Permits for Mount Rinjani cost 13 USD per person per day, and these fees are set by the national park authority. Every hiker must have a valid permit to enter the mountain, and the total price depends on how many days your trek lasts. A two day trek requires a two day permit, while a three day trek requires a three day permit. These permits help support trail maintenance, ranger salaries, waste management, and the overall protection of the national park.
For a 2 day and 1 night trek, the permit cost is 26 USD per person. This applies to both the Crater Rim and the Summit routes. For a 3 day and 2 night trek, the permit cost is 39 USD per person. This is required for the Summit and Lake route and the Torean route. Permits must be arranged in advance through a licensed trekking company, as hikers cannot purchase them directly at the entrance.
The permit fees are mandatory for all visitors and must be included in the total cost of your trek. Without a valid permit, entry to the trail is not allowed, and rangers actively check for proper registration. These fees ensure the mountain remains protected and that the trekking system operates safely and responsibly for everyone.
