1. We are officially licensed tour guides of Mt. Rinjani. This means our tours do not cancel when other tour companies often do. THIS IS IMPORTANT!
2.  We are one of the only tour companies to accept solo trekkers who can join other groups.
3. Groups of 2 or more are automatically considered their own group and are not required to join larger groups (unless you want to).
4. We pay our guides and porters fairly which attracts the absolute best and coolest people. We are not boring…let’s just say that!
5. We cook some of the best food at the top of the mountain!
6. We are friends with other official tour groups and work together like a small union. On days with only a few hikers, we team up are able to make groups of similar age & skill levels easier than other unofficial tour companies.
7. We offer a seamless way to stay at your homestay extra days after your trek if you need time to rest after.
8. Our team is just…well…freekin’ cool! You will have more fun with us!

We have hiking tours going everyday. Solo hikers are welcome, and you will be joining another group.

We do our best to pair you with someone of your age and hiking level. To be frank, most of the porters and guides that travel up the Mt. Rinjani daily are one big network of friends since childhood. Hill & our team always have a solution for solo hikers as long as national parks tickets are still available.

Groups of 10 and over get a $500 discount per 10 people that join. We can accommodate large groups since we have multiple home-stays right beside each other. This is something unique to our company.

Our form permits 10 people per trekking form. To simplify things, if you have more than 10 people, just fill out the trekking form once with all hikers names on it (even more than 10). We will calculate the national parks payment fee amount so you can simply pay once. Just message us on WhatsApp first.

2D/1N means 2 days & 1 night.

3D/2N means 3 days & 2 nights.

This is counting ONLY your hiking days & nights.

Since you will arrive 1 day earlier to stay at our homestay, technically you have 1 extra night you are staying with us (included in your price).

So, if you are doing the 2D/1N summit trek, you will spend 1 night at our home stay, trek all day, spend 1 night at the rim, and then trek 1 more day back down.

If you are doing the 3D/2N summit & lake trek, you will spend 1 night at our home stay, trek all day, spend the night at the rim, trek another day, spend the night at the lake, and then trek a third and final day back down.

Mt. Rinjani is open from April – December. It is closed for hiking from January 1 until April 1. The rainy season is different each year, but can start as early as mid-September. November is usually the wettest month of the year. Since Lombak is a tropical island, the weather is warm year-round. However, the heavy rain makes hiking Mt. Rinjani unsafe.

In general, if you are booking 2 weeks in advance, you shouldn’t have much trouble. If you are booking for the upcoming week, dates are sold out sometimes, and we must check the database. During busy seasons, like Indonesian holidays and weekend, dates sell out quickly.

so it’s important that you check your dates with us via WhatsApp before paying your national parks fees. We can check the current database easily.

The rim trek is 7,5 km the first day (to the rim), 15 km on the way back. The decent is much easier on the way back.

The summit trek is 9 km on the first day to the rim. On day 2, it is 4 km round trip to the summit at back to the rim at, but a very tough section. It is 9 km from the rim back to Sembalun.

The summit & lake trek is 7km on the first day to the rim. On day 2, it is 3km round trip to the summit and back to the rim, but a very tough section. Then, it is 2.5km to the lake. From the lake to the Senaru rim is 3km. Then from the Senaru rim to Senaru village is 7.5km on the final day.

It costs 150,000 IDR (roughly $10 per day) for foreign nationals to hike in Gunung Rinjani National Park.  This covers your insurance & health check as well. For ecological and safety reasons, there are strictly enforced daily hiker limits on Mt. Rinjani. No one, not even tour companies, can get tickets without paying this fee and registering an actual hiker. You must pay this fee before your registration can be made. If you do not do this, you can never guarantee that you will actually have a ticket when you arrive on Lombok.

There are many stories of hikers coming to Lombok, only to find out that their tour company did not actually buy the ticket, and that the mountain is sold out. Don’t let this happen to you. Pay your national parks fees and get a voucher from us for your actual ticket.

Please read the voucher your received after fill out your form. Payment details are found on this voucher PDF file.

For the summit & lake treks, we start in Sembalun. For the rim trek, we start in Senaru.

If you area group of 2 or more, we will pick you up anywhere on Lombok and it is included in the total price.

If you are a solo hiker, pick up point is in Bangsal Harbor, and it is included in your price.

If you are a solo hiker and you need a ride to or from anywhere else on the island, it is $20 each way. This is paid directly to the driver and we do not accept that payment here.

Be sure to put your pick-up and drop-off information on your trekking form.

Yes! If you are a group of 2 or more, we off this as part of your package.

If you are a solo hiker, you can pay $20 extra to the driver directly and they will take you to Kuta.

We do NOT recommend this. It is too risky during treks. Some treks finish late due to weather, slow groups, sore feet, etc. 

The only way it IS possible is if you have your own group of 2 or more, and you took the rim trek only. If you descend from the rim in the morning, you can be down in time for a flight. We can do this.

The waterfalls are right in front of our homestay. It’s a like heaven on earth. It’s magic in itself. Also, just ask our guides and drivers, and we can help you enjoy Senaru however you’d like.

Yes. You need a jacket. We do not supply jackets. It is a warm hike on most days until you get to the rim or summit. It cools off in the evenings, especially when you are not hiking. Some people are fine with a windbreaker style jacket, some want something even more warm. When you reach the summit, you cool off very quickly. It has been known to hit 0 degrees sometimes at the summit. You are only there a short time, but that is the short time you need a jacket.

For shoes, you need treads on your shoes. Hiking boots are not necessary, but helpful. You must have shoes with good tread.

Yes. We provide both hiking poles and head lamps.
