The Indonesian island of Bali is one of the most attractive tourist destinations in the world, as its features vary between picturesque beaches, historical temples, and active volcanoes.
Volcano tourism is one of the most prominent activities that attract visitors, especially with the presence of two active volcanoes Agong Mountain And Jabal Batour, who provide a unique experience for adventure and exploration lovers.
In this violent geological scene, Bali Island occupies a special location, and a rare experience in the presence of burning volcanic peaks.
Despite all the warnings, the attractiveness of the place did not retreat, on the contrary, the news of the volcanic eruption turned into a magnet that attracts visitors from all over the world.
Agong volcano rises to more than 3 thousand meters above sea level, and is considered the highest peak in Bali, and the locals sanctify this mountain, and they are believed to be the seat of the gods.
On the slopes of Agong, you see thermal water schedules, drill the escalating mud, and the bright sulfur colors that paint a surreal scene of yellow and orange around the nozzles.
Pator Mountain
There is also the volcano of Mount Pator, the youngest of Agong but is no less magic from it, and it is located in the mountainous Kintamani region, where hundreds of tourists reside all night on its slopes waiting for the sunrise from above the volcanic edge, in a scene that many describe as “light music in the lamb.”
The last volcano is an active for a long time and was his last eruption in the year 2000, and despite these risks, mountain climbing trips are still organized daily, as its summit can be reached in just two hours.
At night, tourists flock to organized tours, equipped with headlights, to reach the top with the first light.
The tours to Brakheen Agong and Pator provide an opportunity to explore the scenic landscapes, learn about local culture, and enjoy an unforgettable experience.
The volcano also provides a stunning view of the Pator Lake, and is considered one of the ideal places to watch sunrise.
Thriller lovers
With the repetition of volcanic eruptions, Bali’s fame was reinforced as a destination for extremist nature lovers, and this attracted a special kind of those who are not looking for comfort only, but also for excitement and stories that can be narrated after returning.
Indonesia includes more than 130 active volcanoes, and it is part of the “Fire Belt”, a geographical arc that surrounds the Pacific Ocean, and is constantly witnessing the collision of tectonic sheets, which leads to frequent earthquakes and porcines.
Despite this magic, the Indonesian authorities take strict measures when any volcanic activity occurs, where the exclusion areas are expanded around volcanoes, and the population and visitors are required to leave immediately.
In cases of large eruptions, nearby airports are closed, as happened repeatedly at Bali International Airport, and tourists are asked to register with their consulates.
Volcano tourism is not just pictures of communication platforms, but rather a deep existential experience, as some fans of this type of trips describe it, as it stripped the fragility of man in front of the forces of nature, and gives it a rare opportunity to see the earth in a permanent moment of creation.
Between the fear of the catastrophe and the amazement of the scene, Bali volcanoes remain one of the most prominent reasons for the attraction, especially for photography enthusiasts, geography lovers and explorers, and even those who are looking for a moment of reflection in the face of the smoke of the nozzle.
