Detailed Itinerary
Our private driver will pick you up from any location in Lombok (Lombok International Airport, Senggigi, Mataram, Kuta, or Bangsal Harbor) and transfer you directly to our base in Sembalun.
- Check-in at your hotel/homestay in Sembalun
- Meet your licensed Rinjani guide for a comprehensive safety briefing, medical check-up registration, and gear inspection
- Dinner and overnight rest
Your adventure begins in the cool morning air of Sembalun Village (1,156 m). After a light breakfast and final briefing, you set foot on the trail through iconic savanna grasslands with panoramic views of Mount Rinjani.
The terrain starts gently as you pass Pos 1 and Pos 2. After Pos 3 (Pada Balong), the real ascent begins. By late afternoon you reach Plawangan Sembalun Crater Rim (2,639 m) — your campsite for the night. Enjoy one of the most spectacular sunset views in Indonesia over Segara Anak Lake and Gunung Baru.

This is the highlight of your journey. Wake at 01:30 under a canopy of stars. After hot coffee and a light snack, begin the legendary summit push — a steep climb over volcanic scree in the dark.
Reach the true summit at 3,726 m just as the sun rises — a 360° panorama from Bali’s Mount Agung to Sumbawa. After celebrations, descend to camp for breakfast, then continue down into the crater to Segara Anak Lake (2,008 m).
