Summit the Majestic Mount Batur: A Hiking Paradise

Getting There

• Public Bus

  From Ubud, head to the Ubud Central Bus Station. Take a bus to Bangli. The bus ride takes about 1 hour. Once you're in Bangli, you can take a local 'bemo' (shared minivan) heading towards Kintamani. Tell the driver you're going to Mount Batur; they should know the way. The bemo ride will take about 30 minutes. Get off at Central Batur where the trekking starts.

• Bicycle

  If you prefer to cycle, rent a bicycle in Ubud and ride towards Kintamani. The route is approximately 30 km and will take you through beautiful rice fields and local villages. Follow the signs to Kintamani and enjoy the scenic views. Once you reach Central Batur, park your bicycle in a safe spot before starting the trek.

• Motorbike

  Rent a motorbike in Ubud and head towards Kintamani. Follow the main road (Jalan Raya Ubud) until you reach the junction for Kintamani. Take the left turn and continue on the road for about 30 km until you reach Central Batur. There are signs along the way directing you to Mount Batur. Park your motorbike at a designated area before starting the trek.

• Walking

  If you're feeling adventurous and are staying close to Central Batur, you can walk to the trekking starting point. The area is quite picturesque, so it's a great way to experience the local culture and environment. Make sure to leave early enough to reach the base of the mountain before sunrise if you're planning a sunrise trek.
