Mount Batur entrance fee for foreign visitors
The Mount Batur entrance fee is not one single ticket. Several items can apply, and they are charged separately. The nature park entry (TWA Gunung Batur Bukit Payang) costs 100,000 IDR per foreign visitor, as stated by the forest authority BKSDA in August 2026. The 10,000 IDR rate you may see online applies to Indonesian visitors and is not a foreign rate.
Payment at the Pos Culali entrance is cashless. Many Mount Batur tickets are bought through a tour, so check whether the entrance is in your price before you pay twice. The sunrise trek price on the sunrise hike page is a tour price and covers different things from tour to tour.

Mount Batur tickets and tours with entry
Treks and jeep tours with live prices. Open the includes of each tour to see which entrance fees are covered.
Regional Kintamani levy
On top of the park ticket, Bangli regency charges a levy for developed attractions in Kintamani. Under the 2023 bylaw the adult rate for foreign visitors is about 50,000 IDR. Treat this as a guide figure only, because a revision is in the works and the amount can change. Check it at the ticket counter or with your operator.
Hot spring tickets
Bath entry is a separate cost and is paid at the bath, not at the park entrance. Batur Natural Hot Spring in Toya Bungkah states around 200,000 IDR for international adults and 100,000 IDR for children, open daily from 07:00 to 19:00 with towel and locker included. For Toya Devasya, the tourism ministry lists an indicative international price range of IDR 190,000 to 300,000. Check the current package price directly with Toya Devasya before visiting. More on the hot springs page.
Guide costs
Foreign visitors are asked to use a licensed guide, as explained on the climbing page. We do not quote a fixed guide rate. Before you agree, ask for the total price including park entry, the regional levy and any transfer. If you book a tour, read which of these items are listed under what is included. Entry and the Kintamani ticket are sometimes covered only with a transfer option, and a spring ticket is included in some tours and not in others.
Planning your budget
Because the items are separate, it helps to list them before you go: park entry, the regional levy, a guide if you are not on a tour, transport to the starting point and, if you want one, a hot pool visit afterwards. Ask your operator for a total in writing or in the booking message, and keep some cash for small extras such as parking or snacks. For night starts, see the timing on the sunrise hike page, and for how to get to the meeting point read the getting there page.
