4D3N Rinjani Mountain Trekking
Summit & Lake via Sembalun – Torean
The 4D3N Rinjani Mountain Trekking package is our most complete and immersive Mount Rinjani experience. Unlike the standard Senaru descent, the Torean route offers a more adventurous exit through pristine tropical rainforest, hidden waterfalls (including Penimbungan Waterfall), and natural hot springs — with significantly fewer crowds.
This itinerary delivers:
- Sunrise at the summit (3,726 m) — the iconic Rinjani moment
- A full day at Segara Anak Lake — swim, fish, and explore hot springs
- Lakeside camping with breathtaking crater views
- Torean rainforest descent — lush jungle, river crossings, and waterfalls
- A quieter, off-the-beaten-path exit
- A more relaxed pace over four days, allowing you to fully absorb every moment

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.
