- ABOUT THE SPOT
Backpacking / Trekking in Mount Batur, Bali, Bali Indonesia
Duration `:
6 Hours
Bali is a province in Indonesia with a few neighboring islands including the Isle of Bali. The island of Bali lies at about 8 degrees/ 0.13 radians on the south of equator and at 3.2 km/1.9 mi from Java. It is surrounded by coral reefs with white sand beaches on the south and black sand beaches on the north and the west of the island.
Watch the glorious sight of the red sky when it emerges during the sunlight and a lovely sunrise on top of a volcano. This is the most popular trek and many people climb the mountain just to watch the sunrise, which renders it crowded sometimes. Enjoy amazing morning views on this active volcano trek. The climbing trip sets off at a 4:00 in the morning to be able to make it to the top by 6:00 when the sun rises.
You get to walk round the verge of the volcanic cone and head on to the second crater which last erupted in 1926. Thereafter, it is the third crater which last erupted 1963 and lastly is the most recent eruption that occurred in 1974 and again in 1994. Whilst descending, you get to experience the black sand that was originally flow during the eruption. This whole trip lasts for a whooping 6 hours. After probably witnessing the most awesome sight in your entire life, you can choose to dive in the hot mineral spring pool to restore yourself.
