Mount Rinjani 2013 D01 - the Arrival

About more than a year I have been planning this trip to scale the summit of Mount Rinjani. That time I went to this National Park with my fellow colleagues but our plan is to only reach the crater from Senaru side. Then few of us start to wonder how great it will be to reach the summit of this volcanic mountain.

Thus a group formed by 4 Swiss and 4 Malaysian will be taking up this challenge to trek up the mountain. We are taking the service from same tour agent Adventure Lombok who did well in our last trip. And due to everyone was going to Lombok from different part of the world thus our first day of trekking had to happen on Sunday. 

The trek starts on Sunday and at the time of my ticket booking only 3 flights available in a week. That makes me stay much longer than planned trip. I will have to stay additional 2 nights before and after the trekking which total to 7 nights in Lombok. Although it sounds like spending too much do nothing pre and post trekking but I do feel great for this trip.For the extra nights we will be staying in Holiday Resort which previously was Holiday Inn.



The room that will prepare me for the trek and let me rest well after as well.


With the nice balcony where I could hang my wet clothing...
