The trek starts from Sembalun Lawang with the gentle ascent walking
through open grassland used as cattle grazing by local people.
Resting at Pos 1 Pemantauan (1,300 m), after about three hours from
Sembalun we reach Pos 2 Tengengean (1,500 m) enjoying the beautiful
views of Mt. Rinjani summit (3,726 m).
After another hours ascent to Pos 3 Pada Balong (1,800 m), we start
the step 3,5 climb amidst the pine-like Casuarinas species locally
known as Cemara, perhaps seeing evidence of wild pigs and the
long-tailed grey macaque monkeys to the camp site at Plawangan II
Sembalun crater rim (2,639 m).
Day 3:
At 03:00 AM starts is necessary for the hard three-hours climb to the
summit (3,726 m) on volcanic screen. Once there, enjoy proud feelings
of satisfaction and the amazing sunrise views across the Wallace Line
to Bali, Mt. Agung and Sumbawa, after breakfast down to the lake
Segara Anak (2,000 m) within the Rinjani crater.
Mt. Baru is an island in the lake and an active volcano, last erupting
dramatically in 1994. Return down the ridge passing numerous edelweiss
plants Bunga Abadi to the crater rim camp for a well-deserved
breakfast. It takes two to three hours down the steep trail to the
crater lake and day 2's camp.
The rest of the day is spent relaxing, swimming in the lake and
exploring the caves and pilgrimage hot springs, believed to have
healing powers.

Plawangan 1 senaru Crater Rim (2,461 m).

m), through thick tropical forests rich in flora, bird life and a
variety of butterflies.

village stories and local legends related by your guide.
