Primary goals of the 3 days Sembalun to Torean trek:

1. Conquer the summit of Mount Rinjani

The most challenging part of the trek, and a main goal for many hikers, is the ascent to the summit at 3,726 meters. The goal is to reach the peak before dawn on the second day to witness a spectacular sunrise over the clouds with panoramic views of Lombok, Bali, and Sumbawa.

2. Traverse diverse landscapes

The route allows trekkers to experience the vast contrast of Mount Rinjani’s ecosystems.

  • Beginning in Sembalun: The trek starts through expansive, high-altitude savanna grasslands.
  • Descending via Torean: It ends with a descent through lush, dense tropical rainforests, river valleys, and spectacular waterfalls.

3. Experience Segara Anak Lake and the hot springs

After the challenging summit climb, the route descends into the caldera to the tranquil Segara Anak (Crater Lake). A key goal is to relax in the natural hot springs near the lake, providing a chance to soothe tired muscles and recover before the final day’s descent.

4. Descend through the scenic Torean Valley

The final day’s descent via the Torean route is a major highlight and goal of the trip. The path is known for its dramatic scenery, including cliffside “narrow roads” and hidden waterfalls, and offers a more serene, less-crowded alternative to other routes.
