Mount Ijen Tour from Bali 2 Days

Discover the mesmerizing Blue Fire and turquoise crater lake of Mount Ijen on an unforgettable overnight tour from Bali.

Mount Ijen (2,386 m) is an active stratovolcano located in East Java, Indonesia. Its crater hosts the world’s largest highly acidic lake, filled with 27.5 million m³ of turquoise-colored water. At night, Mount Ijen becomes one of only a few places on Earth where visitors can witness the rare and stunning Blue Fire phenomenon — a natural light show caused by ignited sulfuric gases.

On the southern shore of the crater lake, fumaroles continuously emit sulfur gases that ignite upon contact with oxygen, creating glowing blue flames visible in the dark. Sulfur miners work daily in this harsh yet surreal landscape, adding a dramatic human element to the otherworldly scenery.
