Mount Batur Sunset Hike

If waking up at 2am isn’t your thing, but you still want to see Mount Batur’s epic views – this sunset hike is a brilliant alternative. You’ll hike up the volcano in the late afternoon, skip the sunrise crowds, and enjoy golden hour from the summit with way more space to soak it all in. You can join a small group or opt for a private hike depending on how you like to travel.

Most people flock here for sunrise, so you’ll get a totally different vibe. It’s quieter, more relaxed, and feels more like you’ve got the mountain to yourself. Perfect for those who like the idea of hiking Mount Batur but prefer a more peaceful experience – or just enjoy sunsets more than sunrises!

Local guides who grew up around the volcano lead the way, sharing bits of Balinese culture and taking great care to match the hike to your pace. You’ll head down before dark with torches, taking in the last light of day as the sky changes colours over the caldera and lake.
