Mount Rinjani which we now enjoy is the former of the massive eruption of the mountain formerly known Samalas which increasingly takes place over 800 years. ago. Believed it escalates even more powerful than the eruption of Mount Tambora and Krakatoa. Volcanic ash spread worldwide and led to the change in global weather. Also believed that a mass death takes place everywhere, not just because of the disaster soon also because the famine was caused not successful harvest and following the attack of various diseases. Narrative regarding this devastating eruption Samalas be recorded on an old manuscript, Babad Lombok.
Because it is so powerful the eruption Samalas well as many mountain spewed volcanic material has resulted in a void pocket of magma to the side of the mountain collapsed roof and make a deep caldera 800 mtr., Which now is so spot terhamparnya Segara Anak Lake and Mount Barujari. Okay, enough talk history, today let us examine the positive effects of this now abandoned Samalas.

Just try to Gili Trawangan, then you will find dozens of stores that sell product "Rinjani Trekking", just prepare the money and decide what day climbing package. Entirely general supplies such as logistics, tents, water to drink will be prepared by the operator, we simply bring personal items such as clothes, sleeping bag, and personalized medicine.

The most common climbing route bypassed the lines and lines Sembalun Senaru. Inequality, the more gentle Sembalun track time during the day but the climb is going to be very hot because the vast grasslands dominated by minimal trees. Heat from the sun is stinging but occasionally cold wind blows and makes chills. Senaru're on track, we will be confronted by the long climbs that there is no interruption until Pelawangan to Senaru, but during the heat because we are no longer the path to penetrate the dense jungle menauingi us from the sun. Climbs to the top of the ridge there Sembalun, to climbers generally select line Sembalun departure time, because the route is close to the top, then down through Senaru. Equipment as well as the logistics of climbing operators and is easily available in Sembalun Senaru.
From Pelawangan Sembalun and Senaru, our eyes will be enticed by the beauty of the Lake Segara Anak turquoise. On it, the top of Rinjani stands proudly. Mount Barujari enjoy curling up under the auspices of the shadow of Rinjani surrounded Segara Anak. A masterpiece of God's unbeatable.
Typically, some climbers will start to do the climbing peak or summit attack at the beginning of the day or midnight. That is in order to see the sunrise at the peak fitting time arrives. The trip to the summit of Pelawangan Sembalun taken about 4-8 hours depending on the speed semasing way. Steep terrain to the summit ridge is very steep gravel material mixed with sand. Arriving on the ridge road going ramp. Then the final climb to the summit is the toughest, not only a high degree of slope, on either side there is also a steep canyon, and the material is sand and rock climbs. To arrive at the top must be taken with a hard-earned, each one step up will be followed by a half step down because of falling rocks sand.
Usually, no special skills or equipment needed to climb Rinjani. Just needed stamina, vigor and mental as hard as diamond to be up to the third highest peak in Indonesia. However, all of the tired and hard work will pay off when we are up at the top. And to be honest, when he arrived at the summit of Rinjani is the first time I really felt what it meant "exhaustion paid off". When weather is nice, we can see from the top of Mount Agung in Bali, Mount Ijen in East Java and Mount Tambora on Sumbawa Island. All of the island of Lombok will seem complete with its three popular dyke.
Rinjani is indeed amazing, no words can translate beauty, even beautiful words as well as no longer fit for use, inasmuch Rinjani getting over a thousand levels of the word "beautiful", he is piece of heaven that God does not intend dropped from the sky.
