Mount Rinjani in Lombok, being the second highest volcano in Indonesia after Mount Kerinci in Sumatra, is one of the most popular trekking in Indonesia. This is because it offers amazing adventurous hike that promises breathtaking view at the peak. It is also partly because of its good location in Lombok which is many independent travelers’ favourite.

Standing at 3,726 m, Mount Rinjani is one of the most active volcano in Indonesia, similarly to Mount Bromo in Java. It bears a caldera of 50 km square that holds a crater lake called Segara Anak (Child of Sea), which has a natural hot spring.

Mount Rinjani had been proposed by the government to UNESCO to be one of the world’s first official geoparks if approved.
