Mount Batur, in the scenic Kintamani region of northeast Bali, offers a splendid panorama of Lake Batur and Mount Agung. If you wish to witness sunset from one of the best spots in Bali, our trek to Batur is highly recommended. Gunung Batur is an active volcano whose caldera was shaped thousands of years ago by a collapse of the magma chamber. Its first documented eruption happened in 1804 and the most recent was in 2000. An important eruption destroyed the village in 1917 but the lava flow stopped just before the village temple, Pura Ulun Danu Batur.
