Why Rinjani, Lombok?

如果你问我，“Rinjani 值得去吗？”

我只能说：站在云上那一刻，会感谢自己有勇气来

这座印尼第二高的火山，不只是一个登山的地方，它是灵魂的洗礼场，是挑战自己的战场，

在Rinjani山顶，看着云海翻腾，日出慢慢洒进火山湖，鸡皮疙瘩🔥

Lombok 不像峇里岛那么commercial，这里更纯粹、更原始、更适合我们这些想远离尘嚣

不管是热爱大自然、爱冒险，还是想找回那个更勇敢的自己，Rinjani都会给你答案。

而你带回的，不只是照片，而是勇气、疗愈、和一群笑着爬山、哭着拥抱的战友。💪👯‍♀️

If you ask, “Is Rinjani worth it?” — the answer is a bold, resounding YES. Standing above the clouds at 3,726m, with the world beneath your feet, you’ll feel reborn. Mount Rinjani isn’t just Indonesia’s second-highest volcano — it’s a pilgrimage for the bold-hearted. Located in Lombok, it offers raw adventure, crater lakes, jungle trails, and sunrises so beautiful they’ll make you tear up.

For nature lovers, thrill-seekers, or anyone looking to break through their limits — Rinjani gives you the challenge, and then gives you everything in return: strength, stillness, connection, and memories that stay.

Highlights of the Trip

Bukit Selong

Bukit Selong is a scenic hill in Sembalun, East Lombok, known for its stunning sunrise views over colorful rice fields and Mount Rinjani. A short hike leads to a star-shaped viewpoint, perfect for photos and peaceful moments.

Gunung Rinjani (3D2N Hike)

A bucket-list-worthy hike through rainforest, savannah, and volcanic ridges. Camp under the stars, watch the sunrise from the crater rim, and witness the volcanic lake from above.

Sendang Gile & Tiu Kelep Waterfalls

Nestled at the foot of Rinjani, these two-tiered waterfalls offer a refreshing escape with crystal-clear waters and lush forest surroundings.

Bukit Merese & Tanjung Aan Beach

Soft white sands, dreamy sunsets, and a perfect post-hike chill zone to wrap up your Lombok adventure.

Gunung Rinjani (3D2N Hike)

Mount Rinjani 3D2N Hike – Sembalun to Torean Route

If you’re up for a real adventure, the 3 days 2 nights Rinjani trek from Sembalun to Torean is one of the most rewarding ways to experience Lombok’s wild side.

Day 1 – Sembalun to Crater Rim Camp

We started the trek from Sembalun Village, trekking through wide-open grasslands and gentle hills. The trail gradually gets steeper, and by late afternoon, we reached the Sembalun Crater Rim. We camped here with an incredible view of Rinjani's crater lake and the summit towering above.

Day 2 – Summit Push & Down to the Lake

A super early start for those aiming to reach the Rinjani Summit (3,726m). It’s a tough, sandy climb in the dark — but incredibly rewarding.
After the summit, we descended to Segara Anak Lake, passing surreal volcanic landscapes. Lunch was served by the lake, and we continued to the nearby natural hot springs — the perfect reward after a long hike.

Day 3 – Exit viaTorean

We exited the mountain via Torean, a less-crowded, lush route. The trail feels like a fantasy jungle — think mossy cliffs, hanging vines, and rivers. It’s a long descent but much gentler on the knees than going back the same way. The views along the way are stunning and different from the way up.

Why choose this route?
- Easier ascent via Sembalun
- Visit crater lake + hot springs
-Scenic and unique Torean jungle exit

This route gives you a full Rinjani experience — challenging, beautiful, and totally unforgettable.

Sendang Gile & Tiu Kelep Waterfalls

📍 Sendang Gile Waterfall
Located at the foot of Mount Rinjani in Senaru, Sendang Gile is the first and easiest waterfall to reach. The water cascades down a tall cliff surrounded by lush jungle, creating a peaceful and refreshing atmosphere. It’s just a 15-minute walk from the entrance, making it perfect for a quick nature escape.

📍 Tiu Kelep Waterfall
A bit deeper into the forest, Tiu Kelep is the real hidden gem. After a 30-minute trek through rivers and forest trails, you'll arrive at a powerful waterfall crashing into a large pool—perfect for a dip. The view is magical, with mist and rainforest vibes all around. Truly a must-visit spot in Lombok!

Bukit Selong

📍 Bukit Selong Viewpoint – A Scenic Escape in Sembalun

Located in the quiet village of Sembalun, Bukit Selong is a peaceful hilltop with sweeping views of Lombok’s colorful rice fields and the dramatic silhouette of Mount Rinjani.

A short walk brings you to a scenic platform, including a unique star-shaped deck — perfect for taking in the view or snapping that postcard-worthy shot.

It’s a calm, beautiful spot to relax, enjoy the landscape, and soak in the natural charm of East Lombok.

Bukit Merese & Tanjung Aan Beach

Lombok hidden gem! Bukit Merese the best sunset ever

Bukit Merese的夕阳真的是爆美

我们爬完山 ，坐在山丘上看太阳慢慢跌进海里，风一吹～超疗愈。🌬️

MAYBE 可以买一瓶酒，TIAP 一下， 感受那个腿 软绵绵的FEEL ， HUISEH 直接 ENJOY LIFE

After the challenge comes the reward — soft white sands, salty air, and the most cinematic sunset of your life. At Bukit Merese, you’ll sit on grassy hills overlooking the ocean, watching the sun melt into the horizon, wind in your hair and joy in your chest. Laughter, music, maybe a little dance — it’s the celebration you deserve. It’s a reminder that life can be both wild and soft — and after the climb, this bliss feels even sweeter.
