DAY-1
Our adventure begins at 7am.Our team of guides and porters will pick you up at your hotel location.Our first stop is The Rinjani Trekking Center(RTC) located in Sembalun village,a 1 hour drive from Senaru Village. At the RTC we will do an online check-in and pick up our tickets to Rinjani National Park. You will need to provide your passport for the online check-in at this time.After a brief medical check at the RTC we will begin our trek.The first part of our journey begins at the entrance to Rinjani National Park where we will hike to post #1,normally this takes around 2 hours.During these first 2 hours we will be walking among the homes and farms of the local Sasak people and then into a spacious savannah.At post #1 we will take a short break.Continuing on to post #2 usually takes 45 minutes and once we arrive at post #2 we will take a break for lunch prepared by our porters. After lunch we will continue to post #3, a 1 hour walk.Once we have arrived at post #3 we are around 3 hours away from the crater rim campsite where you will sleep.This section of the climb begins to become more steep and provides a beautiful panoramic view
of Sembalun village. Arriving at the crater rim campsite around 4pm your tents will be ready for you to have a short rest while our porters prepare an afternoon snack for you.Dinner will be ready at 6:30 and after that you can rest for the summit trek the following morning.

Day 2 – Summit
We will wake up at 1:30 in the morning with coffee or tea and a light breakfast.After you have eaten we will begin the trek to the summit for sunrise.Normally the trek to the summit takes around 3 hours depending on how fast we go. We will be trekking in the dark so it’s important to have a flashlight for this section. The trek to the summit has many sections that are sand and gravel and some of the most tiring of the trek but our guides will be with you the whole way to help you.During this time you will be rewarded with a beautiful panoramic view of Bali, Sumbawa,and all of Lombok and the Gilis.Once we’ve reached the summit of Mt.Rinjani at 3,726masl we will take time for a short break and photos.Upon returning to the crater rim
campsite after the summit our porters will have breakfast prepared and waiting for you. After breakfast we will begin the journey back down to Sembalun Village.
