Mount Batur is Bali's well-known active volcano and one of the best spots to go for sunrise hikes. This trek is of moderate difficulty and will take 2 to 4 hours round-trip. As a reward, you'll find the sky painted with either orange or yellow colors from the sunrise behind Lake Batur and Abang Mountain. Most tourists go with guided tours, which come with transportation, breakfast, water, and headlights for the nighttime hike. Most people leave at 2 AM from the busiest spots or spend the night at Kintamani to leave later. Mount Batur is safe to climb and is actively being tracked for eruptions. Afterward, tourists usually go to the nearby hot springs.
