Balinese Hindus consider Mount Batur volcano to be sacred. You should begin the climb to the top in the very early hours of the morning to be able to experience the spectacular sunrises (our driver can collect you from the villa at 1.30am).
It takes about 2-3 hours to ascend and the same time to descend, depending on which route you choose. A fair to good level of fitness is required and a guide is compulsory.
