HPPGB - GUIDES
The region's local guides have banded together to form the HPPGB, a sort of guide "mafia". Fixed rates were introduced, which can be obtained from the office. It is now compulsory to be accompanied by a guide for night excursions, for example - and during the day, depending on conditions (ask locally about safety conditions and the risk of eruption). A guide costs 400,000 Rp and the entrance fee is over 100,000 Rp per person. The first ticket office is located in front of the Pura Jati temple on the road between Kedisan and Toya Bungkah. The second office is in the village of Toya Bungkah on the main road. There are also independent agencies, attached to a hotel for example, offering to organize the climb and transfers. Rates are slightly higher, however, as they include organization, transport and breakfast, which can be interesting and simpler.
Here are the different excursions we can offer you:
- Sunrise on Mount Batur (departure at 4am, return at 8am, depending on pace).
- Sunrise on Mount Batur with tour of the main crater (from 4am to 9am).
- Exploration of Mount Batur (and its various craters - from 4h to 10h).
- Ascent of Mount Abang (5h to 15h). Difficult.
- Long hike around the caldera (5h to 13h).
- Ascent of Mount Agung (23h to 12h). For further information, depending on volcanic conditions and evolution.
