📅 Itinerary
Day 1: Ascending into Stillness
Route: Senaru Basecamp → Sangakreang Ridge (Camping)
07:00 – 08:00 | Briefing & Intention Setting
Meet at the Senaru basecamp. Led by Mr. Awenk, the opening session includes intention setting, mindful breathing, and a spiritual introduction to Mount Rinjani’s deeper philosophy.
08:00 – 12:00 | Trek through the Senaru Forest
Begin your ascent through ancient tropical forest trails. In silence or gentle conversation, engage in walking meditation — a practice of conscious steps, attuned to birdsong, breeze, and breath.
12:00 – 13:00 | Forest Lunch Experience
Rest beneath a large forest tree for a nourishing lunch. Guides share stories and sacred folklore that have been passed down through generations.
13:00 – 15:00 | Final Stretch to Sangakreang Peak
Continue climbing to reach Sangakreang Peak (~2,200 masl) — a lesser-known, deeply tranquil spot with panoramic views of North Lombok.
15:30 – 17:00 | Sunset Meditation & Journaling
As the sun dips low, sit in quiet reflection, guided by the silence of the mountains. Journal your thoughts, intentions, or gratitude.
18:00 – 19:30 | Dinner & Free Time
Enjoy a warm meal prepared by the porter team. Afterward, feel free to rest, stargaze, or write under the open sky.
20:00 – 21:00 | Campfire Circle & Sharing
Gather for a gentle sharing circle around a small fire. Share a story, a hope, or simply presence. The night ends with a collective prayer or affirmation.
21:00 | Night Rest
Sleep in tents under the stars. Let the mountain cradle you in deep rest and renewal.
Day 2: Descending with a Renewed Soul
Route: Sangakreang Ridge → Senaru Village
05:30 – 06:30 | Sunrise Meditation
Greet the new day with a silent sunrise meditation at the ridge. Breathe deeply, absorb the energy, and feel the renewal.
07:00 – 08:00 | Light Breakfast & Reflection
Enjoy a simple breakfast and some quiet journaling or personal prayer.
08:30 – 11:30 | Descent to Senaru Village
Trek down through the forest, moving slowly and mindfully. Let each step anchor the serenity of the experience within you.
12:00 – 13:00 | Lunch & Closing Ceremony
Back at basecamp, enjoy a closing meal together. Each participant writes one word — a wish or affirmation — and offers it to the earth or stream, symbolizing new beginnings and integration.
