We reached a coffee hut at 3.20am for coffee and banana crepe. It was getting cold as we were closer to the peak. We met up with Wayan Suar, our guide and set off at 3.40am. It was a gradual hike at first. Until we reach a steeper point where it's loose rocks and gravels. A stick would be good to help with stamina and balance. After 1 hour 40 minutes, we reached the peak of Mount Batur. Wayan guided us to a hut that was installed at the peak and we had hot coffee and breakfast there while waiting for the sunrise. The view was breathtaking and we were above a sea of clouds! We moved higher towards the crater rim of the mountain to get beautiful pictures. Wayan has many creative ways to take photos and also explained to us about the terrain of the mountain. He also showed us the natural gas steaming out from the side of the mountain. Wayan decided we could take the medium track back and we were so happy to walk along the crater rim to see the different sites of the area.

Wayan decided we could take the medium track back and we were so happy to walk along the crater rim to see the different sites of the area. We could also see a slightly smoking Mount Agung and Mount Rinjani from where we stood. The sky was very clear that day!
As we descend we came upon the gravel loose rocks again and Wayan helped to "slide down" without tripping. We passed a forest and down to tomato, spring onion and chilli plantations! The view was spectacular! We also saw a pigsty at the side.
We reached the car park at 9am and we really appreciate the guidance given by Wayan. We bid our goodbyes and went to Sekumpul Waterfall.
It took us about 1.5 hours to reach the place as it is up north. The place was secluded and we were greeted by a young man who lived in the village. He guided us the way down, all 230 steps to the waterfall. The waterfall is 90 meters drop, and there's about 4 waterfalls at the same area. The view is unobstructed and amazing!
As we didn't bring our swimwear or sandals, we took off our shoes and just waddle and wash up at the shallow streams. But it would be nice to swim as it is only about 1 meter deep. We came back up for lunch at 12.30pm and bid our goodbyes to the young guide and head back to Kuta.
It took about 2 plus hours to get back to Kuta. Our driver was very kind to bring us chilli hunting at local supermarket, and we managed to find the small red and green chillies!
It was a very enjoyable trip for us and thank you for all the arrangements made! More

Incredible experience - definitely book while in Ubud or Bali - Gede was an amazing guide! He helped us with everything we needed, took us the quickest route to make it with plenty of time and found a quiet spot so... read more we could watch the sunrise with the whole view and no people. He was also a great photographer and took some amazing pictures and videos!
The whole experience is great- breakfast and drinks brought out to you while you sit and watch the sunrise. The hike itself is really beautiful as well as you walk back down through with views then through the forest.
Definitely recommend booking this sunrise hike - and ask for Gede if you can- he made the whole experience so fun ☺️

Best experience ever! - This was the best experience we’ve ever had! From the get go the staff were amazing!
Our guide (Oman) really helped us along the way and gave us some... read more amazing facts about the volcano too! We generally couldn’t have asked for a better guide, so thank you very much! He made sure we were safe and went at our own pace - he’s very good at photography too!
A must do trip when in Bali!!
PS. I recommend if you are planning to do this wear sensible footwear with good grip!

Awesome, patient guides with great photography skills! - My friends and I really enjoyed the experience with Yon and Tana - both of them were so friendly, easygoing and lovely to chat with, making the hike much more... read more fun! ☺️ They were also very patient in accommodating some of our friends who decided not to climb all the way or to go up by bike midway, making sure they were all taken care of and even brought breakfast down to them. Not to mention, their enthusiasm to capture amazing photos for us was definitely a bonus too! Highly recommend!
