Climbing Mount Batur, Bali's most famous active volcano, in the early hours of a new day is one of the most adventorous, challenging and rewarding experiences on the Island of the Gods. Mount Batur (Gunung Batur), located north west of Mount Agung, offers with its "double caldera" (one crater inside another) undoubtedly one of Bali's most stunning vistas. The first historically documented eruption of Batur was in 1804, and it has been frequently active since then with the last major eruption in 1963. The south east side of the larger 10×13 km caldera contains a caldera lake, Danau Batur, the largest crater lake on Bali and an important source of fish. The inner crater is a classic volcano-shaped peak that reaches 1,717 meter. The caldera is populated and includes the two main villages of Kedisan and Toya Bungkah.

    Overall very comfortable and enjoyable

    We went on a 5 day trip to Bali and stayed at Ubud. Bagus was our driver for all the days. He was very professional and friendly. He would share stories about Balinese culture and about the locals. Overall we had a good time in Bali and he made us feel safe and comfortable. I would definitely recommend his services and will use the same for our next trip to Bali. Thanks Ramya

    Excellent experience!!

    Our driver (plus guide) was very professional and English speaking. Made our whole trip very convenient as we didn’t have to worry about planning our routes. He guided us on the Balinese culture too. We covered North Bali, Ubud (rafting, swing, etc), Mt. Batur trek and South Bali in this trip.

    Perfectly organised

    The trek was perfectly organised. We were beginners and Bali bliss tours got us a trekking guide only for the two of us and not on a group basis. This helped a great deal as we could decide our own pace of climbing!

    Response from the operator: Hi Sangitha, thank you so much for taking your time post a positive feedback obout our product of Mount Batur trekking tour, with tegalalalang rice terrace and coffee plantation visit. we really happy to hear that. hope you can do that again next time when come back to Bali. God bless you. Kind regards, Nyoman Crocodile

    Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.

    How much does Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur cost?

    +

    Prices start at $46 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ubud usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur take?

    +

    Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ubud is not rushed.

    Is Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ubud, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ubud can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ubud and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ubud within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Ubud?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Ubud experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private 1-Day Ubud Highlights Tour, Mount Batur Jeep Adventure, Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking (Private Tour and Breakfast at Restaurant). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Ubud?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Ubud?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur?

    +

    Included: Breakfast. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2 listed pickup locations in and around Ubud. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Bali Top Hiking At Mount Batur if the weather is bad?
