Bali Jungle Trekking, have you ever tried it out? When you go to Bali, don’t just visiting its beaches. Bali also has many great trekking routes, where you can experience best Bali jungle trekking. If you plan to try the jungle trekking in Bali, there are several things you need to do. First of all, you must choose the best place to do that. Here are some of our recommendations for your jungle trekking.
The Best Place for Jungle Trekking in Bali
Mount Batur
There are two routes you can take for reaching the top. One of them is the Pura Jati route. You will climb from this spot. You climb for about three hours until the top. Most of the Bali Jungle Trekking tours in Mount Batur use this route. It is harder. But, it gives you more experiences and an amazing adventure. And, at the top of the Mount Batur, you can see a beautiful sunrise.
Mount Agung
This is the highest mountain in Bali Island. Therefore, you can expect some real challenge when you do trekking here. You will need around 6 hours to go from the starting point to the top. So, in total, you need 12 hours to go to the top and go back down.
Tirtagangga
This place has a beautiful ancient water palace you can enjoy. You can take this route if you want to have easy jungle trekking. However, if you want for more challenge, you can take the village route. You will go around Lempuyang village. If you choose this route for Bali Jungle Trekking, you will need 6 hours.
Mount Abang
It is famous with the full jungle trekking route to reach the top. Unlike Mount Batur and Mount Agung that mostly consist of usual trekking road, this mountain isn’t like that at all. Most of the route is located in the jungle. It’s not as long as Mount Agung trekking route. However, the difficulty level can increase higher than the Mount Agung jungle trekking.
Sambangan
It is also known as Secret Garden. You will take the route that goes through the Sambangan jungle. The goal is the waterfall and natural pool at the top of the hill. It will take about 3 hours. We can say that this will become one of the best spots for Bali Jungle Trekking. The scenery along the trekking route is beautiful. But, more importantly, at the end of the route, you’ll find three beautiful waterfalls.
Sekumpul Waterfall
In the simplest words, this is the most beautiful destination for Bali Jungle Trekking. There are seven waterfalls located close to each other. The formation looks really beautiful. How about the jungle trekking?
The route will go through the jungle. However, the trekking route isn’t that hard. It has been fixed, so you can climb comfortably. But, you can still enjoy the challenge and scenery of amazing jungle along the route.
Mount Catur
This mountain gives you three different trekking experiences. Basically, in Mount Catur, you won’t get the experience for Bali Jungle Trekking. You also can enjoy many different routes, from the route that built close the lake and even go past the rice field.
The most unique part of this trekking trip is the place where you start your trekking. It is called Gua Jepang or Japan Cave. This cave is a cave that was built by Japan when they invade Indonesia a few decades ago. They used it to hold prisoners from WWII.
Basically, from the start, you will get a different experience than other trekking trips. And that’s not all. Once you reach the top, you can find a small temple. You can enjoy its scenery. And, if you carry a tent, you can even stay in this area for one night.
Things You Must Know
Bali Jungle Trekking is different than other jungle trekking. The main important thing you must know is the weather. Indonesia is located in the tropical climate area. Therefore, you can only find two seasons in this country, including Bali, which is a wet and dry season.
The best season to try jungle trekking is the dry season, especially if you plan to climb Mount Abang. In the dry season, the weather, as well as the lack of rain, will help you to avoid many problems in your climbing. With enough preparation, you can reach the goal easily.
In the wet season, the rain is your enemy. It will make the trekking road muddy and difficult. Moreover, you will go through a tropical jungle. So, in this season, the temperature is dropping greatly. It is very cold. This condition forces you to use more energy. That means you will build more fatigue.
However, it doesn’t mean you can do Bali Jungle Trekking on wet season. You just need to make good preparation, such as physical condition, equipment, and the most important thing is the trekking company/service.
Speaking about best trekking service for helping you to get best Bali Jungle Trekking, you can try Bagus Bali Sunrise Trekking. This Bali trekking tour company offers many different packages to several trekking destinations mentioned above.
Conclusion
Basically, if you plan to try jungle trekking in Bali, do not forget all of those important things we mentioned. Firstly, choose the place. Then, go at the right time and choose the best season for jungle trekking. And, the last but not the least, use Bagus Bali Sunrise Trekking for best trekking service you can get.

We had an amazing time with Mangku!He wasnt pushy yet very accommodating, pleasant and an excellent driver-photographer!It was very crowded at the top so he brought up to another spot where we has the luxury of taking as many photos n videos as we want without any other jeeps around us.Thank you Mangku, we enjoyed every minute of the adventure!- Mas, Ari and Denzel - gunjan a2025-06-08Verified Go, but get a massage after! Jata was a patient guide - I needed to catch my breath while climbing up and i’m petrified of heights so he literally held my hand while coming down. It was a breeze because of him. Couldn’t have imagined doing this without the support. Wayan Sukrawan drove us to Batur from our hotel and the Hot Springs. It was comfy and super nice to be have him shadow us through out. Getting into the hot springs after the trek was a blessing. A little crowded and sunny but very much needed. David W2025-06-08Verified Sunrise Trekking with breakfast and Hotel Transfer Ari picked us up and was on time. His English is quite good and was very friendly! We then met with Jata at the base of Mt. Batur and he was fun and kind! He provided us with walking sticks and headlights to start the trek and kept us entertained. If we needed to stop for a break he didn’t mind at all. His English is also very good and when we reached the top he took so many pictures for my wife and I, even coming up with awesome posing ideas! I highly recommend using this company to book this tour. alastair k2025-06-07Verified An unforgettable experience on Mount Batur Our jeep driver and mountain guide Yon was excellent. Yon had great advice, was very knowledgable and is a great photographer, which ensured we have stunning images that captured our day. He’s friendly, with good English and really helped to make the whole experience a positive one. We’d highly recommend him. Emmaline E2025-06-06Verified The best trek up Mount Batur We had an incredible trek with Carik!! He was an amazing guide! Highly recommend (if you don’t mind getting up early - haha)! Isabella S2025-06-06Verified Best experience in Bali! It was such an amazing experience!!! My favorite thing I did in Bali. Our guide Carik was so kind and allowed us to have the best experience. During the hike (which can get rocky and tiring), he made sure we had time to rest and allowed us to set the pace. When we got to the top, he picked the best spot for us where we could see the sunset unobstructured by other people. After the sunset, we spent almost 20 minutes watching the monkeys eat the rest of the food at camp. Thank you to our guide Carik and our driver Wayan!Showing only 4-5 star reviews
