Dry Season: The Best Time for Trekking
The best time to hike Mount Rinjani is during the dry season, which usually runs from April to December. During these months, the weather is generally sunny, the trekking trails are dry, and visibility is much clearer for enjoying the scenery.
The peak trekking season is between June and August. During this period, hikers can experience:
Beautiful sunrise and sunset views
Clear skies for photography
Comfortable camping conditions
Safer trekking trails
Stunning views of Segara Anak Lake and the summit
However, because this is the busiest season, trekkers are advised to book guides and permits in advance.
