Day 1: Senaru Trekking Center – POS 1 (601 masl) – POS 2 (1,500 masl) – POS 3 (2,000 masl) – Senaru Crater Rim (2,641)  

Waking up at 6:00 a.m. then having breakfast, our driver will pick you up at 7:00 or you can also walk about 10 minutes to Rinjani Trekking Center (RTC) to register. From RTC, you will start walking the moderate concreate trail for roughly 30 minutes up to the main gate of Mount Rinjani National Park. Along the way uphill, you will witness coffee and cacao plantations and a variety of trees shading the paths. At the main gate, you can take a few minutes break and recharge your stamina with some biscuits. On your way to POST 1 (915 masl) which takes 1 hour, you will feel the vibes of walking in the lush tropical rainforest enriched with various large trees and wild animals. After that, you will continue walking up to POST 2 (1,500 masl) at where you can stretch your muscles and relax while waiting for your lunch to be served. In the meantime, you can have some drinks, biscuits, and fruits while enjoying the solitude of being surrounded by the forest. After lunch, you will continue walking for about 2 hours to get to POS 3 (2,000 masl) where some parts of the area are shaded with gigantic pandan trees that make the trail look more exotic. As you reach POST 3, you will have to get ready to walk the steepest trail through several hills leading up to the crater rim and basecamp. This normally takes up 2 hours depending on your walking speed. At Senaru crater rim (2,641), you will spend the night. Before nightfall, you will get to see the breathtaking views as far as eyes can see: the great Mount Rinjani along with a range of exotic hills surrounding the lake underneath. As it gets darker, you will be welcomed by a thousand of stars sparkling overhead. Further, the milky way can fully be seen from 1:00 a.m. – 3:00 a.m. in the morning.

Day 2: Senaru Crater Rim (2,641 masl) – Senaru Village (601 masl)

Waking up at 6:00-ish a.m. or earlier in order to be able to enjoy the sunrise is one of the must-do activities. Therefore, we hope that you capture lots of incredible memories on your last day to bring home. At 9:00 a.m. after breakfast, you will walk the same trails back to Senaru village which commonly takes 5 to 6 hours. Halfway descending to the village, your porters will prepare some lunch at POST 2. From POST 2 to the village, it takes around 2 and half hours. At the end of your hike, you will finally get to say goodbye to your guides and porters for accompanying and assisting you throughout your whole journey on Mount Rinjani. Lastly, our driver will take you to your next destination within Lombok Island.
