Standing at a majestic 3726 meters, Mt. Rinajani located in te the North Of Lombok, is the second highest peak in Indonesia . For the people of Lombok - sasak and Balinese alike - this mountain is sacred place where, at the summit, the holy gods live .

A large crater lake " Segara Anak " , located at 2,000 meters above sea level is the destination of many pilgrim, who make annual trek up the step slope in order to place offerings to the gods in the lake itself . Within this breathtaking crater lake has appeared a new and active volcano called Mt. Barujari . Nearby is hot spring which is said to cure disease .

To Climb such an impressive mountain is an unforgettable experiences.
Starting point for such a trek can begin at Senaru in the North - this three or four day trek attacks Rinjani from the West and means a descent to the awesome crater lake before again climbing up and out and attempting to reach the summit
