What to See in Rinjani
MIGHT TO SEE IN RINJANI
Gunung Rinjani National Park lies within
the major transition zone(Wallaceae) where the flora and fauna of South
East Asia make a dramatic transition that which is typical of
Australasia. The Park has a rich variety of plants and animals, although
they can be hard to spot due to the terrain and rainforest cover.
Sometimes it is seen early in the mornings the rare black Ebony leaf
monkey, known locally as Lutung.
The long tailed grey macaque or Kera is
common in Lombok and older males are seen on the crater rim. Rusaor deer
are forest dwellers and are occasionally seen along the Rinjani trek
trail. The smaller Barking deer or Kijang has an alarm call with a
distinct dog-like bark. Look for the disturbed ground where the Wild pig
or Babihutan has been foraging. Also found in the forest is the Leopard
cat or Bodok alas, Palm civet or Ujat and Porcupine or Landak.
A variety of colorful birds live in the
forests of the Park. Perhaps the best-known icon of the Park is the
Sulphur Crested Cockatoo that is not found any further west of Lombok.
Many of the forest-dwelling animals, insects, birds, civets and monkeys
owe their survival to the wild fig tree or Beringin as a provider of
food and shelter. The pine-like Casuarina species, pine, are a feature
of the grassy higher slopes. Orchids or Anggrekis also a feature of the
grassland areas, as is Edelweiss or BungaAbadi growing above the tree
line; it is a beautiful icon of the Park and one of our best-known
sub-alpine plants.
RINJANI MULANG PAKELEM CEREMONY
The annual Hindu ceremony of MulangPekelem, a heritage event in Lombok that held since the 18th century invasion and subsequent settlement of the island by Balinese from the kingdom of Karangasem, always attracts hundreds of celebrants.
The annual Hindu ceremony of MulangPekelem, a heritage event in Lombok that held since the 18th century invasion and subsequent settlement of the island by Balinese from the kingdom of Karangasem, always attracts hundreds of celebrants.
The 2006 ceremony, held late in the
year, attracted more than 500 celebrants to SegaraAnaklake, 1998 metres
above sea level in the crater of 3700-metre high Mt Rinjani.
The 200-metre deep lake is sacred to Hindus (as well as being a place of pilgrimage for Lombok’s majority Moslem population).
The 200-metre deep lake is sacred to Hindus (as well as being a place of pilgrimage for Lombok’s majority Moslem population).
In 2006, MulangPekelem was held on
November 5, ahead of the twin Hindu Galungan and Kuningan annual
festivals at the end of November and beginning of December. MulangPekelem is a ceremony in which prayers and offerings are made for
the safety and prosperity of the people. It dates from a time shortly
after the Hindu settlement in west Lombok in which the population was
afflicted by prolonged drought and an epidemic.
According to tradition, the king had an
apocalyptic vision and instituted a series of ceremonies in which gifts
of gold, silver and copper, in the shape of fish and prawns, were
offered to the gods at the lake, one of Indonesian Hinduism’s most
sacred places, before each rainy season (December to March). The
offerings and prayers request peace and prosperity for all. This year’s ceremony attracted followers from Bali and Java as well as Lombok.
HISTORY
The oldest recorded historical eruption
was in 1847. Previous to that, this was a very remote region indeed,
hence the lack of records.There was a spate of activity from 1994
to 1995 which resulted in the further growth of the crater cone
GunungBaru, since renamed Gunung Barujari (new- form Mountain). On
April, 27, 2009 Gunung Barujari became active again with the activity
continuing through to May 2009. The summit ascent routes were closed at
that time as the eruptions intensified with plumes of smoke and ash as
high as 8,000 m.
A Volcanic Explosive Index (VEI):2 rating was issued
for the activity between May and December 2009. The ascent routes
re-opened on September 14th 2009 but hiking routes down into the crater
lake were still deemed unsafe and remained closed.
In February 2010 observers at the Gunung
Rinjani Observation Post detected a smoke plume that rose 100 m from
the volcano. The activity in early 2010 is centered about Gunung
Barujari. On May 1st 2010 a column of smoke was again observed rising
from Rinjani issuing eruptions 1,300-1,600 meters tall with thick brown
color and strong pressure. On May 5th 2010 a possible ash plume rose to
an altitude of 5.5 km (18,000 ft) and drifted 150 km NW. Accordingly the
Center of Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation advised that
intermittent activity could produce ash plumes to 1,500 m (5,000 ft)
above the caldera. In light of this The Volcanic Explosive Index Alert
Level was raised to 2 with a recommendation that there be no activity
within a radius of 4 km from the eruption at Gunung Barujari.
RECENT ACTIVITY
Rinjani erupted three further times on
23 May 2010 with activity continuing until 24 May 2010. According to the
volcano’s official monitoring agency, ash from Mount Barujari was
reported as rising up to 2 km into the atmosphere and damaged crops.
Lava flowed into the caldera lake, pushing its temperature up from 21°C
to 35°C, while smoke spread 12 km. The volcano did not directly threaten
villagers during any of the eruptive activity in early 2010 however
access to some sections of the Mountain was officially closed or
restricted at some times.
