🌋 THIS IS KINTAMANI, AND IT'S A VERY DIFFERENT SIDE OF BALI. 🇮🇩 When people think of Bali, they often picture beaches, beach clubs and tropical heat. But head into the highlands of Bangli Regency and you'll find an entirely different landscape. Welcome to Kintamani, home to dramatic volcanic scenery, lush green hills, cooler mountain air and some of the most spectacular views on the island. 🌿 Here's a little about what makes this area so special: 🌋 Mount Batur: An active volcano standing 1,717 metres high, famous for its sunrise hikes and incredible views from the summit. 💦 Lake Batur: Bali's largest lake, sitting inside an enormous volcanic caldera. Its crescent shape and surrounding mountains make it one of the island's most recognisable landscapes. 🌍 UNESCO Global Geopark: The Batur area was recognised as a UNESCO Global Geopark in 2012, celebrating its unique geology, natural environment and connection to local communities. ☕ Coffee and agriculture: The fertile highlands are known for coffee, Kintamani oranges and farming, with local communities playing an important role in the landscape. ♨️ Hot springs: The volcanic activity beneath the region also creates natural hot springs, with several places around the lake offering a chance to soak and enjoy the views. 📍 Where is it? Kintamani is in the Bangli region of central-north Bali. It's a popular day trip from Ubud, but there's plenty to explore if you decide to stay longer. Is it worth visiting? If you love scenic drives, cooler temperatures, mountain views, local food and seeing a different side of Bali, absolutely add Kintamani to your itinerary. 💾 SAVE this for your Bali trip and send it to someone who needs a little mountain adventure! 🌴 Planning your Bali holiday?
