Welcome to the
Mighty Mountain of Indonesia
|

|
Lombok
Island: |
|
 |
|
Lombok lies
directly east of Bali across the Lombok
Strait. The island is roughly the same size
as Bali, but rather than having a line of
large volcanoes, Lombok has one massive
volcano named Gunung Rinjani, which
dominates the skyline.

Mount
Rinjani National Park: |
|
|
|
Lombok has
one huge volcano, Gunung Rinjani (3726m),
which is even taller than Bali’s Gunung
Agung. Surrounded by forest, but itself
consisting of bare trails and summits,
Gunung Rinjani is a popular place to hike.
At the top of the mountain sits Segara Anak,
the mountain lake 8kms long. The slopes from
the mountain cover 65kms across the north of
Lombok and make a great place for some peace
and quiet. Trekking to the summit of Rinjani
is a 3-day trip and can be done with the aid
of a local guide, or with a tour group. It
is the most challenging hike in Bali an
Lombok. There are 2 main access points which
are Senaru to the north, or Sembalun Lawang
to the east.

Gili Islands: |
|
|
|
The three Gili
Islands are a small-scale backpacker mecca and Lombok's most
popular tourist destination. The islands are very relaxed
and laid-back, with countless little beachside cafes playing
reggae and serving up banana pancakes, and no cars or
motorbikes to disturb the peace. The flip side of the coin
is that as they exist solely to cater for travellers,
they're also rather anonymous (you might as
well be at anywhere) and, aside from
snorkeling and diving, there's little if
anything to do. Note that there are no ATMs
on the islands, so bring plenty of cash with
you.
