung Batur) is a revered volcanic peak, rising 1,717 meters (5,633 feet) above sea level. It is known for providing one of the most spectacular sunrise panoramas in Bali.

This trek is accessible for all levels of hikers, from experienced trekkers to beginners eager for a challenge. With the right guide and preparation, even those new to trekking can safely enjoy this adventure.

Once at the starting point, your guide will equip you with necessary tools, like flashlights or headlamps, and go over safety precautions. Wearing proper hiking shoes with good traction is essential for a smooth climb over rocky terrain.
The journey starts in the dark, with the path winding through forests and volcanic rocks under the glow of your flashlight. The cool morning air adds to the peaceful, almost meditative feeling of the hike.
As the trek continues, the path becomes steeper and rougher. It's important to take it slow, pausing for rest when needed. Your guide will ensure the group moves at a comfortable pace, offering help when necessary.
Mount Batur sunrise trekking is more than just a hike — it's a chance to discover, challenge yourself, and marvel at nature’s wonders. Whether you’re an experienced trekker or a beginner, this unforgettable experience will give you lasting memories of Bali’s stunning landscapes.

I want to give a shoutout to Sandit and Dian who were our drivers and tour guide during the Jeep experience, their hospitality and warmth made everything so memorable! Would totally come back Bali and have them again to be my tour guides! ❤️

Made boyさんに案内してもらいました。とてもフレンドリーなガイドさんで質問にも丁寧に答えてくれ、バリのいろんなことを教えてもらえました。写真もたくさん撮ってもらえて、素敵な思い出の写真がたくさんできました。 英語でにやりとりが難しくても翻訳機などを使ってコミュニケーションを取ってくれます。
BEST BALI TOUR EVER – ALL THANKS TO MADIA JR! Just got back from our Bali trip and I have to rave about our tour guide, Madia Jr. From the moment we met, he made us feel like old friends – so warm, kind, and genuinely happy to show us around Bali. He went above and beyond in every way: making sure we stayed safe crossing busy streets, pointing out hidden gems we’d never have found on our own, and he was absolutely fantastic as our personal photographer—every single shot turned out perfect. (seriously, all our vacation pics are frame-worthy now!). If you’re looking for a tour guide who cares as much about your experience as you do, look no further – he’s the one! Highly, highly recommend to anyone visiting Bali!
Please request driver Jero Pica. He is a young and passionate local. If you want to learn about Balinese language, local culture, and customs, make sure to ask the travel agency to assign him to you. And of course, his photography skills are top-notch as well! - 請指定司機Jero Pica，他是個年輕、充滿熱情的當地年輕人，如果想了解峇里島語言、在地文化與民情，請務必要向旅行社指定由他服務。當然，他的拍照技術也是一流！
We had a wonderful trip to East Bali thanks to our tour guide, Mr Pica. He was very responsible and extremely knowledgeable about the history of the places we visited, which made the experience even more interesting. He was friendly, helpful, and kind throughout the entire journey. We truly enjoyed our time and would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Bali.
We’re a family of four and booked the Ubud Sightseeing Private Tour with Pisan Bali Tour. Our driver Kadek was excellent — very friendly, helpful, and patient throughout the trip. He shared great local insights, made sure we were comfortable, and took us to beautiful spots around Ubud. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. Highly recommended for families who want a relaxed and enjoyable day exploring Bali!
Superb tour! Both Madia & Dian are friendly, very accommodating & they take really great photos. One of the best tours I’ve joined. Definitely above expectations 👍🏼
Keliwon is the best driver and guide in Bali. He took me to Mt.Batur and some of famous temples. Not only did that, but also he can took nice photos and videos. I could spend wonderful moments even though solo trip. Thank you so much!
광고 없이 한국어 어플 없이 챗지피티 검색해서 당일 왓츠앱으로 예약해서 이용한 후기입니당 일단 가격 합리적이고 막 더 받으려고 하지 않어요 ㅎㅎ 가이드도 굉장히 친절했어서 굉장히 만족합니다 또 이용하고싶어요 ㅋㅋ 계획 없이 발리 왓다가 첫날 갠차나서 4일 내내 이용한 곳입니다 특히 드라이버중에 ‘제로’ 드라이버님 넘 갠차나요 좀 더 잘되길 바라며 남깁니당! 차 종류와 상관없이 운전 거칠게 하는 분들 여기에 많은데 와이프 임신했는데 편안히 갈 정도로 편안하게 부드럽게 잘 했어요 ㅎㅎ
A great trip with tour guide Keliwon and thanks for helping me to take lots of great pictures. Hope can come back to Bali and try other local tours soon
keliwon boy and agus made the best trip for me on the jeep tour of Mt. Batur. They were very helpful and always ready to help if we had any problems. If they are in charge of your tour, you can be sure that it will be the best trip ever.
Experiencia muy buena. Estuvimos con Kadek todo el día y la subida en Jeep con Wayan. Un 10 para los dos
They can cover all the must-visit spots in Bali, with very reasonable prices and a super convenient service.
It's a nice experience with ATV and Sunset Cafe, and special thanks to our friendly driver Jero :))
Gede Mara is friendly and safe driver. The ride was smooth and I could ask any questions easily.
Excellent! We love the trip - enjoyed it a lot!! Wayan is professional in photographing and driving!! Highly recommended!!!
