About the trip

This four-night tour with G Adventures takes you from Kota Kinabalu to Mt Kinabalu, Malaysia's highest mountain at 4,096 metres and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. After settling into your accommodation, you’ll spend two full days hiking through rainforest and high-altitude terrain, carrying your own day pack while your main luggage stays behind.

There’s time to notice the diverse plants and birds along the way, as well as the cold wind that bites sharper near the summit. The reward is a dawn climb to catch sunrise from near the top – a quiet moment that can quietly upend previous ideas of dawn. The trip finishes back in Kota Kinabalu, where your group will have opportunities to eat and relax before departing.

G Adventures runs this as a small-group escorted tour, usually no more than 15 travellers, with a Chief Experience Officer on hand throughout. Accommodation is basic in places, especially high up the mountain, reminding you travelling isn’t always glamour, but it’s certainly memorable.
