Mount Batur Sunrise Volcano Trekking & Lakeside Hot Springs
Ascend sacred volcanic ridges under starry skies to witness an unforgettable golden sunrise above the clouds, followed by volcanic steam-cooked breakfast and mineral hot spring relaxation.
Experience Overview & Highlights
Mount Batur is Bali’s most revered active sacred caldera. On this bespoke dawn expedition, bypass crowds with private chauffeur dispatch, dedicated Mount Batur Association mountaineers, and all-weather trekking equipment. Following your breathless sunrise, soak in natural therapeutic thermal pools fed directly by the subterranean volcanic bed.
