Trek to the summit of South East Asia's tallest mountain, Mount Kinabalu. Standing tall at 4095.2 metres, it towers over the Kinabalu National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is also the domain of the world's largest flower, the Rafflesia. However, it will require luck to see the latter, for they flower occasionally and only for a short period of time. Travel past the beautiful Crocker Mountains to reach the Kinabalu National Park, which is also home to the Poring Hot Springs.
Be prepared for some tough hiking and climbing, but if roughing it out in the wild is what sets your pulses racing, then every ounce of effort put in here to reach the summit is worth it! Feast your eyes on the spectacular natural vistas that await you at the summit of this mighty mountain. Rise before dawn if you want to be in time to catch a glorious sunrise. Reach out and you could almost touch the clouds from a height of close to 4000 meters! Begin the descent before the mists of the morning roll in, and carry back memories of a memorable mountain climb.
