About Kintamani
Mount Batur's volcanic crater rises 1,717 metres above this hill town, its summit accessible by a strenuous pre-dawn trek rewarded with sunrise views across Bali's entire landscape. The crater lake mirrors sky while steam vents hiss from geothermal activity below. This is one of Bali's most potent natural and spiritual landscapes.
