Mount Rinjani 4d3n Senaru Torean Trekking Itinerary Day

(Lunch & Dinner Included)

Day 1 marks the official start of the Rinjani Lake Trek 4 Days 3 Nights Senaru to Torean program. Today focuses on rainforest trekking and a steady ascent from Senaru Village toward Senaru Crater Rim.

The trail remains fully natural, passing through dense tropical rainforest before opening into the spectacular crater rim landscape.

Morning — Registration & Trek Start

07:00 AM – Registration & Trek Begins (804 m)
Trekkers meet the guide at Senaru Trek Center for registration and a short safety briefing before entering the trail.

The path first crosses village farmland before quickly entering dense rainforest. Thick jungle canopy keeps the air cool while birds and forest sounds accompany the early climb.

Trekking Sections & Rest Points

Jebag Gawah → POS 1 (915 m)

Walking time: ±30 minutes
Terrain: natural forest trail with soil paths and exposed tree roots.

Jebag Gawah serves as the official trekking entrance and checkpoint where permits are checked before entering Mount Rinjani National Park.

The climb begins gradually through shaded forest terrain.

POS 1 → POS Extra

Walking time: ±45 minutes
The trail becomes slightly steeper but remains shaded and comfortable.

Humidity increases as trekkers move deeper into rainforest sections.

POS Extra → POS 2 (1,500 m)

Walking time: ±1 hour
Terrain remains jungle trail with occasional slippery soil, especially after rain.

Trekkers usually take short hydration breaks along this section.

POS 2 → POS 3 (Mondokan Lolak, 2,000 m)

Walking time: ±2 hours
This section becomes longer and more demanding as elevation gain increases.

The dense forest continues, and trekkers must carefully step over exposed tree roots and natural soil steps.

Lunch Break at POS 3

Lunch is freshly prepared by the trekking team while trekkers rest and recover energy before the final ascent.

Rest duration: ±1–1.5 hours depending on trekking pace.

Afternoon — Final Ascent to Senaru Crater Rim

POS 3 → Senaru Crater Rim / Plawangan Senaru (2,641 m)

Walking time: ±2 hours
Terrain: open hillside ascent with natural soil paths and rocky ground.

After leaving POS 3, vegetation gradually becomes thinner as the trail exits dense rainforest. The terrain transitions into open hillsides with continuous uphill sections.

This part is more exposed to wind and sun compared to jungle sections, making temperatures feel warmer during sunny weather.

Although the trail is not narrow, the climb remains continuous and requires steady pacing.

As trekkers gain elevation, panoramic views begin opening toward Segara Anak Lake and Mount Baru Jari before finally reaching camp.

Trail Conditions & Trekking Tips — Senaru Route

The Senaru route remains fully natural without permanent stairs or constructed paths in most forest sections.

Trekkers walk directly on jungle terrain where:

• Tree roots frequently cross the trail
• Soil paths may become slippery
• Ground surfaces remain uneven

Trekkers are advised to:

• Walk carefully and maintain footing
• Avoid stepping between exposed roots
• Use trekking poles if needed
• Wear shoes with strong grip

During dry season, fine dust may create slippery downhill surfaces.

During rainy season, soil becomes moist and muddy, increasing slipperiness.

Therefore, trekkers must walk carefully in all conditions.
