Arrival (Day 0):
We will pick you up from Kuta Lombok, Lombok Airport, Mataram, Senggigi, Bangsal, or any other location within Lombok Island and transfer you to Tetebatu. Upon checking into your hotel in Tetebatu Lombok, you’ll meet with us. If time permits, we will take you on a guided tour to a waterfall and rice field as a warm-up before your Mount Rinjani climb the following day. Afterwards, you’ll return to the hotel for dinner and an overnight stay.
Day 1 Trekking:
The journey begins at 7:00 am at the entrance of Timbanuh National Park, where visitors are encouraged to plant trees before crossing the footpath and the river to reach checkpoint one. In the jungle, one can observe various types of wood and moss, as well as wild vegetables that can be cooked naturally. After a three-hour trek, we arrive at checkpoint two, where we take a one-hour lunch break. The expedition then continues towards checkpoint three (Cemara Nunggala) for another two hours, where we set up camp. Here, we rest for 45 minutes, enjoying snacks and fruit while taking in the savanna views of Mount Rinjani. Once rested, our guide leads us through the savanna to Pelawangan Timbanuh at an elevation of 2,680 meters. The 45-minute walk is rewarded with a stunning sunset, views of Segara Anak Lake, the new volcano, and the Sumbawa islands, before we descend back to the campsite for dinner and sleep in tents.
Day 2 Trekking:
Rising at 3:30 am for a continental breakfast of bread with coffee, tea, or milk, followed by a 4:00 am start to climb the southern peak, a 2-hour journey to 3,260 meters above sea level (with the highest accessible point at 3,260 meters due to the trail to the second summit being damaged after the earthquake in July 2018). At the peak, one can savor the views of Segara Anak Lake, the grand summit at 3,726 meters, the sunrise cresting over Mount Rinjani, and the Sumbawa islands, before descending to basecamp in 1.5 hours for rest and a second breakfast.
After completing breakfast and a sufficient rest, we will return to (pos 2) for 1.5 hours and then proceed to (pos 1) for breaks and lunch. Post-lunch, we will continue down to Timbanuh, and our car will take us back to the hotel in Tetebatu. Once we have showered and changed clothes, we will escort you to your next destination on the island of Lombok.
