MOUNT Rinjani Lombok

THE ULTIMATE TREKKING ADVENTURE

#WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT RINJANI LOMBOK

Mount Rinjani, the second-largest volcano in Indonesia, is a must-visit destination for adventure seekers. With its breathtaking views, lush forests, and cascading waterfalls, Rinjani Lombok offers an unparalleled trekking experience.

One of the highlights of Rinjani is Segara Anak Lake, a stunning crescent-shaped lake located within the crater. This sulfuric lake sits 600 meters below the crater rim and spans approximately 6 km across at its widest point. Rising from the lake is Mount Baru, a small yet active volcano formed by eruptions in the 1990s.

Segara Anak holds deep spiritual meaning for local communities. Each year, the Balinese perform the Pekelan Ceremony, offering jewelry to the mountain spirit. Likewise, the Wetu Telu people gather to pray on full moon nights, embracing the sacred atmosphere of this natural wonder.

The Lombok Rinjani Trek

A CHALLENGE WORTH TAKING

The Lombok Rinjani Trek is not for the faint-hearted. It requires endurance, proper trekking equipment, and a spirit for adventure. Three key insights to know:

  • Steep & slippery trails
  • Unpredictable weather (storms, strong winds, and frosty nights
  • Intense sun exposure during the day

Proper preparation is key to a successful trek. Ensuring you have warm clothing, windproof gear, and a reliable guide will make your experience safer and more enjoyable.

VOLCANIC HAZARDS: STAYING SAFE ON RINJANI LOMBOK

While Mount Rinjani has not erupted in recent history, Mount Baru (2,351m) remains active, with its last major eruption occurring in 1994. Always check local advisories, park notice boards, and consult your trekking guide for the latest safety updates before your trek.
