Hiking Mount Rinjani (in-depth documentary) // The Lombok Life S1 E5 (Part Two)

We spent three days and two nights hiking Mount Rinjani and wow...it is tough! In part two of this episode of The Lombok Life, I give you an in-depth look at what it's like to climb Indonesia's second tallest volcano (3726m). In part one, we climbed up to the crater rim from Sembalun where we made camp. Part two picks up right where we left off - it's all about making our way to the summit for sunrise some of the best views in Indonesia.
We also hike into the volcanic crater, exploring the lake (Segara Anak), before enjoying the rainforests above Senaru. It's tough, it's gruelling, it's relentless. But it's worth every second. This is one of the best adventures you can have in Indonesia. It's pure magic. This is hiking Mount Rinjani. I hope you enjoy!

Great hike, guys. I did the part from Senaru to the rim and back, in one day, back in 2019 without a guide. Started from the village at midnight, got up there for the sunrise, then spent four hours exploring the rim. Never went down to the lake though, as I was told the path was destroyed by the earthquake. Really enjoyed your video, especially the parts by the lake, that I missed.

Thanks for the two videos about climbing rinjani, Josh. They're awesome and informative. We are planning to climb this October and would like to know how much would it cost for an exclusive tour to mt rinjani. We are a couple as well and we thought we'd just join a group because it's cheaper but if the cost for an exclusive tour just like what you guys did is reasonable, we'd consider taking it instead. Hope you can give us an idea on the cost and if you could recommend a legitimate guide, I would greatly appreaciate it. Cheers!

@JoshEdwardsFilms Жыл бұрын

And thank you for taking the time to watch :) I really appreciate it and glad you enjoyed them. In terms of an exclusive tour, we didn't do that...it was just because of the pandemic, we were the only two in the group. In normal circumstances with more tourists, there may have been others with us. I have climbed in a group before and it's good fun because you get to meet others and it keeps the costs down. For an exclusive tour I'm not sure what it would cost, but in a group tour it's usually around the $150usd mark for 3 days 2 nights. Obviously the more group members, the cheaper it gets. If you want to shoot me an email, I can send you over the contact details of my guide Naho: JoshEdwardsFilms@gmail.com

Thanks so much for the kind words Jennifer, means a lot :) saw your comment on part one as well. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and glad it's helped prepare you a bit! It's an incredible hike - something that stays with you forever, I think. But yes, also quite tough haha. That's part of the fun and reward of it. Hope you have a good time!

great job, Mount Rinjani is not only one of the highest mountains in Indonesia. Mount Rinjani is one of the mountains that ever erupted with the eruption of one of the largest eruptions in the world. Mount Rinjani formerly known as Mount Samalas.

Your videos are amazing. To think that you alone took all those footage, and still continue to film during the climb. Really brilliant. I don't think I could manage Rinjani, your videos let me imagine I was there. Awesome, man!

@@JoshEdwardsFilms Since you're not far away, have you tried climbing Mount Kinabalu? I totally feel the same when you were describing the different plantations at different altitude on the mountain. That's how I felt climbing Mt Kinabalu as well. Having conquered Rinjani I think Mt Kinabalu will be easy for you. Though Kinabalu is higher but I think Rinjani's loose gravel makes it harder.

Thanks for the video bro really enjoyed that, reminded me of when I did it four years ago. How was the waste situation on the volcano when you went up this time?

@JoshEdwardsFilms 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks man! You're very, very welcome :) I appreciate you taking the time to watch and really glad that you enjoyed it. The waste question is a good one. When I first climbed in 2017 it was AWFUL. When I climbed last year filming these videos it was much, much better. I think there's a lot more awareness and conversation about the problem and they are trying harder. But I also think that there was less waste due to the fact nobody had been up there for years after the earthquake and then the pandemic. It'll be interesting to see what happens over the next few years with many more tourists coming back...

Amazing journey! Approximately how much does this cost and is it seasonal?

@JoshEdwardsFilms 2 жыл бұрын

Cheers Tom, really appreciate you taking the time to watch :) yeah it is seasonal. In the wet season between October and March they will close the mountain - you don't wanna be up there in the wrong weather 😂 so climb anytime between April and October, in the dry season 👍🏼 as for how much you pay, it really depends on the level of service you need and who you go with etc. As an international tourist I would say for three days and two nights anywhere between 2m to 3m IDR per person. Obviously the bigger the group of people, the price can come down a bit. That's to cover everything like transport, your porters, your food, tickets into the national park etc etc. Hope that helps!

@JoshEdwardsFilms Жыл бұрын

Hey Jessica, thank you! Appreciate you taking the time to watch and glad you enjoyed :) very excited for you to be hiking Rinjani - it's an amazing experience! Things to bring: Good, comfy walking/hiking shoes. Trainers aren't really good enough. Activewear t-shirt & shorts Hat, sunglasses and sunscreen Wooly hat, gloves, fleece/jumper, leggings/warm trousers, thick socks - don't be fooled. It can get REALLY cold up there at the top, so you need to have winter layers with you! Camera A few snacks Everything else like food, tent, sleeping bag etc should all be taken care of by your guides and porters. Hope this helps 😁
