Hiking activities on Mount Rinjani in Lombok have officially resumed after a temporary closure, marking the reopening of one of Indonesia’s most popular trekking destinations. The reopening follows a routine conservation closure period, during which authorities carried out environmental recovery and trail maintenance. Mount Rinjani is now accessible again through several official routes, attracting both domestic and international hikers.

As part of improved safety and environmental management, authorities have implemented stricter regulations regarding the ratio of guides and porters to hikers. The policy aims to ensure better supervision, enhance visitor safety, and minimize environmental impact along the trekking routes. By controlling group sizes and requiring adequate support personnel, park management seeks to create a more organized and sustainable hiking system.

The reopening is also expected to revive local tourism and economic activities in surrounding areas such as Sembalun, where many residents depend on trekking-related services. However, officials emphasize that conservation remains a priority, urging all visitors to comply with regulations and maintain responsible behavior during their यात्रा. The new measures reflect a broader effort to balance tourism growth with long-term ecological sustainability on Mount Rinjani.
