At last! After an earthquake, a volcanic eruption, and 2 years of pandemic, we came back to Lombok to hike Mount Rinjani and chose Rinjani Trekking Center.
The whole experience is a one-of-a-kind, wonderful one.
We loved our 3 day trek with Ali, the kindest of guides, and the 2 porters / cooks who prepared us lovely meals (omg their curry! Their nasi goreng! Their banana pancakes!)
Ali is a pro with a huge smile and a genuine love for nature. He picks up trash, commits to safeguarding this wonderful environment, takes care of the team and adapts to your need.
It was a pleasure to chat and interact with him. He is really gentle and sweet.
Please note that you have to be in excellent physical condition and wear proper gear and attire. Walking poles are highly recommended. Our shoes did not survive the trek 😂
We were glad we took the 3 day trek. We did it for our tenth anniversary and this will be one to remember for the best possible reasons! The view is spectacular and dramatic, the hike is challenging and well worth the show.
Everything was perfect! Thank you so much.
