An early start brings its own rewards in Bali’s volcanic highlands, where a Land Rover adventure offers a different perspective on the island’s dramatic natural scenery.
Departing from their hotel before dawn, guests travel towards Kintamani and a scenic viewpoint overlooking Mount Batur. Here, a light breakfast, freshly brewed coffee, and snacks accompany the first light of day as the sun rises over the surrounding volcanic landscape.
The journey continues into the Black Lava fields, where the rugged terrain and dark volcanic rock provide striking photographic opportunities and a closer look at the geological forces that have shaped this part of Bali.
Guests can then choose to relax at a natural hot spring or visit Pahdi Specialty Coffee before returning to their hotel.
The experience can be arranged privately for two guests per vehicle, accommodating up to 14 participants across seven Land Rovers. Larger groups of up to 48 guests can be accommodated using 12 vehicles, with four passengers per vehicle.
Available year-round, the excursion is particularly suited to incentive groups and corporate retreats seeking an outdoor adventure. Clear sunrise views are more likely during the dry season, although visibility remains weather-dependent.
