Full description

This classic Bali hike starts in the middle of the night. After a pickup around 2:00, you drive up to Kintamani, meet your local mountain guide and set off with a torch along the volcanic trail.

The climb takes about two hours, and you reach the rim as the sky starts to glow over the caldera lake and Mount Agung. Your guide serves a simple breakfast at the top, sometimes including eggs cooked in the volcano’s steam. On the way down you can add a stop at natural hot springs by Lake Batur to ease tired legs.
