2 Days Rinjani Trekking to Summit

We have designed a Rinjani Trekking package for real trekkers (advanced/Pro). The participants must be in good condition, a good level of fitness, and have several mountain climbing experiences. This program is not recommended for beginners. This Trek starts in Sembalun and ends in Sembalun. We take the faster and direct route climbing to the Mount Rinjani Summit which is popular for those climbers who do not wish to spend several days on the expedition. This trip does not visit the crater Lake Segara Anak but it is still a breathtaking and magic experience on trek. This Package will be done in 2 days 1 night 2.
