Borneo Crocker Range

Kinabalu Canopy Walkway

Kinabalu Park, now proclaimed as a World Heritage Site, cover an area of 754 square kilometres possesses the highest mountain in Malaysia bringing with it a diverse range of temperatures and climate with all its exotic plants, birds and insects with new species found every year. Also visit Poring Hot Springs on the southern boundary of the Park and maybe take a walk on the Canopy Walkway high up in the treetops.

The jagged granite peaks of Mt. Kinabalu (4095m) towers above one of the most biologically diverse areas in the world. Nominated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, Kinabalu Park is a natural wonder that offers day visitors a glimpse into the fascinating and often unique world of plant and animal life within the park.

The montane oak and chestnut forest at park headquarters gives way to lowland dipterocarp forest at Poring on the eastern boundary. Enjoy a short trek through the rainforest and witness life in the treetops as you walk along the 100ft high Canopy Walkway (If closed, it will be replaced with a visit to the Tropical Garden).

It is a 30 minutes uphill trek to get to the canopy walkway. Those who find this walk strenous may opt to sit by the springs. Bring a light jacket as the temperature at the Park may drop to below 24 and good walking shoes.
