Day 1 Tetebatu Trekking Information
The ascent to Sangkareang mountain (crater Rim Tetebatu) begins from Tetebatu village in East Lombok at an elevation of 700 meters above sea level. The expedition begins in Monkey woodland (a remote woodland near Tetebatu populated by monkeys).
We can see monkeys (monkeys) in large numbers here, and we can plainly see the peak or Sangkareang mountain, which became our destination.
After 30 minutes of traveling from the Monkey Forest, we will reach a dense forest. The path we are taking is new / natural, and it feels cool because many scorching sun trees are blocked by dense bridges and cannot be felt. After traveling for 1 hour and 30 minutes, we arrived at the first resting point, known as the Dutch Cottage.
After a good break, we continue our adventure, and after 15 minutes of walking, we approach the meadow, where we can see the villagers far behind us and Rinjani mountain in front.
And after 1 hour and 30 minutes, we leave the Netherlands Pondok and arrive at the second row of the Cemara Baris for lunch.
After the break and lunch, we will continue our trek to the campsite at 2500 meters above sea level, which is rather steep and takes about 2 hours from Cemara Baris, where we will pitch up a tent for rest and overnight.
Day 2 Trekking Tetebatu Crater Rim
The next morning, at 4.30 a.m., after a light breakfast, we will begin a one-hour trek to the top of Sangkareang mountain (crater rim Tetebatu 2900 – 3.200 masl), from which we will have a spectacular view of Mount Rinjani, Lake, and the new volcano.
We will reach the top at sunrise, enjoy the panorama, and rest here. At 7 a.m., we will return our journey down to the base camp. After spending 5 hours, including lunch, and stopping for rest, we reach the Tetebatu village.
