OVERVIEW

The trek begins in Sembalun village at an altitude of 1100 m and also ends in the same area. This route treats you to a wide-open landscape with a long trail and warm temperatures as you cross the meadow. To reach the crater rim at 2600 m, you’ll need strong stamina since you must climb five steep and demanding hills.

On the second day, the main challenge is the summit push at 3726 m, starting at 2 a.m. to catch the sunrise from the top.

Besides reaching the summit, you’ll also visit and soak in the crater lake and hot spring. You’ll camp at the second crater, which offers an incredible landscape—we guarantee it will amaze you. On the final day, you’ll descend through tropical rainforest to close your Rinjani adventure.

This experience is truly impressive as you will have conquered the second-highest volcano in Indonesia and captured unforgettable moments along the way.

Highlights of the 3-Day Rinjani Summit Trek

✅ Summit Trek (3,726 m) – Early morning hike to witness sunrise over Lombok and Bali
✅ Segara Anak Crater Lake – A stunning turquoise lake inside the caldera
✅ Aik Kalak Hot Springs – Relax in natural hot water after a long hike
✅ Savannah & Volcanic Scenery – From tropical forest to dramatic rocky terrain
✅ Camping at Plawangan Sembalun (2,639 m) – Overnight basecamp before summit

Included in the Trek:

  • Three days and two nights of camping on the mountain
  • Local, professional, English-speaking guides
  • Porters to carry all camping equipment, food, and drinks
  • Welcome drink
  • Headlamps, trekking poles, chairs, and even a dinner table so you only need to bring personal items

Special 2 Days 1 Night Summit Option

This version is tailored to guests who want a simpler plan without staying overnight in Senaru before trekking. You can choose your own hotel in Senaru such as Rinjani Lodge, Rinjani Light House, Warung Senaru, or Pondok Senaru. Transport from any area in Lombok to Senaru is easy to arrange using a taxi, and you can pay the driver directly. But if you want everything included, just choose the Mount Rinjani Trekking Summit 3D/2N package.

This program is also a response to those who think the price is too high or prefer to pay separately for the entrance fee (Rp. 200k/day/person), transport, dinner, and accommodation—so the total cost may differ from other offers.

The trek is fairly difficult, so good physical condition and previous experience are important. It’s also suitable for those with limited time who still want to reach the summit and camp in the Rinjani mountains.

Mount Rinjani, with an elevation of 3,726 meters, is Indonesia’s second-highest volcano. It lies on Lombok Island in West Nusa Tenggara. There are two official trekking entry points: Senaru Village and Sembalun Village. Our basecamp and office are located in Senaru, which means your trip is handled directly by a local organizer.

📍 Starting Point

We will pick you up from any location on Lombok Island, including:

  • Lombok Airport
  • Kuta Lombok
  • Bangsal
  • Senggigi
  • Selong Belanak
  • Sekotong
  • Other agreed locations

You’ll be taken to Senaru Village (our office) or another meeting point such as Senggigi, the Gilis, or Kuta, depending on the arrangement before trekking.

✅ End Point

Once the trek is finished, you will be dropped off at your next destination on Lombok, including the airport. We will meet you and give you directions before you depart from Senaru Village.

✈️ Getting to Lombok

You can enter and leave Lombok via Lombok International Airport, which serves as both the arrival and departure gateway.

From Bali to Lombok:

The most efficient route is by fast boat departing at 9:00 AM. You’ll arrive around 11:00 AM at Bangsal Port or Kodek Bay, and reach Senaru Village by approximately 12:30–13:00. This schedule allows you to enjoy the bonus trip we provide.
Taking the ferry is possible but slower (4–5 hours), plus a 3–4 hour drive from Lembar Port to Senaru.

If you choose to fly from Bali to Lombok, you will typically land around 11:25 AM, followed by a 3–4 hour drive to Senaru from the airport.

🕒 Best Time to Arrive

We highly suggest arriving one day before your trek, as all Rinjani trekking programs begin in the morning. Coming earlier gives you time to:

  • Rest and recover
  • Prepare equipment without rushing
  • Avoid trekking under the strong sun when crossing the savannah of Sembalun

Starting from Sembalun in the morning also helps minimize exposure to heat.

⚠️ Important Departure Note

When scheduling your outbound trip from Lombok after trekking, make sure the time aligns with your trek itinerary. This prevents issues like:

  • Rushing to the airport
  • Missing your flight
  • Unnecessary stress after the trek
