Mount Batur Sunset Trekking

If you want the Mount Batur experience without the 2am alarm, this sunset trek is the perfect alternative. You'll hike in the cool afternoon air, enjoy fewer crowds, and catch a stunning sunset from the summit. Even better – you’ll tuck into a simple picnic-style meal cooked over natural volcanic steam while taking in the views. This is ideal for those who love adventure but prefer a more relaxed vibe over the hustle of sunrise tours. It's just the right mix of effort, reward, and something a little different. And if you'd like to make it even more special, there are some fun add-ons you can include – like a soothing hot spring dip afterwards or a visit to a local coffee plantation etc.

What to Expect

• Afternoon hotel pick-up and drive to the Mount Batur base
• Guided hike to the summit in time for sunset – much quieter than sunrise!
• Enjoy a casual picnic meal at the top, cooked the traditional way with volcanic steam
• Take in panoramic views over the caldera and surrounding countryside
