Mount Batur Sunrise Trek

Half Day (early morning)moderate$$

There are few experiences in Bali more breathtaking than watching the sunrise from the summit of Mount Batur. This active volcano rises 1,717 meters above sea level, and the pre-dawn trek to its peak rewards you with one of the most spectacular views in Southeast Asia.

Why This Experience

The Mount Batur sunrise trek is Bali's most iconic adventure. But with Ohana, it's more than just a hike — your guide shares volcanic geology, local legends, and points out features that most visitors miss.

At the summit, you'll enjoy breakfast cooked by volcanic steam while watching the sun illuminate Mount Agung and the caldera lake below.
