The Rinjani Mountain Trekking Package through the Aik Berik Route is tailored for those who want to enjoy the beauty of Rinjani but with a different atmosphere compared to the two previously commonly traversed routes by climbers, Sembalun and Senaru.
The Aik Berik Route is an official route located in Central Lombok Regency.
Unfortunately, traversing the Aik Berik Route will not take you to Lake Segara Anak or the summit, only up to Pelawangan.
But don’t worry, the experience and natural beauty along the trekking route will not disappoint you. The other side of Rinjani is here!
