Mount Rinjani 4-Day Sembalun Expedition — Take Your Time on the Mountain
Go2Rinjani's most immersive Sembalun package — the 4-day Rinjani expedition gives you the time to truly experience the mountain. Summit at 3,726 m, two nights at Segara Anak lake, volcanic hot springs, and the option to exit via the scenic Torean Route — all fully supported by certified local guides, porters, and permits.
The Full Rinjani Expedition — No Rush, No Compromise
The 4-day Sembalun expedition is designed for trekkers who want to fully immerse themselves in Mount Rinjani National Park — without the time pressure of shorter packages. The extra day means more time at Segara Anak lake, a more relaxed summit push, deeper exploration of the crater floor, and the flexibility to add the Torean Route as your exit trail. This is Mount Rinjani trekking at its finest — unhurried, immersive, and unforgettable.
What to Expect on This Trek
Sembalun Savannah Trail
The expedition begins across the open savannah landscapes of Sembalun valley on the eastern slopes of Mount Rinjani National Park — wide, dramatic terrain shaped by traditional Sasak farmland and centuries of volcanic activity.
Mount Rinjani Summit at 3,726 m
A well-paced summit push from Plawangan Sembalun crater rim to the top of Mount Rinjani at 3,726 m — Lombok's highest peak and Indonesia's second-highest volcano — arriving for sunrise above the clouds with panoramic views over Lombok, Bali, and Sumbawa.
Two Nights at Segara Anak Lake
Unlike shorter packages, the 4-day expedition includes two nights camping beside Segara Anak lake at 2,008 m — giving you time to truly experience the sacred crater lake of Mount Rinjani, swim in its turquoise waters, and explore the crater floor at your own pace.
Volcanic Hot Springs
Soak in the natural volcanic hot springs on the shores of Segara Anak lake — a well-earned reward after the summit push, and one of the most memorable moments of any Rinjani trekking expedition.
Torean Route Exit — A Different Trail Out
The 4-day package is the ideal itinerary for trekkers who want to experience the Torean Route — a scenic descent from Segara Anak lake through the Torean valley to Torean village on the northern slopes of Rinjani National Park. A completely different landscape on the way out.
4-Day Sembalun Expedition Itinerary