LANDSCAPES
The lower and mid levels of the mountain
are quite heavily forested. Above the tree line though the slopes are
barren and rugged scree slopes and volcanic rock. The views of the
crater lake are quite breath-taking from the caldera rim, as is the
sunrise. From the absolute peak you can see Bali to the west and Sumbawa
to the east.
FLORA AND FAUNA
The lower and middle elevation slopes
are densely forested with typical tropical species, including species
which occupy the Wallace transitional region between the SE Asian and
Australasian flora. Fig trees are especially apparent in the lower
forests, as are the giant Syzigium Jambu, with the gnarled and
epiphyte-hung Engelhardia BakBakan becoming prominent in the higher
elevations. Casuarina woodland (cemara) takes over higher up and
eventually these give way to an alpine flora above the treeline.
Lombok is East of the Wallace Line and
some bird species with Australasian affinities are therefore apparent.
These include honey eaters, cockatoos and green hanging parrots, in
addition to species whose heartland is to the West including tits,
weavers and tailor-birds. Bird life can be difficult to observe here due
to the density of the forest, though if you have patience and are
practiced at mimicry many species can be tempted out from cover – if you
have the time to spare and the forbearance of your trekking partners.
The familiar long-tailed grey macaque
(the Bali temple monkey) is common right up to the crater rim. Of much
more interest is the rare ebony leaf monkey which inhabits these forests
and whose soft hooting contact call often provides a soothing backdrop
to the birdsong. Rusa deer and Muntjacs are more often heard than seen.
Rinjani Highlight
RINJANI NATIONAL PARK
The mighty Rinjani mountain is a massive
volcano which towers over the island of Lombok. A climb to the top is
one of the most exhilarating experiences you can have in Indonesia. At
3,726 meters tall, Mount Rinjani is the second highest mountain in
Indonesia. The climb to the top may not be easy but it’s worth it, and
is widely regarded as one of the best views in the country.
Part of the famous ‘ring of fire’ this
mountain also holds spiritual significance for the local people. It’s
thought that the name Rinjani comes from an old Javanese term for ‘God’.
Around the slopes of Rinjani there are lush forests sprinkled with waterfalls and surrounded by stunning scenery.
Within the mountain is a crescent shaped
lake, the breathtaking Segara Anak which is about 6km across at its
widest point. This lake of sulfur is located 600 meters below the crater
rim. Rising from the waters of this lake is a new volcano, Mt. Baru,
which is a result of a series of eruptions during the 1990’s. Segara
Anak is a spiritual place. The Balinese come here each year and perform a
ceremony called Pekelam where jewelry is placed in the lake as an
offering to the mountain spirit. The WetuTelu people also regard the
lake as holy and come here to pray on full moon nights.
Mt Rinjani lies within the GunungRinjani
National Park. The park covers 41,330 hectares and sits inside a major
bio-geographical transition zone (Wallace). This is where the tropical
flora and fauna of South East Asia meets that of Australasia. This
National Park was established in 1997 and is one of over 40 throughout
Indonesia.
For visitors, the three-day Rinjani trek
route from Senaru to the crater rim, down to the Crater Lake then on to
Sembalun Lawang, is considered one of the best treks in South East
Asia. More adventurous trekkers may want to head all the way to the
summit of the volcano. This is best reached from Sembalun Lawang and
takes four days, finishing up in Senaru.
To ensure that local communities benefit
from tourism revenue, the Rinjani Trek is managed by a partnership of
National Park officials, the public and private sectors of the Lombok
tourism industry and community representatives. Community run
cooperatives coordinate the Trek at the Rinjani Trek Center (RTC) in
Senaru and the Rinjani Information Center (RIC) in Sembalun Lawang.
Revenue from tourism activities and
entry fees is used for conservation, management and assisting the
National Park with maintenance of the Rinjani Trek, thus ensuring its
sustainability. This management model is unique in Indonesia and
considered an example of best practice of eco-tourism in Indonesia.

This easy half – day walk explores the foothills of spectacular Rinjani volcano in Lombok’s northern district of Bayan.
Starting near the border of Gunung Rinjani National Park, your route follow old pathways amongst shady bamboo groves and village gardens before entering a wide, open landscape of rice terraces and palms. Following a winding irrigation channel you reach the lush rainforest of the famous Sendang Gila Waterfall Reserve. Along the way, discover tropical plants as your guide explains how the local people make practical use of them.
You came across the cheeky long tailed monkeys and, with a bit of luck, may even spot the rare ebony leaf monkey. Passing small hamlets where age-old traditions are practiced, you will gain insight into the colorful village life of the Sasak.
There is always something interesting happening here as you meet local people and admire traditional houses along the way. Make sure you bring your camera-the views are simply spectacular.
Each turn of the track offers new vistas as finally Rinjani-the sacred mountain of the Sasak people-emerges majestically above rice terraces and rainforest. This natural and cultural diversity makes the Panorama Walk an unforgettable Lombok experience.
