The Chairperson of the Indonesian Mountain Guides Association, Rahman Mukhlis, emphasized that Mount Rinjani is not suitable for beginner climbers.

His statement came in response to growing discussions on social media following the recent incident involving Juliana de Souza Pereira Marins, a 27-year-old Brazilian citizen, on the volcano located in Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara.

Rahman explained that Mount Rinjani, which rises to 3,726 meters above sea level, has a moderate to high level of difficulty. He said that anyone wishing to climb Indonesia's second-highest volcano should have prior experience hiking other mountains, particularly those over 2,500 meters.

"Especially mountains with an altitude of 2,500 meters," he said on Friday, June 27, 2025.
