Full description
This is a 1.5-hour experience from Ubud, built around Mount Batur. It is run by PT. Gorilla Adventures Bali, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.
Mount Batur is an active volcano of 1,717 metres standing inside a much older caldera, with Lake Batur on the floor of it. Sunrise treks start from Toya Bungkah on the lake shore, climb for around two hours on volcanic sand and loose rock, and aim to be on the rim by about 5:30, since the sun comes up between 6:00 and 6:30 depending on the month, behind the cone of Mount Agung to the east. The summit before dawn is regularly 8 to 12°C with wind, so a real warm layer matters more than anything else you pack. Trekking is run through the local village association, which is why every tour, ours included, comes with a guide, and most mornings end at the hot springs on the lake shore. Jeep and ATV versions drive to a viewpoint on the flank of the volcano for the same sunrise and skip the climb, which is the right choice for knees, small children and anyone who did not sleep. In the wet season, November to March, the top is often inside cloud at dawn and there is no refund for weather.
The price covers Hotel pick up and drop off, guides, All safety equipment, Bottled water and Shower room. It does not cover Pick up outside coverage area, Photos and videos, Batur natural hot springs visit and Personal expenses, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.
PT. Gorilla Adventures Bali sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with PT. Gorilla Adventures Bali before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

It was such a fun activity, our guide was really good and friendly. We will come again. 10 out of 10 stars. The best activity ever.
Gunawan was here right on time and was very pleasant to talk to for the car ride. the atv ride was incredible thank you
Was a fun adventure and our guide was great, definitely worth the trip! Such a cool spot to explore.
Kentung our guide was brilliant and ensured we had a variety of cool photo spots along with time to go fast on the ATV. He also took videos & made a montage of our experience. Would highly recommend if you don’t fancy doing the sunrise experience.
This was excellent fun, although we got absolutely filthy. Definitely take a change of clothes and a towel with you as they have showers on site. I accidentally rolled my quad bike but no damage was done but it is a boneshaker out there. We also did it at 2 o’clock in the afternoon when it was incredibly hot so take that into consideration. Highly recommended.
Lots of fun. A great way to get onto the lava field and explore. Highly recommend.
Gede great guide and made experience fun. Thank you
