Borneo

Introduction

This exotic jewel of South East Asia is a paradise of lofty mountains, beautiful flowers, lush rainforest, picturesque bamboo groves and deserted beaches. Kinabalu, the highest mountain in South East Asia, offers a unique climbing experience and sensational views across the island.

Don't miss:

  • The endemic flora and fauna, including the world-famous orang utans;
  • Sunrise from the summit of Mount Kinabalu;
  • Colourful markets and friendly villages.

Kuoni treks to Borneo focus on the Kota Kinabalu area and the mountain climb itself (from Tamparuli, via local villages and constantly changing landscapes, to 13,500ft) - a tough, complex itinerary, but amazingly rewarding.

Challenge Grade: Tough (see DESTINATIONS homepage for full explanation)
