Kintamani Area

Hotel List

Hotel Puri Bening and Lake View Hotel

Area Overview

Kintamani is perched on the rim of a vast crater, overlooking the crater lake and its bubbling hot springs. Lake Batur is the largest in Bali, and provides water for an underground network of streams and springs across the southern slopes of the mountain.

The evenings can get cool but an overnight stay is well worth it, to climb the mountain and watch the sunrise, or just to take a midnight dip in one of the springs.

With the location 1450 meters above sea level, Penelokan is a spectacular site to take pleasure in viewing Gunung Batur or Batur Mountain.

From Penelokan, the main road runs right round the rim towards Kintamani, the panorama shifting as circling around the crater. For a complete panoramic view, pass the half circumference of the crater along its upper rim.

The highest point is Bukit Penulisan. Here, one of the most ancient of Bali's temples contain the remains of carvings from the earliest Buddhist period. From Penulisan, the road continues towards Buleleng and Kubutambahan
