Our adventure begins at 7am.
Our team of guides and porters will pick you up at your hotel location. Our first stop is at Rinjani Trekking Center Senaru (RTC). At the RTC we will do an online check-in and pick up our tickets to Rinjani National Park. You will need to provide your passport for the online check-in at this time. After a brief medical check at the RTC we will begin our trek. The trek from Senaru offers a beautiful shaded hike through the protected forest of Rinjani National Park.
The forest is filled with the sound of beautiful birds and if we’re lucky we could encounter deer and other wildlife. Your lunch will be prepared for you at post #2, roughly 3 hours after we begin our trek. Once you have reached post #3 you will be provided with an amazing panoramic view of Bali, Mt. Agung, and the 3 famous Gilis. The total time to reach the crater rim is normally 6 hours. Once you reach the crater rim campsite your tents will be already prepared for you by our team of porters.

It will still be in the afternoon when you arrive at the crater rim and our team will prepare you a snack as you enjoy the amazing views of Senaru Crater Rim. Crater Rim Senaru provides a breathtaking sunset as you enjoy your dinner.
This section of the climb begins to become more steep and provides a beautiful panoramic view of Sembalun village. Arriving at the crater rim campsite around 4pm your tents will be ready for you to have a short rest while our porters prepare an afternoon snack for you. Dinner will be ready at 6:30 and after that you can rest for the summit trek the following morning.
