Day 1: Senaru / Sembalun – Sembalun Village – Sembalun Crater Rim
Start your day with breakfast and a convenient pick-up from your hotel in Senaru or Sembalun, followed by a scenic one-hour drive to Sembalun Village. Upon arrival, register at the Rinjani Information Centre (RIC) and begin your 2-hour trek through the open savanna to POS-1 (1,300 metres).
After a quick 5–10 minute breather, hike for another hour to reach POS-2 (1,500 metres). Following a short break, continue ascending for one more hour to POS-3 (1,800 metres).
At POS-3, you will take a well-deserved 2-hour break to refuel with a freshly prepared lunch and your choice of hot drink—including tea, coffee, hot chocolate, or lemon tea. Once rested, embark on a 3-hour climb to the Sembalun Crater Rim (2,639 metres), where you will camp for the night. Unwind at the rim and soak in breathtaking panoramic views of the sunset, Lake Segara Anak, and northern Lombok.
Day 2: Summit Attack – Sembalun Crater Rim – Sembalun Village
Wake up at 1:30 AM to a warm cup of coffee or tea and a light breakfast to fuel your morning climb. Once ready, set off under the stars for your summit ascent in time for sunrise.
The climb to the peak typically takes around 3 hours, depending on your pace. Since you will be hiking in the dark, a headlamp or torch is essential for this stage. The final stretch features steep volcanic sand and gravel—the most challenging part of the expedition—but our experienced Em Adventure guides will be right beside you the entire way to support and motivate you.
Standing atop the summit of Mount Rinjani (3,726 metres), you will be rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views spanning Bali, Sumbawa, the Gili Islands, and all of Lombok. Take a well-earned break at the peak to celebrate and capture unforgettable sunrise photos.
After descending back to the crater rim campsite, our porters will have a freshly prepared hot breakfast waiting for you. Once you have eaten and rested, pack up and begin your journey back down to Sembalun Village.
