Deskripsi
Arrival Day (Day 0): We will come to pick you up upon your arrival on Lombok Island, then transfer you to Tetebatu village, where you will drive for 2-3 hours in an air-conditioned private car. Once you check into your hotel in Tetebatu, you will meet your guide, who will give you a briefing, describe the route details, and explain your program. After that, you are free to explore at your own leisure.
Day 1 Trekking: After breakfast at the hotel, we will begin our ascent to the crater rim of Tetebatu. We will start from Tetebatu village, at an altitude of 700 meters above sea level, and travel by car to the start point at the monkey forest, which is 800 meters above sea level. From this point, we can clearly see the Rinjani mountain or crater rim of Tetebatu, which is our goal.
After a 30-minute stroll from Monkey Forest, we venture into the dense forest, traversing a path that feels fresh and natural. The numerous trees cast shadows on the path, making it feel chilly. After an hour and 30 minutes, we reach the first stop for a break, known as Pondok Belanda or Netherlands Huts. It’s possible that the Dutch once rested here before proceeding on their journey to Gunung Kondo or Segara Anak Lake.
After a break, we embarked on our journey, and after 15 minutes, we reached the meadow. In this place, we can see that Tetebatu village is far behind us, and Mount Rinjani on the right side stands tall. After 1 hour and 30 minutes, we left Pondok Belanda and reached Post 2 for lunch and rest.
After a lunch and enough break, we will continue the journey to the campsite (2350 MASL) of the Crater Rim Tetebatu. The track is quite steep, so we will reach campsite after 2 hours of normal time. In this place, we set up a tent for rest, dinner, and overnight with the beautiful view of the summit of Rinjani soaring through the clouds.
Day Two Trekking: Weak up early, at 4 a.m., and get a light breakfast with a hot drink. At 4.30 am, we will lead you on a 1.5-hour climb to the summit of Sangkareang Mountain, which is 2,957 meters high. We will reach the top at sunrise, enjoy the panorama, and rest here. At 7 a.m., we will resume our journey down to the base camp. After spending 5 hours, including lunch, and stopping for rest, we reach the village and take a shower at our hotel. After that, we will transfer you to your next destination on Lombok Island.
