Mt Rinjani – Trek to the Heart of Lombok’s Volcano
Standing at an elevation of 3726m, Mt Rinjani is the second highest volcano in Indonesia, second only to Mount Kerinci on Sumatra. While the journey to the summit is challenging, it promises breathtaking views from both the crater rim and the summit. The best time to trek Mt Rinjani is during the dry season, which typically runs from April to November.
The Summit Experience
The summit push on Mount Rinjani begins in the quiet hours before dawn. Setting off from the crater rim under a sky full of stars, trekkers make their way slowly up the steep volcanic slopes, guided by headlamps and the steady rhythm of each step.
The final ascent is both challenging and rewarding. The loose volcanic sand demands patience and persistence, but with every step upward, the horizon begins to glow with the first light of day. As the sun rises, the landscape unfolds in every direction – the vast caldera and the turquoise waters of Segara Anak below, and a little cone-shaped Gunung Agung in Bali hanging in the horizon!
