Active volcano & second-highest peak in Indonesia
Even from the airplane or from Bali you can see the majestic summit of Mount Rinjani which is located on the island Lombok in Indonesia.
It is the second-highest peak in Indonesia with 3,726 meters (12,224 feet) above sea level and a significant cultural and spiritual landmark to Indonesians, especially the people from Lombok.
The mountain is part of the Rinjani National Park, offering a diverse and stunning landscape that encompasses lush forests, expansive savannah, volcanic terrain, and a beautiful crater lake known as Segara Anak.
The most popular activity in this national is a multi-day trek up to the summit or the crater rim. When hiking you will also see many Indonesian climbing the mountain.
