Mount Agung Sunrise Viewpoint
Mt Agung is Bali’s highest and holiest peak that stands at 3,031 meters! The name translates to Great Mountain and it is located in the north-east region of the island. As you may or may not know, Mount Agung is one of the largest and most active volcanoes in all of Indonesia.
If you’re an early bird like me and want to experience an unforgettable sunrise, I highly recommend taking an early drive to the Mount Agung Sunrise Viewpoint at Bukit Cinta!

HOW TO GET TO MOUNT AGUNG SUNRISE VIEWPOINT
The journey time to get to the Mount Agung sunrise viewpoint at Bukit Cinta is a 2.5-hour drive from Denpasar. I left my accommodation at 4am to get to the viewpoint in time for the sunrise. You can either rent a car and driver for approximately 600,000 Rupiah for the day, which your accommodation can organise for you or you can rent a scooter for 50,000 Rupiah per day from one of the many scooter rental shops in the area.
When you arrive at Mount Agung sunrise viewpoint (Bukit Cinta) I guarantee you will be astonished at the incredible view of Bali’s highest peak. I hope these photos I took of this location inspire you to go and explore this awesome spot for yourselves.
