Bali Mount Batur is located in the northeast. It is an active volcano with an altitude of about 1,717 meters or 2,276 meters. It has a unique concentric crater structure. The inner edge of the crater overlaps with Lake Batur, and a 700-meter-high composite volcano stands in the center. It has a long history of eruption. In 1926, it erupted for 6 consecutive months, which had a huge impact on the surrounding areas. It also erupted in 1999-2000 and is still active today. The natural landscape here is magnificent and charming. The mysterious blue flames can be seen at night. In the early morning, you can enjoy the shocking sunrise wonders when you climb to the top. Lake Batur is clear and quiet, which contrasts with the volcanic landform. The mountaineering path leading to the top of the volcano is complex and needs to pass through swamps, rainforests, etc. The smell of sulfur can still be smelled at the base camp at an altitude of 1,900 meters. The unique funeral customs of the surrounding villages also add a mysterious color to this volcano.
