SEMBALUN WILDFLOWERS WALK
2 Days 1 Night
We invite you to join our two day walk through the
grassland and tropical forests that clothe the ancient Sembalun
caldera and to camp the night in a hidden valley on the lower slopes
of Mt. Rinjani. This beautiful nature hike wanders through the
hills, providing an unforgettable Rinjani experience for
the less ambitious walker.
Led by local guides, the first day
starts early from the Rinjani information centre in east Lombok
village of Sembalun Lawang(1,156m) and eastern gateway into Gunung
Rinjani National park. Winding through agricultural fields belonging
to the community, the walk climbs gently up 100m. climb to the
undulating caldera rim from where there are sweeping views of
Sembalun Lawang and Sembalun Bumbung villages.
Formerly Sembalun was
known for coffee production until the crop was changed to garlic to
take advantage of the garlic boom in the early 1990s.
On clear days
many Lombok villages can be seen to the north with the ocean beyond. To the west is the soaring summit of mount Rinjani
(3,72m).
 After a couple of hours walk from
Sembalun, reach the grassland area of Dandaun, home of wild animals
particularly groups of wild pig. October is their breeding season.
After another hour the walk arrives at the open grassland at Kanji
where various species of orchid flourish in the trees and the ground
is carpeted in wild flowers. Along the way the guide explains local
agricultural activities, such as the traditional of owners calling
their cows using only salt. After about there hours the trail
reaches our camp site at propok(1,600), a beautiful flat valley with
beautiful views of the topical forest. At sunset and early morning,
wild animals such as pigs, deer, various bird and, if you are
fortunate, even the rare black ebony leaf monkey may be observed
here.
Next day the walk returns through
the forest using a different route. Arrive in the afternoon at the
Rinjani information centre at Sembalun Lawang. A special feature of
this hike is to be accompanied by the local Pemangku (traditional
spritual leader) and on the way blessings are made in sacred places
to celebrate the creation of nature and ensure a safe
journey.
