We recommend spending one night in Senaru beforehand so you can begin the hike feeling rested and prepared. This option includes a guided visit to Senaru’s two beautiful waterfalls on arrival day, followed by an overnight stay at our family-run homestay, offering a warm welcome and an authentic local experience before your Rinjani adventure begins.
Safety & Support
Your trek is led by experienced, licensed local guides, supported by porters who carry camping equipment and supplies. We maintain a steady pace, take regular rest breaks, and adapt the trek to suit the group’s abilities. Your safety and wellbeing are our priority at all times. Our team is trained in mountain safety and first aid, ensuring you are well supported throughout your Mount Rinjani experience.

Day
1
Sembalun Crater Rim Camp
An early morning transfer takes you to Sembalun, where your Mount Rinjani trek begins. The first stage of the hike takes approximately 6–7 hours at a steady, manageable pace, guided by our experienced team across open grasslands to the Sembalun crater rim.
Once at camp, there’s plenty of time to rest, enjoy a warm meal, and take in the spectacular sunset views over Segara Anak Lake. An early night allows you to relax and prepare for the following day.
Day
2
Summit & Descent
You’ll receive a gentle wake-up call around 2:30 am for those who wish to trek the summit of Mount Rinjani (3,726 m). The climb takes around 2–3 hours and is done slowly and safely with your guide. The terrain can be steep and loose, so going at your own pace is encouraged.
If you prefer not to summit, you’re very welcome to remain at camp and rest, enjoying the peaceful mountain surroundings.
Summit climbers are rewarded with a stunning sunrise and panoramic views stretching from Bali to the west and Sumbawa to the east. After returning to camp around 8:30 am, enjoy breakfast and a relaxed rest before descending back to Sembalun village. Your trek finishes around 4pm where your driver will be waiting to transfer you onward to Senaru, Bangsal, Senggigi, or Mataram.
