2D-1N Trekking Summit Mount Rinjani

No. The 2 Days 1 Night Summit package is classified as strenuous/challenging. It requires excellent physical fitness, good stamina, and strong mental preparation. You will trek approximately 24 km with a total elevation gain of +2,570 meters in just two days. If you have never done high-altitude trekking before, we recommend our 3 Days 2 Nights package instead, which provides a more relaxed pace.

The highest point is the Summit of Mount Rinjani at 3,726 meters (12,224 ft) above sea level — the second-highest volcano in Indonesia.

The summit push begins at approximately 2:30 AM from Sembalun Crater Rim (2,639m). You will be woken up at 2:00 AMfor a light breakfast (toast, biscuits, hot tea/coffee) before starting the climb.

The summit climb is the most difficult section of the entire trek. It consists of three stages:

• Stage 1: Steep dirt trail (moderate).
• Stage 2: Flatter sandy ridge (easier).
• Stage 3: Extremely loose volcanic gravel and scree — famously described as "2 steps forward, 1 step back." This final 1–1.5 hour push is very demanding.

Trekking poles are highly recommended for this section.

• Daytime (Sembalun savannah): 25°C – 30°C (77°F – 86°F), sunny and exposed.
• Night at Crater Rim (2,639m): 5°C – 10°C (41°F – 50°F), windy.
• Summit before sunrise (3,726m): 0°C – 5°C (32°F – 41°F) with strong winds. Wind chill can make it feel below freezing.

Bring proper layers: thermal base, fleece, and a windproof/waterproof jacket.

Porters are included in your package. Our porters carry all camping logistics: tents, mattresses, sleeping bags, food, water, cooking equipment, and group gear. You only carry your personal daypack (recommended 15L–30L) with water, camera, phone, jacket, and personal medication.

If you want a private porter for personal items (e.g., extra camera gear, heavier luggage), this can be arranged for $23 USD/day.

We serve 3 fresh meals per day during the trek, plus snacks and drinks:

• Breakfast (Day 1): At your Sembalun accommodation before the trek.
• Lunch (Day 1): Hot, freshly cooked lunch at Pos 2 (1,500m).
• Dinner (Day 1): Warm dinner at Sembalun Crater Rim camp.
• Light Breakfast (Day 2, 2:00 AM): Toast, biscuits, hot tea/coffee before the summit attack.
• Full Breakfast (Day 2, ~9:00 AM): Hearty meal back at camp after summiting.
• Lunch (Day 2): At Pos 2 or Pos 1 on the way down.

We cater to vegetarian, vegan, and other dietary requirements— please inform us at the time of booking.

We provide a private portable toilet tent at the campsite. On the trail, there are basic toilet facilities at some rest posts (Pos 1, 2, 3). Bring your own wet wipes and hand sanitiser.

There is patchy phone signal at Sembalun Crater Rim (Telkomsel works best), but no signal at all near the summit. There is no Wi-Fi on the mountain. We recommend downloading offline maps and entertainment before the trek.
