Our sunrise trek on the Mount Batur was fantastic, especially with our guide Tri. She was very helpful, safe and walked at a good pace (either quickly or slowly depending on how you feel). We climbed the Mount Batur in 1h30, with a couple of stops on the way up. Tri prepared us breakfast and warm tea.
Before setting off on your Mount Batur trekking adventure, it is essential to make necessary preparations to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. Start by wearing comfortable clothing and sturdy footwear suitable for hiking.That doesn’t mean walking on Mount Batur Volcano is 100% safe, mind you. We can find records of a couple of accidents. A super unlucky 25-year-old Swede appears to have fallen into the active crater. There was also a case of a 70-year-old American who fell down the slopes of the Mount Batur Volcano and sustained fatal injuries while doing so.

Hi MVP7 I don't think it's that easy to go up without a guide and I can say it's very narrow, 30cm wide in some places, and so I felt safe with a guide. People have died climbing Batur so I'd recommend a guide or join a group climb which is cheaper.
