Overview
The Pergasingan Hill trek is tailored to those who seek a less challenging yet equally rewarding experience. This is a 1 day trek with stops at waterfalls & strawberry fields.
Pergasingan Hill, standing tall amidst the sprawling rice fields of Sembalun, offers an exhilarating climb that is sure to bring joy to your adventurous heart. Rising to approximately 1750 meters, we’ll ascend about 600 meters up, a climb that typically lasts 1.5 hours. Some of the most amazing in all of Lombok!
This trek is nestled in Sembalun, not far from Mount Rinjani. So close, in fact, that we cross paths with the launch point for the Mount Rinjani Trek. The majestic sight of the huge volcano in the backdrop on the other side of the valley adds another dimension to the beauty of our Pergasingan Hill Trek. The locals call this trek ‘Bukit Pergasingan’, translating to Pergasingan Hill.
This trek is only for groups of 2 or more only. We do not accept solo trekkers for this trek.
