Discover the Majestic Puncak Batur

Getting There

• Public Bus

  Start by heading to the nearest bus station in your area. The Perama Bus Company operates a route from Kuta and Ubud to Kintamani. Purchase a ticket to Kintamani. The bus ride takes approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on traffic. Once you arrive at the Kintamani bus station, you can take a local bemo (shared minivan) or a motorbike taxi to South Batur. Communicate your destination to the driver, as it’s a well-known tourist spot.

• Bicycle

  If you are feeling adventurous, you can rent a bicycle from Ubud. From Ubud, head northeast on Jl. Raya Ubud toward Jl. Raya Sayan. Continue on the main road until you reach the turnoff for Jl. Raya Penelokan, which will take you towards Kintamani. This route is approximately 30km long and offers beautiful views. Once you reach Kintamani, follow signs for South Batur to reach Puncak Batur.

• Motorbike Rental

  Rent a motorbike from a rental shop in Ubud or Kuta. Head north on Jl. Raya Ubud and follow the signs to Kintamani. This ride will take about 1 to 1.5 hours. As you arrive in Kintamani, you will see signs directing you toward Puncak Batur. The road will take you through scenic landscapes, and once you reach South Batur, you can park your motorbike and begin your hike up to the viewpoint.

• Hiking

  If you are already in the area of Kintamani, you can hike to Puncak Batur from the base. Start from the nearest accommodation or local area, and make your way toward the base of Mount Batur. Follow the marked trails leading to the summit. It typically takes about 2 hours to reach the top, so start early to enjoy the sunrise views over the lake and surrounding mountains.
