A very nice peace of information given here. The article and snaps remind me the days when I was on tour of Himachal Leh and Srinagar. That was my first ever tour in any hilly destination. Now after reading your blog, I want to experience the destination as well. Please provide me full details how can I go there and which is the best time?
Mount Rinjani is located in Lombok Island,West Nusa tengara, INDONESIA. if you wanna go there, there is no flight to Lombok directly from your country, I think you should read
