What to expect
The Journey begins in Sembalun village (1,100 meters), passing through scenic grassy fields. The hike to the Sembalun crater rim (2,639 meters) takes around 7 hours, so good stamina is essential. Be prepared for strong sun—wear a hat and use sunblock.
On day two, the summit climb starts at 2:30 AM, reaching Rinjani’s peak (3,726 meters) by sunrise for breathtaking views of Lombok. After descending, you’ll visit Lake Segara Anak and relax in nearby hot springs. You’ll camp overnight at the Senaru crater rim, enjoying a serene sunset.
The final day features a descent via the Senaru trail—an hour through open grasslands followed by a 5-hour trek in tropical forest—ending at Senaru village basecamp and concluding your adventure.





























Reviews
The local supplier was punctual, picking us up at 11:00 AM from the hotel to take us to a cabin near the volcano for an overnight stay! After a brief itinerary overview, we checked into our cabin, which was quite clean and had a very pleasant environment. On the first morning, after breakfast at 7:00 AM, we set off by car. The local guide never proactively offered to take photos with us and rarely assisted us along the way. Some of us with less physical stamina had to manage on our own, while I noticed other groups nearby were offering help to their members. Furthermore, our camping equipment was quite poor; we had no table or chairs! No table for dinner! No chairs to enjoy the beautiful sunset! Yet, I saw other teams had tables and chairs provided. This was very disappointing for us! Nevertheless, successfully reaching the summit was still a great joy!
We had such an amazing experience with Ahmed Expeditions for our Rinjani tour. Our guides Apri and Pagi were honestly the best, very kind, helpful and always hands on with everything. After the summit push we were completely tired and decided to skip the hot spring hike, and they were super flexible and changed the plan for us with no problem. Andy at Indah Village Accommodation was also very nice and welcoming. Boss Ahmed was amazing even after the tour, he helped us arrange a last minute waterfall trip and airport transfer. He replied fast, was very reliable and really took care of us. Goated man honestly.
Honestly, I was a bit worried about the accommodation's condition the day before, but the sunset and sunrise views from there were fantastic. Throughout the entire Rinjani trekking trip, the kind porters and guide Pagi made sure everything went smoothly. Although it was a round-trip Senaru route that didn't go to the summit, the scenery from Senaru Rim is something I'll never forget.
My Mount Rinjani trip with my guide, Pagi, and the amazing porters was truly an unforgettable experience filled with challenge, perseverance, and beautiful memories. From the warm hospitality by Ahmed at the hotel to the constant encouragement throughout the hike, the people I met during this journey made the experience even more meaningful. Throughout the entire trip, Pagi was incredibly motivating, patient, and friendly, constantly encouraging me during the toughest moments. The food cooked by the porters was also one of the highlights of the trek — warm, comforting, and surprisingly delicious despite being on the mountain. Overall, Mount Rinjani was one of the most physically demanding yet rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. The breathtaking scenery, supportive team, and unforgettable memories made every difficult step worth it.
Wow, what an unforgettable 3 day hike to Rinjani! Absolutely everything went smoothly - the transfers, the itinerary, the hike itself (breathtaking in more ways than one!) All of the staff were super friendly and accommodating. If you forget any essential equipment you can hire from them. The porters and guides work tirelessly to give you the most unforgettable adventure. Please tip them generously at the end of your trip! Would highly recommend- if you think you’re tough enough!
Quite an experience! By far the most difficult hike I've done, but the effort was well worth it... incredible scenery! Good organization, from pickup to drop-off. The guide and porters were attentive to our needs, and we enjoyed hearty meals in exceptional settings. I highly recommend it! :)
The 2-day, 1-night Rinjani trek was short but intense! We set off early from Sembalun and hiked for about 7 to 8 hours to reach the crater rim. The trail was challenging, but the view of Lake Segara Anak from the summit was absolutely stunning, especially at sunset and sunrise. Our guide and porters were fantastic: they carried the camping gear, prepared delicious meals, and even served fresh fruit and hot drinks. The tents were comfortable and clean. It's tough, but if you want to experience a memorable adventure in Lombok, this 2-day, 1-night trek is highly recommended!
We had an amazing experience with Ahmed’s Expedition during our Mt. Rinjani trek. From the moment we arrived, everything was well taken care of. They picked us up from the airport and provided comfortable accommodation the night before the hike. During the trek, the team always prioritized our safety and made sure we had a pleasant experience throughout the journey. The guides were attentive, supportive, and encouraging, especially during the more challenging parts of the hike. The food prepared during the trek was delicious with a nice local taste, which we really appreciated after long hiking hours. To top it all off, they also arranged our transport back to the airport at the end of the trip. Overall, it was a very smooth and enjoyable experience, and we highly recommend Ahmed’s Expedition to anyone planning to hike Mt. Rinjani!
It truly lives up to its reputation as one of the top ten hiking trails in the world; the scenery is absolutely beautiful! The guide provided excellent service. Hiking Difficulty: It's quite challenging, so I recommend exercising for a month beforehand. Guide: The service was very good, they spoke English, and the meals tasted great with a well-balanced nutritional profile.
Ahmed (boss) Ali/Oden (Guides) and the porters were fantastic people. They’ve given us conducting briefs, guided and cooked throughout our hike and was very patient with our group. Their route is very challenging so do make sure to train before your attempt! guide: 10/10 difficulty of the hike: 10/10 scenery: 10/10
