As we come to the top of the caldera outer rim at Kintamani you will be met by a view that you will never forget as you first look out over Mt Batur, Lake Batur, the lava flows, villages within the caldera and towering mountains in the distance, including the mother of all Bali’s mountains, Mt Agung The drive time is approximately 1 hour 15 minutes from Ayung river and Tela Waja.

Day 3 Mountains: Munduk Valley Morning: Hike Mt Batur Volcano within the Kintamani Caldera. With good reason, this is the most popular hike in Bali and can easily be done with a moderate level of fitness.
