Packing List

Here is an important List When you climb Mount Rinjani

Trekking Mount Rinjani is different than other mountains in Indonesia. All climbers from abroad must use porters to carry all logistics and trekking equipment such as food, drink, cooking gears, tent, mattress, sleeping bag, and other equipment. Climbers only bring a backpack to carry their own stuff.

It is important that you are well prepared and equipped for the climb to Mount Rinjani to ensure your maximum comfort and enjoyment. We suggest you bring your personal stuff, only what you need during the climb, in your small backpack. Make sure that it is less than 5 kg or unless it is going to make your climb harder.
