TESTIMONIALS
What a fantastic trip. No roads staff were fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble. they paid for taxis that they did not have too. Peter Miller is an exceptional host. You should be shouting about this one to all spice members. Ones that had been to grand canyon said this was better.  I’ve been lucky enough to travel all over but this was the best holiday of my life. Thank you. Tony (UK)

OVERVIEW
Famed for its tremendous beauty and eerie isolation, Mount Rinjani is Indonesia's second highest mountain outside Irian Jaya. Although it is a dominant geographical phenomenon, its peak is rarely seen from the low lands, as it is often shrouded in cloud.

The Mount Rinjani Trekking track is one of Asia's best kept secrets. Comparable to more famous mountain tracks, Rinjani offers the adventurous awesome scenery, waterfalls, rain forests, wildlife, hot springs, caves, demanding hiking, pristine lakes, interesting culture and of course a volcano.

Gunung Rinjani is considered by all in Lombok and Bali as sacred. It is believed that the Gods reside on its summit and that the hot springs that bubble from it contain remarkable healing properties. It is for these reasons that the trek up Rinjani is far more important than just the climb itself; it is a pilgrimage to the Gods and all their powers.

No Roads Expeditions takes small groups through this wonderful national park to the summit of Mount Rinjani. We are the only trekking company that takes you that much further, to the summit of a truly magnificent mountain.

We are also proudly establishing Indoneisa's first Clothing Bank on the island of Lombok. For each client signing up for the Rinjani expedition, No Roads Expeditions will donate a warm and water proof jacket to the Clothing Bank. If you are interested in this project please click here.
