Every year, Mount Rinjani takes a break for recovery. But that doesn’t mean your adventure in Lombok has to stop! If you are looking for a challenging hike with breathtaking views while Rinjani is closed, Mount Setampol (2,608 m) is your perfect destination.
Why Choose Mount Setampol Trekking?
Mount Stampol is located in North Lombok, on the outer slopes of Mount Rinjani National Park., Mt. Setampol offers a trekking experience that rivals the beauty of Rinjani. Standing at 2,608 meters, it provides a panoramic view of the Rinjani caldera and the lush valleys of East Lombok.
Stunning Rinjani Caldera Views
From the summit of Setampol, you get a front-row seat to the majestic Mount Rinjani and the famous Segara Anak Lake from a different perspective. It’s a photographer’s paradise!
Shorter but Challenging
Unlike the multi-day Rinjani expedition, Setampol can be conquered in a 2-day, 1-night trip or even a long day hike. It is perfect for those who want a high-altitude experience without the 3-day commitment.
Rich Biodiversity and Local Culture
The trail passes through ancient forests and local plantations. You will experience the authentic Sasak hospitality and see flora and fauna that are unique to the Sembalun region.
What to Expect on the Mt. Setampol Trail
The journey typically starts from Sembalun Village. You will trek through:
- Tropical Rain Forests: Cool shade and diverse wildlife.
- Savanna Ridges: Golden grass fields with wide-open views.
- The Summit (2,608m): An incredible spot for sunrise.
