Day 1 Ascent:
Get up at 6:00 and have breakfast. After that, we will visit the Mount Rinjani National Park office in Sembalun to register.
The hike starts from Sembalun village around 8:00 am. We start with a light hike through open meadows. After about 2 hours of walking, we will reach post 1 (1300m), and 40 minutes to post 2 (1500m). We will continue to Pos 3 (1800m) and take a break for lunch here.
After lunch and rest, we will continue our journey to Pelawangan Sembalun (2639m). It takes 3 hours due to climbing climbing tracks which are uphill but safe for tourists. We stay at the edge of the crater or Plawangan Sembalun, from this place you can enjoy views of the sunset and sunrise as well as Lake Segara Anak.
Day 2 Climbing:
Get up around 2:30 am, Before leaving you will be served hot drinks and a light breakfast (toast). We will start climbing to the top of Rinjani at 3:00 am.
The beginning of the ascent is quite heavy because it is sandy and uphill, then after reaching the top of the trail, it is continued with a fairly easy but longer journey, one hour before reaching the top, the path is sandy, so it requires patience and strong determination to continue the journey. the sandy path makes footsteps feel heavy with added energy. It’s been drained because it’s been walking for 2 hours from the campsite.
At 6:00 am We will reach the summit (3726 m) with a beautiful sunrise, and incredible views of Lombok island, Bali island, Sumbawa island, and Lake Segara Anak.
After being satisfied with taking pictures by capturing stunning natural portraits, we will go down to Plawangan Sembalun and it takes about 2 hours, rest and breakfast here. Then we will continue down to Segara Anak Lake for 3 hours.
Stop by the lake to rest. Here we can enjoy the view of the lake, and swim in the lake. Soaking in hot water can provide relief from traveling aches and pains and is widely known for its natural healing powers. Porters will prepare lunch, dinner and sleep in a tent on the lake side (2000 m).
Day 3 Trekking:
After lunch, we will leave the lake and head to Plawangan Torean for 3-4 hours past rivers and waterfalls. Plawangan Torean has the most spectacular view of the waterfall. After dinner rest in the tent.
