Day 1, Thursday, 5th April<br />
Leave Singapore at 15:45 flying Silkair to Lombok. Arrive at 18:30, transfer<br />
to 4-star Beach Hotel.<br />
Day 2, Good Friday, 6th April<br />
We leave the hotel at 06:00 for Sembalun village to fetch our porters. At<br />
09:30 we start to trek to Base Camp 2. On the way you won’t find any trees,<br />
it’s just short grass. So it’s hot when you are walking. At Base Camp 2 you<br />
can enjoy about an hour’s break for lunch (and have some cakes). Then we<br />
continue our trek to the rim, which we will reach at about 17:00. We have<br />
dinner with special ‘mountain food’ and settle in for our first night‘s rest.<br />
Day 3, Saturday, 7th April<br />
At 03:00 we start trekking to the summit of Mount Rinjani. The icy wind<br />
blowing across the exposed slopes and the small round balls of volcanic<br />
rock that make up our path make the climb exceedingly difficult, to say<br />
the least. Once at the top the startling beauty of our surroundings is aweinspiring.<br />
We have about one hour at the summit, then we start our descent,<br />
looking forward to breakfast. After breakfast, we go to Segara Anak Lake<br />
where we can swim in the lake and <strong>relax</strong> in hot spring water. At 15:00 we<br />
begin our climb to the rim of Senaru which takes about two and a half hours.<br />
Spend the second night at the rim of Senaru.<br />
Day 4, Sunday, 8th April<br />
We have breakfast, enjoying the sunrise and eating a special mountain jaffle<br />
or pancake, then we trek back to Senaru village. At around noon we reach<br />
the village, and by 15:00 you will be back at the hotel.<br />
Day 5, Monday, 9th April<br />
Laze around at the beach or go to the spa to soothe your tired muscles. At<br />
17:00 we leave for the airport. We arrive in Singapore at 22:00.<br />
