Trekking Summit Sembalun 2 days

Mount Rinjani 2-Day Summit Trek — Fastest Route to Lombok’s Peak (3,726m)

Looking for a short yet challenging trek to the top of Lombok’s most iconic volcano?
Our Mount Rinjani Summit 2-Day Trek is designed for fit and experienced hikers who want to reach the peak of Mount Rinjani (3,726m) in the shortest time possible.

Starting and finishing in Sembalun village, this fast-paced adventure takes you through sweeping savannah grasslands, rocky mountain trails, and finally to the summit, where you’ll be rewarded with unforgettable sunrise views over Lombok, Bali, Sumbawa, and Segara Anak Lake.

With panoramic landscapes, eco-friendly practices (tree planting included), and full support from our expert Green Rinjani guides, this trek offers a rewarding challenge for those ready to conquer one of Indonesia’s highest peaks.


🌄 Highlights of the 2-Day Rinjani Summit Trek

  • Stunning savanna landscapes from the Sembalun route

  • Spectacular sunrise from Mount Rinjani summit (3,726m)

  • Breathtaking sunset overlooking Segara Anak crater lake (from the crater rim)

  • Eco-friendly experience — tree planting included

  • Less crowded compared to longer treks


🥾 Trail Conditions — What to Expect

Expect long uphill climbs, steep zigzag trails, and sections of loose volcanic sand, especially on the final push to the summit. The trek begins with open savannah grasslands, gradually transitioning into rocky and steeper paths as you gain altitude.

The final ascent to the summit is very steep, narrow, and slippery, but the panoramic sunrise views at the top make every step worthwhile.

This route is physically demanding and is best suited for trekkers with good fitness levels and prior hiking experience.
Please note: This 2-day trek does not include a visit to Segara Anak Lake or the hot springs. These are accessible only on longer itineraries such as the 3-day / 2-night trek via Sembalun or Senaru routes.
