Before dawn, headlamp cones cut through a cool Bali night as a small group climbs Mount Batur’s scarred slopes. The trail rises over black sand and old lava flows; each step brings thinner air and a widening view until the horizon brightens and the crater’s rim catches first light. A simple breakfast at the summit lets you watch steam drift from fumaroles while Lake Batur below turns from charcoal to glass.
