Address - Sembalun Lawang, Sembalun, Lombok Timur, Nusa Tenggara Barat, Indonesia Ambiance/Facilities - mountain side, waterfall, nature Highlights - It was a great adventure walking from the hillside towards waterfall. The shortcut is a bit extreme where we need to pass by some dark cage with uneven steps that you may be afraid of hurting yourself. Water current is also quite high and deep. We don't dare to go in even though it's clean. Vibe here also quite scary where they believe there is "sacred" ceremony held in the mountain on certain period. Avg. Price per Person - $30 transport fee Rating - ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Those who love to hike and adventure may consider to come here. #holiday #adventure #mountain #waterfall #trip #indonesia #travel Photography #lombok

Mount Rinjani, the second-tallest volcano in Indonesia, stands 3,726 meters tall and dominates the scenery on the island of Lombok. It's also one of the island's most active volcanoes. This is one of the best hikes in the country, but it is not for the faint of heart. The trip to the summit and back takes three or four days, and there are starting sites in each of the twenty-odd settlements that dot the mountain's perimeter. The Segara Anak, a blue crater lake shaped like a crescent, is the headline attraction at the summit, with beautiful woodland views and waterfalls along the way. #hiking#nationalpark#beautifulsunsets#naturalwonders#summervacation#hikingtrails#urbanexplorer

Joined for 3 days Rinjani hike start off by picking up from hotel and reach Sembalun village for registration and proceed to Entrace to start of the hike. Day 1 awarded with low elevation view that's not as drastic as the next day with elevation gain of 1,539m with 10km distance and camp in Sembalun Crater Rim . Day 2 will be the longest and toughest hike as it started off with late midnight to ascend to peak catch sunrise elevation gain of 1539m. Then go back to campsite and descend to crater only to ascend again to another crater rim that we will stay for a night which is Senaru Crater Rim down and up for 6040m. We barely reach just before sunset. Ofcoz this is also the most rewarding journey with best view both ascending into peak and descending into crater. On the last day 3, final descend of 2040m and reach Senaru gate. Overall the trip is consider tough and one can consider break in into 4 days instead but will have to bear to stay in campsite with no toilet and shower. #indonesiatrip #rinjani

I hike few mountains before, but never this difficult. 5 of us, we didn't train for it. Let's just say some of us took longer than the others climbing up. Luckily day job as a manual labourer and puts me much more physically fit to climb. The trip on the first day starts from noon to evening where you reach the base camp for the sunset. Few hours later at 2am, you start the hike of your life in the darkness. Putting all four of your limbs to hike, water wasn't enough. That moment is physical and mental push for your life to reach the peak by sunrise. We didn't reach by sunrise. First guy to the last guy that reach the peak was 3h apart. It's worth it to accomplish that climb. Also you have to go back down which is another 1-2h walk #treking #hiking #mountrinjani

My visit to Sembalun in Lombok was a magical experience, marked by the breathtaking views of Mount Rinjani from sunrise to sunset. I woke up early to witness the first light, as soft hues of pink and orange painted the sky, casting a warm glow over the mountain's peak. Throughout the day, the colors shifted dramatically; the vibrant greens of the surrounding landscape contrasted beautifully with Rinjani's rugged slopes. As the sun set, the mountain was enveloped in deep shades of purple and gold, creating a stunning finale to a perfect day in paradise. #traveldiaries #indonesiatrip #lombok #indonesia

fantastic view at the senaru crater . did a 2 day 1 night hike with jou trekking. they provide basic accomdation the day before the hike. they will cook all meals for you during the hike and also set up tents at the crater. I would recommend to book the accommodation hill side(rinjani lodge) on your own if you want nicer accomodation. Getting There - signed up this trip with jou trekking and pick up was arranged directly from airport to senaru village the day before the hike. Attractions - my rinjani Hotels - rinjani lodge at senaru Food & Restaurants - Shopping -

Don't forget, it's an active volcano. Before climbing, you must know that Mount Rinjani is still an active volcano, and the small volcano in the volcanic lake is still smoking and restless. In the 20th century, the volcano erupted four times, with the most recent one in 2018. However, with the development of modern technology, volcanic activity is now being monitored in real time. And with the improvement of disaster prevention and emergency response mechanisms, hiking on the volcano is now less dangerous. Don't underestimate it, prepare your physical strength. Linjiani volcano is suitable for light hiking. Compared with other peaks, it is relatively easy and safe, but you still need to understand and respect this great mountain and be prepared for the hardships. You will pass through loose gravel, steep and slippery trails, sharp turns, knife-like winds... and the most difficult part - going down the mountain. Hiking is not about watching the sunrise from the mountaintop or breaking someone else's record, it's about experiencing it within your ability, and nature will reveal its true beauty. Don't try to go it alone. Organized hiking is by far the easiest, safest, and most popular way to climb Mount Rinjani. Solo hiking is highly discouraged as the danger level is very high. Rinjani National Park requires hikers to hire certified guides and porters (people who carry luggage and supplies for tourists) for the climb. Not reaching the summit is also completely fine. Remember, even if you're not at the mountaintop, the sun will still rise. Don't be ashamed to say "no" to a mountaintop sunrise, it depends on your own situation. You should know that the most difficult and steep part is the last 4 kilometers, which takes about 4 hours. Reaching the summit to see the sunrise means waking up at 2am, hiking for 4 hours in pitch darkness and extreme cold, with temperatures around 0 degrees at the summit. Moreover, looking at the three-dimensional volcano map, the road to the mountain ridge even has a 70-degree steep slope, which is an extraordinary test of physical and mental strength. Therefore, please remember: safety first, and it's completely okay not to reach the summit! Take away the garbage, eco-travel. As more and more people hike to the Linjani volcano, we don't want this sacred mountain to be littered everywhere. Everyone should travel responsibly! It is recommended to carry a self-sealing bag with you to take your personal garbage away, and make sure that the travel company you choose can assist in taking away the garbage. If the travel company or porter cannot do so, it is recommended not to travel with them. Currently, the garbage removal work on the mountain is done by non-profit organizations and tourism companies. Opening hours Linjiani volcano opening hours: April to December every year, with May to October being the best season. This is the dry season in the southern hemisphere with less rain. January to March is the rainy season, and trekking during this time is not only dangerous, but rock and mudslides are also common. To ensure safety, do not secretly climb the mountain with local unregulated small companies during the closure period.
