4. Nusantara Hotel Sembalun
The location is beautiful, You can see the Rinjani peak and in the morning it's quite spectacular. Also, the village is different from the other villages from the area, since it's more focused on tourists and you can find a couple of places to stay and eat. The view from Bukit Selong Rice Field Viewpoint, which is around 3km away is breathtaking. They also have a pool, but it was too cold outside to use it. This is at 1100 meters altitude, so even if you are traveling in the summer, pack some serious clothes for it, it gets really cold at night.”
Tourism Object Close to Rinjani Mountain
1. Sendang Gile Waterfall
Sendang Gile is impressive in its
own right. It’s a two-tiered waterfall with massive force and although
it wasn’t even on my original radar for things to do in Lombok, I think
it’s one of the best waterfalls on Lombok that I visited.
We hung out here for about an hour, even crossing the river to get
underneath the waterfall. GoPro is a good option here because of the
mist and sprays from the gushing water got my Sony A7ii pretty wet.
It was October when we visited and there was no one else at the
falls. This was our experience all over Lombok for the most part. It
seems like this waterfall could be busy in peak season because there
were lots of empty huts at the base of the falls, which I assume are
full of coconuts and snacks on a busy day.
2. Tiu Kelep Waterfall
Tiu Kelep is a waterfall I knew
about because it’s not one you forget when you see it posted online all
the time. It’s an epic amphitheater with one of the most dramatic falls
I’ve seen in Indonesia. As soon as I turned the last corner and laid my
eyes on Tiu Kelep, I was pretty overwhelmed, to say the least.
Water flows down, seemingly through the wall, only to be upstaged by a
forceful flow of water that streaks diagonally across the falls. Vines
have taken over the rock walls and we felt like deep-jungle explorers
despite only having to walk for 30 minutes to reach Tiu Kelep Waterfall.
3. Selong Hill
Aside from Pergasingan Hill, other beautiful hills reside in Sembalun
Lawang Village including Selong. Both of them become proud of East
Lombok Regency and offer similar natural beauties, in fact. Selong Hill,
though, becomes a nice choice for those who want to witness Rinjani
Mountain from afar feel the comfy atmosphere of nature. Not only the
hill is suitable for sightseeing, it is perfect for photography as well.
For some people, it even becomes a good site to find inspiration and
find the peace.
The Nuance
In terms of size, Selong Hill is shorter and smaller than Pergasingan.
That does not mean it is inferior to its sibling, as it offers similar
beauty and landscape. In fact, tourists may see a formation of bamboo
trees when heading to the top of the hill. Plus, vast views of local
farms can be seen up there! Like its neighboring hill, Selong is
suitable for camping too (even though the number of campers is smaller
than that of Pergasingan Hill). What is more? The hill is located near
to a famous village called Beleq, which is famous for its culture.
Exploring Selong Hill
The most common reason to visit Selong Hill is to explore all parts of
the hill including Beleq Village. The local activities like farming
even become a unique attraction for tourists to enjoy there. Not to
mention the vast scenery of the paddy fields looks so majestic from
above. What is more? During trekking, tourists may pass through a small
forest as well. As for beginners, they must learn some information
before trekking, especially the spot where they should start.
Before going up to Selong Hill, tourists should gather in Beleq
Village. One thing, they need to pay the entrance fee before getting the
permission to explore the hill. From there, they can start trekking by
taking the available path (the stairs). Here is the fact. Two spots are
available for them to visit and the location is not quite far from each
other. Both of them even offer similar natural attractions and scenery
including local farms surrounded by nearby hills. Moreover, a renowned
neighboring hill (Pergasingan) is seen clearly from those sites.
Aside from sightseeing, tourists come to Selong Hill to enjoy camping
too. Despite camping is not as popular as in other hills, some people
are fond of Selong to do such activity. For those who do not want to
spend the night on the hill, they can choose to rest in Beleq Village
instead. After all, the villagers are friendly and they provide good
foods and accommodations to tourists.
4.. Bukit Pergasingan
Explore the unique natural landscape of
East Lombok to the top of Pergasingan Hill in a day. If you love hiking
and nature, there is no better way to get the most
out of your time in Lombok than with a 6-7 hours adventure in the
stunning Sembalun Valley. Kick off with an early morning hotel pick up and head to discover the 1200 meter high plateau
framed by volcanoes and mountain peaks.
Start your hike up to the top of
Pergasingan - known as one of the best spots for soft trekking in the
region. The flat field at the top of the hill is perfect for building a
campsite and
taking a break over a delicious local lunch. After the break, get
ready for the journey down the hill and a convenient drop off right at
your hotel.
The stunning natural scenery, rice-field, the foggy Sembalun village is enhanced by the view of Mount Rinjani.
Pergasingan hill is located on a hill north of the Sembalun Village
with 1,700 meter above sea level, usually some visitor use this place
for training before trek Rinjani Mountain, but sometime
this hill has been in use for an extreme sport such as paragliding,
mountain bike etc. You can enjoy a beautiful scenery around Pergasingan
Hill, also known as paradise for photographers.

Best Rinjani Trekking Package
This package were suitable for the trekker which has long trekking experience and have long time fitness schedule.
Noted :
1. want to go to summit in 2D1N trip, then you
would be good to going via Sembalun, which features an easier climb (mostly
flat) through the grasslands to the base of the summit. The downside is
that you would be walking under the sun the entire time, the trek simply easier for you and saving more energy.
2. If you require for not getting to summit in 2D1N,
you should go through Senaru. This will take you through a steeper
non-stop climb through the rainforest, and a fairly difficult rocky
climb in the last leg. But it’s a more beautiful and shaded route than
Sembalun. You cannot reach the summit in two days if you go through
Senaru though.
We do not recommend to get to summit if you are doing a 2D1N. While it’s possible, you’d be very rushed and more tired since you’ll have to do a lot of climbing on the second day.
The best seller package which very suitable for any kind of the trekker from beginner or expert one although this kind of package were simple one. the benefit you can get by choosing this kind of Rinjani Package :
1. Keep more time and trekking while enjoying the beautiful view
2. Easy to chose the one of both cage "Senaru or Sembalun"
3. Able for Beginner or Advance also Expert
4. Require earlier to Summit then you take Sembalun
5. Want get better view and long trekking time but good view show then take Senaru
This is what most people choose for trekking, then you do not have to worry about
choosing as you would be hitting both sides anyway. However, if you
are wondering whether to start from Sembalun or Senaru, it probably
comes down to when you want to summit. If you want to summit earlier in
the trip, then choose Sembalun. If not, then choose Senaru.
The last and the enjoying trekking package for the people which has any trekking aim not only to getting the trekking challenge but for another aim, long time spend will be more enjoyable then other while you saving more energy.
Find the best place for take rest or making any planning by themselves on the mountain side, this package mostly take by the people who really want spend the time for holiday without any rushed time to spend. the first motto that enjoying the beautiful scenery on Rinjani Mountain.
