Buses from Mandalika terminal in Sweta terminate at ANYER , from where bemos (Rp1500) and ojek (Rp5-6000) run to the neighbouring villages of BATU KOQ and SENARU (about 86km from Mataram). Both have accommodation spread out for several kilometres along the road: Segara Anak is the most northerly and furthest from the mountain, while Bale Bayan Senaru lies right at the end of the road where the path up the mountain begins. Places on the east of the road generally have the best views towards the mountain. All will help you arrange your trek, rent out gear, find porters and store your stuff, and most have small restaurants attached. Just to the south of Pondok Senaru, a small path heads east to the river and Sendang Gile waterfall , where you can bathe, although the water is pretty chilly. The traditional village at Senaru, a fenced compound with houses of bamboo and thatch set out in rows, next to the Bale Bayan Senaru, is also worth visiting.
