Description

CONQUER RINJANI'S SUMMIT IN 2 DAYS Mount Rinjani (3,726m) is Indonesia's second-highest volcano and one of Southeast Asia's most spectacular treks. This intensive 2-day expedition takes you straight to the summit via the scenic Sembalun route—perfect for adventurers with limited time but maximum ambition. WHY THE SEMBALUN ROUTE? The Sembalun trail offers stunning savanna landscapes with 360° views from the start. Unlike forested routes, you'll trek through golden grasslands dotted with wildflowers, providing unobstructed vistas that photographers love. DAY 1: SEMBALUN VILLAGE TO CRATER RIM (7-8 hours) After morning hotel pickup, we transfer you to Sembalun Village (1,100m) where your adventure begins. The trail winds upward through three checkpoints (Pos 1, 2, 3), with lunch at Pos 3 (1,800m). The final push to Crater Rim Sembalun (2,639m) rewards you with Indonesia's most spectacular sunset—watching the sky ignite over turquoise Segara Anak Lake while clouds drift beneath your feet. After dinner, your guide briefs you on tomorrow's summit strategy. DAY 2: SUMMIT PUSH & DESCENT (8-10 hours) 2:00 AM wake-up with hot coffee. You'll climb through darkness with headlamps, reaching the summit as the sun breaks over the horizon. From Rinjani's peak, the entire archipelago unfolds—Lombok, the Gili Islands, Bali's Mount Agung, and Sumbawa's volcanoes. After summit photos and celebration, descend to Crater Rim for breakfast, then continue through the savanna to Sembalun Village where transport returns you to your hotel. WHAT MAKES OKE RINJANI DIFFERENT? ✓ Small groups (max 8 trekkers per guide) ✓ Certified mountain guides with excellent English ✓ Fresh meals cooked on the mountain (not pre-packaged) ✓ Quality camping gear (warm sleeping bags rated for altitude) ✓ Porters carry all equipment—you only need a daypack ✓ Free pre-trek accommodation at our Senaru hostel ✓ Comprehensive safety protocols PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS This trek is challenging but achievable for anyone with good fitness. No technical climbing skills needed, but be comfortable hiking 7-10 hours daily with elevation gain. The summit involves scrambling over loose volcanic rock at altitude. We recommend: - Regular cardio exercise 4-6 weeks before - Practice hikes with a daypack - Altitude preparation if coming from sea level BEST TIME TO TREK April-December (dry season) offers optimal conditions: - April-May: Fewer crowds, excellent weather - July-August: Peak season (book early) - September-October: Sweet spot—great conditions, fewer hikers - November-December: End of season Park closes January-March due to monsoon. WHAT TO EXPECT Temperatures drop to 5-10°C at night, near freezing at summit. Bring warm layers, windproof jacket, headlamp, and hiking boots. The summit push is physically demanding but the sunrise view makes every step worthwhile. Ready for Indonesia's most rewarding summit trek?
