Climbed at the very end of the rainy season. Was lucky as showers cleared on summit morning. Was harder than I expected.

Mount Rinjani3726M among the Sasak tribe from Lombok consider this mountain as a sacred mountain.There are some ceremony taking place at the Lake Danau Segara Anak where they believes that the soul of the love one will come back and they send some offering such as gold and waded it to the lake for offering to the Mountain of Gunung Baru.



On the way trek down the summit we can view from far the tip peak of Mount Agung in Bali.The craters surrounded this mountain was fantastic and beautiful and many fishing activities are taking place at the beautiful clear lake.



Also there are some hot spring at the camping side near the Danau segara Anak where climbers and visitors can have a dipped and enjoy the hot water bath.It was belief that this hot spring water can cure those who have skin problem too.

Don't climb this mountain alone. Get a local guide and porter. There have been too many problems with robbers and several deaths. The track is uneven and strenuous. Water is hard to find. Conditions near the top can be very windy, wet and cold. First time I went up in 1977 there were 5 bodies (locals) on the trail just under the summit. They had died of exposure. It is a big mountain and it is hard work to get to the top. Probably only 40% make it. Be prepared.

UlrichPrinzRoute Climbed: Normal Route from the North (hiking) Date Climbed: June 1999  Sucess!

Although every other person on this mountain we met

was with a group and a tour guide, we comfortably

did the tour on our own (me and my girlfriend, who is no climber).

The path is easy to find (contrary what locals tell you)

and the hike is not by far as strenous as the

German GuideBook Horror-Story.

We did it in 2 days with one overnight stay there.



Beautiful Shadow of the mountain at sunrise over Bali !
