Thank you Neill for all this amazing information. My husband and myself live in the South Pacific, where we're from but it's expensive. Is there a place in Bali with high mountains, cooler climate and peace and quiet? Thank you
The mountainous regions of central Bali offer the coolest temperatures on the island:
## Coolest Areas
**Mount Batur Region**
- Located in Kintamani district at 1,717m elevation
- Average temperatures range from 15-20°C
- Morning temperatures can drop to 10-12°C
**Bedugul Area**
- Situated at around 1,200m above sea level
- Temperatures typically range from 17-22°C
- Known for its misty mountain climate
**Munduk**
- Located at approximately 1,000m elevation
- Average temperatures between 18-24°C
- Experiences frequent cloud cover and cool mountain breezes
## Factors Affecting Temperature
The cooler temperatures in these regions are primarily due to:
- Higher elevation above sea level
- Increased cloud cover and rainfall
- Mountain air currents
- Dense forest coverage
Currently in the central region near Ubud, the temperature is 26°C with moderate to heavy rain and thunder, demonstrating how even at lower elevations, rain and cloud cover can affect local temperatures.
