Itinerary : |
Day 01: Singapore - Kota Kinabalu
Depart by scheduled flight to Kota Kinabalu, the
state capital of Sabah, also known as 'The Land Below
the Wind'. Upon arrival, meet by out representative and
transfer to the hotel of your choice.
|
Day 02: Conquer Mount Kinabalu (Breakfast, Packed
Lunch, Dinner)
After breakfast, take a
scenic drive passing through rich padi fields and rustic
villages over the ridges of the Crocker Range to the
foothills of Mt Kinabalu at 5,000ft to arrive at the
park headquarters at Kundasang to register for your
climb. Thereafter, transfer back to Timphohon Gate
located at 1866m above sea level, which is the starting
point of the Summit Trail. The 4 - 6 hours of guided
trek will bring you through various vegetation zones,
steep staircase, gnarled tree-roots to mossy world of
drifting clouds and orchid draped trees, where pitcher
plants and rhododendrons abound. Located at 3335m above
sea level is Laban Rata Resthouse, where you will have
your deserving night sleep (dormitory style bunk beds
with heater, common bathroom, hot water).
|
Day 03: Mount Kinabalu - Kota Kinabalu (Breakfast,
Lunch)
At about 3am in the morning, you will begin your
final ascend of the Summit of Borneo - the Low's Peak at
4095m. Along the trail to the summit, you will be
amazed with the incredible mountain backdrop of teeth
and fangs, gully, precipice, cliff, plateau, gorge,
peak, projectile and dwarfed vegetation at this
altitude contrast sharply with the enormous silver
black dome of the summit. As you wait in the cold at
the summit, dawn gradually creeps over the horizon,
illuminating the darkness with the light of the new
day. By 6am, you will be able to clearly see most of
the magnificent peaks and this usually is the best
time to take some memorable pictures. Make sure you
descend down to Laban Rata Resthouse for check-out
following breakfast. Start climbing down at 10am and
you should arrive at Timphohon Gate at about 1pm,
pick-up and transfer to the park headquarters here you
will be given a colorful certificate (only if you
reach the summit). After lunch, you will be picked up
at about 4pm for transfer to Kota Kinabalu hotel (same
as your choice in Day 1).
|
Day 04: Kota Kinabalu - Singapore (Breakfast)
Bid farewell to Kota
Kinabalu as you will be transferred to the airport for
your flight back to Singapore.
