Not every journey to Mount Rinjani begins on a crowded trail.
On its southern slopes lies a village that remains calm, green, and deeply connected to nature—Aik Berik Village.

For true explorers, Aik Berik is more than just a village. It is a quiet gateway to the grandeur of Mount Rinjani. The tourism route from this village offers a different beginning—where the first steps are accompanied by flowing water, towering trees, and crisp mountain air.

Here, the journey starts in silence rather than noise. Each footpath carries stories of protected forests, respected water sources, and a community that lives in harmony with its surroundings.

Aik Berik reminds travelers that approaching Rinjani is not only about reaching the summit, but about understanding the journey itself—how nature welcomes gently, and how humans learn to walk with humility.

For those seeking Rinjani in its most natural and meaningful form, Aik Berik is the perfect beginning.
