Day 1 – Trek from Senaru Village to Senaru Crater Rim (2,641 m)

Your adventure begins in the peaceful mountain village of Senaru, the main gateway to Mount Rinjani National Park. Today’s trek takes you through dense tropical rainforest filled with towering trees, birds, and the chance to spot the rare Lombok ebony leaf monkey. The trail is mostly shaded but steadily climbs higher throughout the day, with the final section becoming steeper and more rocky as you approach the crater rim.

07:00 AM – Registration & Trek Start
Arrive at the Senaru Trek Center to register for the trek and meet your guide and porters. After a short briefing, the hike begins along a trail that passes through local farmland before entering the lush rainforest.

09:00 AM – Rest Stop at POS 1 (915 m)
Take a short break beneath the cool forest canopy. Enjoy the fresh mountain air while your guide prepares drinking water and light snacks.

11:00 AM – Break at POS 2 (1,500 m)
Continue hiking deeper into the rainforest until reaching POS 2. This is a good place to rest, hydrate, and enjoy a quick snack before continuing the climb.

12:00 PM – Lunch at POS 3 / Mondokan Lolak (2,000 m)
Arrive at POS 3 where your porters will prepare a freshly cooked lunch. Relax for about 1–1.5 hours while enjoying fruit, hot drinks, and the peaceful jungle surroundings.

01:30 PM – Begin the Final Ascent to the Crater Rim
After lunch, the trail becomes steeper and more challenging. Tree roots, rocky paths, and narrow turns mark this final section. Your guide will set a comfortable pace with regular breaks every 30–45 minutes. As you climb higher, the air becomes cooler and the forest gradually opens to reveal glimpses of the massive Rinjani caldera.

03:30 – 04:00 PM – Arrival at Senaru Crater Rim (2,641 m)
Congratulations! You’ve reached the spectacular Plawangan Senaru Crater Rim, your campsite for the night.

From here you’ll enjoy one of the most breathtaking views on Mount Rinjani:

• The turquoise waters of Segara Anak Lake far below

• The active volcanic cone of Mount Baru Jari rising from the lake

• On clear days, the distant silhouette of Mount Agung in Bali

After taking photos and enjoying the sunset, your team will prepare dinner. Spend the evening relaxing at camp and enjoy a magical night under a sky full of stars.

Day two of the trek brings you deeper into the volcanic landscape of Mount Rinjani. After enjoying the sunrise from the crater rim, the journey continues with a descent to the famous Segara Anak Lake before climbing again to the peaceful campsite at Propok.

Morning at the Crater Rim

The day begins early at Plawangan Senaru Crater Rim (2,641 m). As the sun rises over the caldera, the scenery reveals one of the most breathtaking views on Mount Rinjani — the turquoise waters of Segara Anak Lake, the volcanic cone of Mount Baru Jari, and on clear days even Mount Agung in Bali on the horizon.

After breakfast and a short briefing from your guide, you’ll prepare for the descent to the lake.

Descent to Segara Anak Lake

Around 07:00 AM, the trek continues downhill toward Segara Anak Lake (2,000 m). The trail takes approximately 2.5–3 hours and is one of the more technical sections of the entire route.

The path winds down steep volcanic slopes covered with loose rocks and narrow ridges. Trekking slowly and carefully is important here, and your guide will assist you along the way. With every step lower, the massive caldera walls surround you, creating a dramatic volcanic landscape.

Relaxing at Segara Anak Lake

By around 09:30 AM, you will arrive at the lakeshore where your porters will already be preparing lunch.

This is a perfect moment to relax, take photos, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere beside the lake. The small active volcano Mount Baru Jari rises from the center of the water, making this one of the most iconic scenes on Mount Rinjani.

Natural Hot Springs Experience

After lunch, you will visit the Rinjani natural hot springs, located only a short walk from the lake.

These mineral-rich pools are a favorite stop for trekkers. Many people enjoy soaking in the warm water for 10–20 minutes, which helps soothe tired muscles after the long descent.

Trek to Propok Camp

At around 12:30 PM, the journey continues toward Propok Camp (2,300 m).

Along the way, the trail passes Goa Susu (Milk Cave), a small sacred cave known for its white mineral deposits. Your guide will briefly explain its cultural significance before the trek continues.

The route gradually climbs through rocky terrain with several narrow sections. In some places, iron ladders and fixed supports help trekkers navigate steeper parts of the trail.

Although the climb requires effort, the views become more spectacular as you gain elevation. Looking back, you’ll see Segara Anak Lake far below with the surrounding caldera forming an incredible natural amphitheater.

