Batur 3-Day Volcano Traverse
Kintamani-based. 14 guides, two 4x4s, runs the Batur ridge six mornings a week.
We re-check every operator licence and insurance policy once a year. If a licence lapses, the trip comes off this site the same week.
What this actually is
Three days, two nights, one caldera. Day one climbs to the Batur rim for sunset; day two crosses the black lava field to the hot springs and a family homestay; day three takes Abang before the drive back.
This is the version for people who want the ridge without the 2am-in-a-van feeling. You sleep at 1,200 m on night one, so the sunrise start is a 4am walk-up, not a 2am pickup.
Porters carry the tents and food. You carry water, a jacket and your own bag — about 6 kg.

What travellers said
Sleeping on the rim and walking across the lava field the next morning is the whole reason to come to Bali. Porters were machines.
Day two is long and hot by 10am. Take the extra water they offer. Homestay food was the best of the trip.
