About
Mount Batur, Lake Batur and Mount Abang are what remains of an ancient volcano, and the 1.5–2-hour climb is considered friendly to beginners. Guides usually collect hikers around 02.00 to reach the top for sunrise; Toya Bungkah is the easiest route and Pura Pasar Agung the shortest. Check the volcano's status on the official site before you go, and hire a guide if you are inexperienced.