Arrival at Propok Camp

Around 05:00 PM, you will reach Propok Camp (2,300 m) — a quiet campsite surrounded by open hills and dramatic mountain scenery.

After arriving, you can relax with tea or coffee while your porters prepare dinner. As night falls, temperatures typically drop to around 10–12°C, and the clear mountain sky often reveals thousands of stars.

A good night’s rest here prepares you for the final day of trekking through the beautiful Torean Valley.

Day 3 — Descent Through the Torean Valley

The final day of the trek takes you down through the spectacular Torean Valley, one of the most scenic sections of Mount Rinjani. The trail winds through lush forest, bamboo groves, rivers, and waterfalls, with dramatic views of the canyon along the way. Although the route is mostly downhill, some sections are narrow and require careful footing.

Day 3 – Propok Camp (2,300 m) → Torean Valley → Torean Village (601 m)

Breakfast and lunch on the mountain

Wake up to the soft morning light illuminating the valley below. Enjoy a relaxed breakfast and a warm cup of coffee while taking in the peaceful mountain scenery surrounding Propok Camp.

07:00 AM – Start the descent to Torean Village

After breakfast, begin your journey down toward Torean Village. Today’s hike is mostly downhill but still requires energy and focus. The trail stretches for around 10 km and typically takes 6–7 hours to complete.

Leaving Propok Camp, the path gradually descends before entering the dramatic landscape of the Torean Valley, one of the most beautiful natural corridors on Mount Rinjani. Parts of the trail follow narrow ridges carved into the valley walls, locally known as “jalan kurus” or “the narrow path.” Trekkers walk carefully in single file here, and your guide will assist whenever needed to ensure a safe and comfortable descent.

As you continue lower, the environment becomes greener and more humid. The trail passes through bamboo forest, alongside flowing rivers, and near several small waterfalls. You may even walk through natural rock formations and shaded forest tunnels along the way.

One of the highlights of the descent is the breathtaking view of Penimbungan Waterfall, cascading dramatically across the canyon — a truly iconic sight of the Rinjani landscape.

11:30 AM – Lunch break by the river

Stop for a relaxing lunch beside the river, surrounded by the sounds of flowing water and birds in the forest. Your porters will prepare a warm meal, usually including fried rice or noodles, vegetables, and fresh fruit.

12:30 – 01:30 PM – Final descent to Torean Village (601 m)

After lunch, continue the final stretch of the trek. The trail follows the river through small bridges and local farmland before reaching the trailhead in Torean Village.

Congratulations! You have successfully completed the Mount Rinjani 3 Days / 2 Nights Trek from Senaru to Torean — an unforgettable journey through rainforest, volcanic landscapes, and one of Lombok’s most spectacular valleys.

Before trekking Mount Rinjani, all hikers are strongly advised to have valid travel insurance. Trekking takes place in a remote mountain environment where weather, altitude, and rugged terrain can create certain risks. Proper insurance ensures you are protected in case of accidents or medical emergencies during your trip.

Your policy should ideally cover medical treatment, emergency rescue, and helicopter evacuation. Since Mount Rinjani reaches 3,726 meters above sea level, make sure your insurance includes high-altitude trekking coverage (above 3,500 m), as many standard travel policies do not automatically include this.

Optional Premium Trekking Insurance

The Mount Rinjani National Park Authority now offers an optional Premium Trekking Insurance program to improve safety and emergency response for hikers.

While trekking permits already include basic insurance, the premium option provides additional protection and emergency support. It is available for both Indonesian citizens (WNI) and international visitors (WNA).

Coverage includes:

• Trekking accident protection

• Medical treatment related to trekking incidents

• Ground evacuation and ambulance services

• Emergency rescue operations

• Helicopter evacuation in serious situations

This insurance helps ensure hikers receive professional assistance quickly if an emergency occurs.

Premium Insurance Cost

• IDR 290,000 per person per trip

• Coverage valid from park entry until exit

• Maximum coverage period: 4 days (4 × 24 hours)

Is It Required?

The Premium Trekking Insurance is optional, but it is recommended if:

• You do not have travel insurance

• Your insurance does not cover trekking activities

• Your policy does not include emergency evacuation

• Your insurance does not cover high-altitude trekking

Because Mount Rinjani is remote and challenging, proper insurance can be extremely important during emergencies.

Using Your Own Travel Insurance

If you already have travel insurance that covers mountain trekking, you do not need to purchase the Premium Trekking Insurance. However, the park requires all hikers to register their insurance details before starting the trek.

You only need to provide:

• Insurance provider name

• Policy or certificate number

These details will be recorded together with your trekking permit registration.
