Kinabalu Park and Poring Hot Spring
Itinerary
Meet at hotel lobby and depart for Kinabalu Park & Poring Hot Springs. The journey will take approximately 2 ½ hours passing through villages, paddy fields along the Crocker Range. A brief stopover at Nabalu, a collection of native stalls selling fruits, vegetables, local produce and handicraft. It’s an opportunity to observe the local stall activities. At Kinabalu Park, enjoy the cool and refreshing mountain air, if day is clear a majestic view of Mount Kinabalu, the highest mountain in South East Asia.
Proceed for a guided walk along the nature trails with the park naturalist. While walking, listen to the sounds of the jungle and observe nature's plants, trees, orchids and butterflies. Kinabalu Park boasts an estimated 4,500 species of plants which includes 1,500 species of orchids, 77 of which are endemic to Kinabalu. The park also supports 289 species of birds and 290 different types of butterflies. We lunch at Fairy Garden Restaurant.
After lunch, proceed for an hour drive passing by Kundasang, Sabah’s vegetables growing valley to reach Poring Hot Spring. Take the opportunity to hike up to the Treetop Canopy and experience the height of 41 meters from the forest’s floor and the length of 157.6 meters - the famous Canopy Walk - for a bird’s eye view of the rainforest below. After finishing the trek, take a dip in the outdoor Japanese style bathtub filled with running sulphured water rising from the earth's depth and soak in the self-mixed warm water believed to have therapeutic effect. Thereafter, depart for Kota Kinabalu and transfer back to hotel.
