Hiking in the mountains of Bali


Hiking in the mountains of Bali can be a great way to explore and get a taste of village life. The 2 most popular hikes are Gunung Agung, the highest peak on Bali which is a stiff hike starting at either midnight or 3am for a sunrise summit. Then there is Gunung Batur inside the Batur crater which is very popular but is also a tourist trap. Then there is Gunung Batukaru. Gunung where? you ask. Gunung Batukaru is located just west of the center of Bali and is the second highest peak. Hardley hiked, uspoilt and scenic, Gunung Batukaru offers an overnight hike and camping experience.

The best place to sty is the Bali Mountain Retreat which can organize hiking and transport for you if you are staying there.
