The Kiulu River is grade II in the international white water rafting grading system and a good spot to begin your adventure. It is an hour and a half by road north of Kota Kinabalu. At the banks of the river, after a briefing on safety procedures, you will be equipped with safety helmets and life jackets. Other than for the thrill and excitement of the adventure, river rafting is also an opportunity to see the forests and landscape from a different vantage point. With headwaters from Mount Kinabalu, this river is suitable for newcomers to this exciting sport. Deep pools punctuate the rapids and you can indulge in body-rafting or swimming. The river journey is between 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on river-stage. The adventure will finally end at Kota Kinabalu.
