Rinjani, Volcanic peak in Lombok, Indonesia

Mount Rinjani rises 3,726 meters above sea level, featuring a large caldera containing the deep blue waters of Segara Anak lake at 2,000 meters elevation.

The volcano's massive eruption in 1257 through the Samalas vent produced substantial geological changes and affected global climate patterns, leading to widespread crop failures.

The Sasak people of Lombok maintain strong spiritual connections to Mount Rinjani, performing traditional ceremonies near the sacred Segara Anak crater lake throughout the year.

Trekking expeditions to Mount Rinjani operate from April to November during the dry season, with guided tours lasting between two to four days to reach the summit.

The 41,330-hectare Rinjani National Park houses specific wildlife species, including the recently discovered Rinjani scops owl, found nowhere else on Earth.
