Located in the Kintamani area, Bangli Regency, this geopark is not only a center of nature conservation, but also a tourist destination that continues to be developed to attract tourists from abroad and domestically.
Geopark Areas with High Geological Value
Mount Batur Geopark covers an area of more than 370 square km. In it there are many important natural components such as Mount Batur, Lake Batur, the Batur caldera, and old villages such as Trunyan and Batur. The Batur Caldera itself was created due to a violent eruption thousands of years ago and is now one of the largest and most beautiful calderas in the world.
As a geopark area, Batur plays a role as a place to conserve geological, biological, and cultural diversity. Its presence is important as a natural and educational laboratory to recognize the earth’s history, weather transitions, and ongoing volcanic activities.
