Description

Gunung Adeng rises approximately 1,826 metres in Bali’s Bedugul area. Balinese Wikipedia describes an inactive volcanic mountain, while Wikidata confirms its identity, country and coordinates. Hikers describe forest extending to the summit, places of worship and junctions requiring careful navigation. A 2014 Angseri account and a 2025 trip from the Blooms Garden area illustrate different approaches, without establishing current access conditions or permissions.

This historical approach climbs steps to Pura Pucak Anyar, then follows a path to the right into forest. The author initially took a wrong turn toward Pura Beji. This 2014 account does not confirm present access; check local permissions and conditions.

Climbing Experiences

These three accounts emphasize dense forest and navigation on Adeng. The Angseri approach starts around temples; a trip from near Blooms Garden records wet-weather leeches. Reported times describe each author’s own outing.
