Mount Batur is the easiest climb of the three volcanos and provides spectacular views of Lake Batur and the ocean. It is also Bali’s most active volcano, so check whether it is safe to climb before you go.

Most people do the climb as an organized tour, but you can do it on your own if you prefer. If you decide to do the trek without a guide, be prepared to deal with local guides in Kintamani, the town where the trek starts, who have a reputation for being extremely pushy and doing almost anything to hinder people without a guide to reach the summit.

The track starts out as dirt path, but as it quickly gets steeper it also gets rockier and after a while vegetation is mainly limited to grasses growing among the rocks. Before reaching the summit, a small vender sells refreshments.

On the summit views reach as far as Mount Rinjani, and if you have a guide, he or she might cook you an egg boiled in volcanic steam before the descent.

Hight: 1717 meter

Difficulty: The trek is straight forward, so if you are in decent shape, you shouldn’t have many problems.

Trip length: It takes one to two hours to reach the summit and the same time to get down, but you should also include time to enjoy the views and explore the rim of the crater.

Kuta Paradiso Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Firstly the perfect welcomes & constant politeness and interactions with staff is magic. It is a massive hotel with an awesome pool and it's Bar intertainment. The food, and cleanliness was great. Although some renovating would help in some areas, the room was well cleaned and well appointed every day. We were fortunate to get given some great vouchers that we used for a fun time. Our next stay will likely be at Paradiso hotel."
