“Non è un trekking ! È molto pericoloso ripido, bisogna arrampicarsi sulle rocce e la discesa è ancora più pericolosa della salita. Bisogna essere degli scalatori professionisti, non basta un ottima forma fisica”

2.Mount Agung Sunrise Trekking Private Tours

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 128 reviews · from $55Best value

You leave late at night, hike Mount Agung by flashlight, and reach the crater rim for sunrise over Bali and Lombok. Private guides such as Darta have earned praise for calm pacing and safety care. Transfers, trekking poles, raincoat, breakfast, and drinks are included, but you must bring warm layers and sturdy shoes.

“This is a tough hike. It is a constant uphill on what would best be described as a angled rocky stream bed. We were picked up at midnight and started hiking at two. The guides were quiet with limited English but they were caring and attentive. It took us four hours to go the three miles and 4000 feet of elevation gain. The sky was mixed with fog and clouds and the views were wonderful. Coming down it was lightly raining and a bit slippery. The rock is grippy but loose in places. I think it would be possible to not have a guide but for the minimal expense it…”

“First we got picked up from our home stay in Tampaksiring (even though we had to choose Ubud as pick up). This was nice. After that we were nicely welcomed by all of the local guides and got hot drinks + the taxi driver gave us a whole bunch of snacks and drinks for the hike. The guided tour was amazing. The guide had a good speed and was very patient with our (slower) pace. We loved the bonfire before we climbed up the last part of volcano to to the summit. Also we loved that the guides stoped view times to do offerings. After the hike the taxi driver…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 5 reviews · 12 - 16 hours · from $60

Climb Mount Agung from Besakih Temple on a private, guided overnight trek. You start near 11 PM, cross jungle and slippery volcanic rock, and aim for Bali’s 3,032-meter summit at sunrise. Hotel pickup may be available, but bring food, water, warm layers, and proper trekking shoes.

“The sunrise was spectacular but we found this activity to be quite poorly planned overall. We were picked up from hour hotel at 9:30 pm and driven to the start of the hike, where we met our guide, who spoke no English. We were given a very basic breakfast for the following morning. Despite having asked in advance for vegan food, the only vegan elements were 2 bananas. We were told we should bring our own food. The hike up was smooth until we stopped at around 2600m and waited for two hours in the cold, to avoid reaching the summit way before sunrise. We found this nonsensical as there…”
