Senaru Trekking Route
Senaru Trekking Route – The Forest Path to Rinjani’s Crater Rim
The Senaru route is the most classic and accessible trail for Mount Rinjani trekking — known for its dense tropical rainforest, abundant wildlife, and stunning crater rim viewpoints.
Starting from Senaru Village (601 m) in North Lombok, trekkers climb gradually through lush jungle and reach the Senaru Crater Rim (2,641 m) — a breathtaking viewpoint overlooking Segara Anak Lake, Mount Barujari, and the Rinjani summit.
This route is perfect for those who want to experience the beauty of Rinjani without the full summit climb.
