Rinjani Second Summit – Trekking Mount Rinjani
The Mount Rinjani 2 Days / 1 Night Senaru Crater Rim Trek is one of the most popular trekking experiences in Lombok, offering the perfect introduction to the breathtaking beauty of Mount Rinjani National Park without the demanding climb to the summit. Designed for travelers with limited time, beginners, and nature enthusiasts, this adventure delivers stunning mountain scenery, an unforgettable camping experience, and some of the most spectacular viewpoints in Indonesia.
Beginning and ending in the traditional Senaru Village, this trek follows a beautiful rainforest trail rich with tropical flora, towering trees, and the chance to encounter the famous black monkeys (Ebony Leaf Monkeys) that inhabit the national park. Along the way, you’ll enjoy several rest stops where you can relax while taking in the peaceful atmosphere of Rinjani’s pristine wilderness.
The highlight of the journey is reaching the magnificent Senaru Crater Rim (2,641 meters). From this incredible viewpoint, you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views overlooking the turquoise waters of Segara Anak Lake, the active Mount Barujari Volcano, the towering summit of Mount Rinjani (3,726 m), and the surrounding mountains that create one of Indonesia’s most iconic volcanic landscapes.
As the afternoon light fades, experience one of the most unforgettable sunsets in Lombok before enjoying a freshly prepared dinner cooked by your trekking team. Spend the night camping above the clouds beneath a sky filled with countless stars, surrounded by the peaceful silence of the mountains. Wake early the following morning to witness a magical sunrise illuminating the crater lake, volcanic peaks, and the island below—an experience that will remain with you long after your adventure ends.
