FAQ

What tips are suggested ?

A good fitness is needed to complete this climbing program, a beginner with above average fitness is usually able to climb up to the edge of the crater (camp area), but in addition to excellent stamina to get to the top in need also the spirit and a strong desire, as the 1000m rise from the Sembalun crater is so challenging, steep, and loose, the past climbing experience is very important.

How will be the hiking like ?

Hiking in the mountain Rinjani will start from the village of Sembalun with an altitude of 1110m or from the village of Senaru 600 m above sea level. The Sembalun route with large and long grasslands, with relatively hot temperatures because it is under blistering sun (30-40 degrees Celsius). So you will need a sun block and a headgear, you will also go through steep, slippery, sandy, rocky and tropical jungle and some even have slopes up to 50 degrees, which makes your journey more challenging. Not only that, climb from Sembalun crater to summit other than cold, the path is also sandy with an extreme slope that makes two steps up one step down, in certain seasons sometimes the wind is also strong that makes the temperature closer to the freezing point. But along the way you will be spoiled with incredible scenery and the sound of birds singing, monkeys that seemed to wait in some places down from the summits and lakes.

What's the difference between Senaru route and the Sembalun route ?

The Senaru route is a climbing route starting at 600m and going through tropical rain forest, which is certainly not hot, but it will do a 2000m high rise. This route is usually used for Senaru crater hot spring and lake program without climbing the summit. While the Sembalun route is an irregular route that starts at an altitude of 1.100m through a vast meadow and nice scenery along the way, and if you want to get to the summit, this road is the choice because on the second day you can climb the summit of Rinjani mountain, but this route is a little hot because it has to cross the meadow.
