Mystical Trunyan Village - Lake Batur 12 hours
- Private tour
- Family friendly
Discover the mystical charm of Trunyan Village, an ancient Bali Aga village located on the peaceful shores of Lake Batur in the highlands of Kintamani. Accessible by traditional boat, this secluded settlement preserves centuries-old customs that remain deeply rooted in ancestral beliefs.
Trunyan is widely known for its unique open-air burial tradition, where the deceased are placed beneath the sacred Taru Menyan tree instead of being cremated. Remarkably, the tree releases a natural fragrance that neutralises odours, creating a calm and spiritual atmosphere. Surrounded by cool mountain air and panoramic views of Mount Batur, this journey offers a rare combination of culture, history, and dramatic volcanic scenery—perfect for travellers seeking authentic and meaningful experiences beyond Bali’s mainstream attractions.
