Before first light, the jeep rumbles up a rough track and the silhouette of Mount Batur slices the horizon. You arrive while the sky is still cool and dim, the crater rim etched against a slow-brightening band of color. Breakfast on a rooftop vantage point follows—hot food and hotter coffee while the valley below shifts from indigo to gold.
