Sendang Gile and Tiu Kelep waterfall trips and Rinjani crater rim treks from Senaru village, with local Lombok guides. Book on WhatsApp.
Senaru sits on Mount Rinjani's northern slopes at the top of the road up from the coast, and is the national park's other gateway village — the traditional Sasak hamlet of the same name still stands at its centre. Two of Lombok's best-known waterfalls, Sendang Gile and Tiu Kelep, are a walk from the village edge, which makes Senaru the one place where the trekking route and the waterfall route meet.
From Senaru we run the northern leg of the Lombok waterfall tour — Sendang Gile and Tiu Kelep are effectively the village's own waterfalls, with Benang Kelambu further south on the same day. Travellers basing themselves here are also well placed for the Rinjani crater rim trek, the beginner-friendly option that reaches the rim viewpoint without the pre-dawn summit push.
