The Ultimate Traverse

Our 3 Days 2 Nights expedition is our most highly sought-after package, offering a comprehensive and awe-inspiring traverse of Mount Rinjani. You will conquer the soaring 3,726-meter summit, descend into the ancient caldera to camp by the sacred Segara Anak Lake, and rejuvenate in natural volcanic hot springs.

Starting from the expansive savannas of Sembalun and concluding in the dense tropical rainforests of Senaru, this route exposes you to the mountain's dramatically changing ecosystems. Backed by Grand Rinjani's premium service—featuring luxury tents, thick sleeping mats, and a dedicated culinary team—this is the definitive way to experience Indonesia's most beautiful volcano.

Detailed Itinerary

Day 1: Through the Golden Savanna

Sembalun Village (1,156m) → Sembalun Crater Rim (2,639m)

After a comfortable transfer from your hotel to Sembalun and a medical check at the Rinjani Trekking Center, your expedition begins. The first day consists of a gradual ascent through vast, open grasslands before a steep climb to your first campsite.

  • 08:00 AM: Commence trekking through the savanna to Pos 1 (1,300m) and Pos 2 (1,500m).
  • 12:00 PM: Arrive at Pos 3 (1,800m) for a gourmet hot lunch prepared by our mountain chefs.
  • 01:30 PM: Ascend the challenging "Hills of Regret," navigating steep, zigzagging trails.
  • 05:00 PM: Arrive at Sembalun Crater Rim. Your luxury campsite is ready. Enjoy sunset views over the lake and a hearty dinner.

Day 2: The Summit, The Lake & Hot Springs

Rim → Summit (3,726m) → Lake (2,000m) → Senaru Rim (2,641m)

This is the most demanding and rewarding day. You will summit Rinjani at sunrise, descend into the crater for a rejuvenating soak in the hot springs, and climb back up to the opposite rim for your second night.

  • 02:00 AM: Wake up for hot drinks and a light pre-summit breakfast.
  • 02:30 AM: Begin the summit attack through loose volcanic scree.
  • 06:00 AM: Reach the Summit (3,726m) for a spectacular sunrise over the Indonesian archipelago.

  • 01:00 PM: Lunch by the lake. Spend the afternoon soaking your muscles in the natural therapeutic hot springs.
  • 03:30 PM: Ascend the rocky trail to the Senaru Crater Rim (2,641m) to camp under the stars with views of Mount Barujari.

Day 3: The Ancient Rainforest

Senaru Crater Rim (2,641m) → Senaru Village (601m)

After watching your final mountain sunrise, you will descend through the shaded, mystical tropical rainforests of Senaru, offering a stark contrast to the open savannas of day one.

  • 06:30 AM: Enjoy a luxurious breakfast while taking in the morning views of the crater lake.
  • 08:00 AM: Begin the long descent through the thick, ancient rainforests. Keep an eye out for the rare black ebony leaf monkey (Lutung).
