Discover the Deal
Set off on the journey of a lifetime with a trip to Mount Kinabalu, which stands as the tallest peak of the region between the Himalayas and Papua New Guinea. To ease into the trip, relax at the pristine Poring Hot Springs, or embark on a canopy walk to appreciate the breathtaking nature trails.
Travel to Kinabalu Park, where you can stretch your legs and visit the park's visitor centre. The next day, set off on the hike towards Laban Rata, where the trek starts within the thick rainforests and steep trails. After approximately 5 - 7 hours of strenuous hiking, savor a delicious buffet dinner, then drift off to sleep in a basic mountain hut located at 3,272m.
The final stretch to the top requires rising early, so you can catch the stunning sunrise after reaching the peak. The descent takes approximately 5 - 7 hours, so be prepared for a tough, yet satisfying trek. Once returning to the Kinabalu Park Headquarters for lunch is in sight, make your way back to Kota Kinabalu for a night of R&R before heading to Gaya Island for 5 nights of sun, sea and sand!
The trip offers the perfect combination of nature, wilderness, and self-fulfillment through this breathtaking Borneo adventure.
