You will hike through the dense virgin rainforest that blankets the lower slopes of Mount Rinjani. Breaking the tree line in the afternoon, you’ll follow a grassy ridge all the way to the Senaru Crater Rim.

On a clear day, you can see three of the popular Gili Islands to the West ( Gili Trawangan, Meno, and Air ), scattered across the shimmering waters of the Lombok Strait. Behind these three small islands, Bali’s Mount Agung sits high above the horizon..

Primary goals of the 2-day Crater Rim Senaru – Rinjani Trekking.

  • Reach the Senaru Crater Rim in a single day. This is the main objective. The trek requires a sustained, steep uphill climb of approximately 6 to 8 hours through the tropical rainforest to reach the campsite on the rim at 2,641 meters.
  • Experience breathtaking panoramic views. From the crater rim, you will be rewarded with sweeping vistas of Lake Segara Anak, the Gunung Baru Jari volcano cone within the caldera, the Gili Islands, and even Mount Agung in Bali on a clear day.
  • Witness the stunning sunset and sunrise. A major highlight of camping overnight on the rim is enjoying the changing colors of the sky as the sun sets over the distant islands and rises over the lake.
  • Test your physical limits. This condensed schedule requires a good level of fitness and is considered challenging, even for experienced hikers. The rapid ascent and descent in just two days is a rigorous physical test.
  • Return to Senaru village via the same route. The second day is dedicated to a 5- to 6-hour descent back down the mountain through the rainforest to the starting point in Senaru.
