This package is well-suited for individuals with a good level of fitness.

View at Crater rim Tetebatu

Gunung Kondo in Mount Rinjani National Park area at an altitude of 2.957 meters above sea level is located in -8.453353, 116.410269 including in rural areas Tetebatu, Sikur district, East Lombok, from there we can see a beautiful view over the Segara Anak lake, Mount Baru Jari (new volcano) and the summit of Mount Rinjani.

The Itinerary:
Arrival Day: Upon your arrival at Lombok Island, we will pick you up and provide a transfer to Tetebatu Village, which is a 2–3-hour drive in an air-conditioned private car. After checking into your hotel in Tetebatu, you will meet your guide who will brief you on the route details and your program, after which you will have free time at your leisure.

Day 1 Trek: After breakfast at the hotel, we will begin our ascent to the Tetebatu crater rim. Starting from Tetebatu Village at an altitude of 700 meters above sea level, we will drive to the starting point in the Monkey Forest, which is at 800 meters. This forest attraction in Tetebatu is home to many monkeys, and from here, we can get a clear view of Mount Rinjani, with the Tetebatu crater rim as our destination.

After a 30-minute walk from Monkey Forest, we enter a dense forest where the path is new and natural, feeling cool as the sun is obscured by thick leaves. After trekking for 1 hour and 30 minutes, we reach our first rest stop, known as Pondok Belanda or Netherlands Huts, which may have been used by the Dutch as a resting point before continuing their trek to Gunung Kondo or Segara Anak Lake.

Following a break, we resumed our journey and within 15 minutes, we entered the meadow. From here, we could see Tetebatu village far behind us, with Mount Rinjani standing tall on our right. An hour and a half after leaving Pondok Belanda, we arrived at Post Two for lunch and a rest.

Following lunch and a sufficient break, we will resume our trek to the Tetebatu crater rim. The path is rather steep, so under normal conditions, it will take us about two hours to reach the crater rim of Tetebatu. Here, we will pitch our tent to rest, dine, and spend the night, all while enjoying the stunning views of Segara Anak Lake, the new volcano, Mount Agung in Bali and the peak of Rinjani piercing the clouds.

Day 2 Trek: Wake up early at 4:00 am for a light breakfast with a hot drink, and by 4:30 am, we will guide you on a 1.5-hour climb to the summit of Gunung Kondo, which stands at 2.957 meters. We aim to reach the peak by sunrise to enjoy the panoramic views and take a rest. At 7:00 am, we will begin our descent to the basecamp and then continue to the village for 5 hours. Upon arrival, enjoy lunch and a refreshing shower at our hotel. Afterwards, we will transfer you to your next destination on Lombok Island, concluding your trip with us.
