About This Experience
Overview
The Besakih route to Mount Agung is renowned as the classic, full-elevation mountain expedition. Starting near Edelweiss Park in the vicinity of mother temple Besakih, this trail guides trekkers through ancient highland forests, gradual pine plateaus, and finally steep volcanic ridges leading directly to the 3,142-meter highest peak. Because of its steady sustained ascent, it is considered one of Bali’s most authentic trekking achievements. Dekwar provides experienced private local guidance throughout this demanding journey.
