KINABALU PARK & PORING HOT SPRING

-
Poring Hot Spring
Hello Everyone! The Poring Hot Springs happens to be one of the most popular weekend retreats for locals. Part of the kinabalu National Park, the springs are located some 43 kilometres away from park headquaters; this man made attraction is set in the jungle, and the steaming sulfurous waters are channeled into concrete pools and tubs. Some people may find this a welcome respite from the outdoors yet there are others who feel that the ponds are anticlimactic; either way thesprings are indelibly relaxing. 

Kinabalu Park
This tour takes you on a trek across the mountainous Crocker Range and along the way the view of the rambling hills and blue skies is a sure-fire hit; you can even get a good look at majestic Mount Kinabalu - the tallest Southeast Asian peak. When you arrive at the park, take a guided nature walk down its trails before you end up at the Poring Hot Springs. Ease your tired muscles as you soak in the invigorating waters of the hot sulfur springs. The tour wraps up with a walk across the 41-metre-high canopy walk of the park which offers a fabulous view of the Borneo rain forest'sflora and fauna.

The Orang Utan's Hi guys! Sightings of Orang Utans in the wild are rare, due to their gentle and shy nature. Over the years, they have become an endangered species due to hunting and logging activities.  Welcome To Sepilok! It is with this realisation that the Sepilok Orang Utan Sanctuary was erected, where young, orphaned and captured Orang Utans are rehabilitated before being released back into the wilds. Set in 43 square metres of protected rainforest at edge of Kabili Sepilok Forest Reserve, it is the world's largest Orang Utan centre, giving visitors the opportunity to watch these adorable creatures up close in their natural habitat and a chance to interact with them. Administered by the Wildlife Department of Sabah, this centre also more focuses on educating the public on matters concerning other endangered species. Reference: OrangUtanAppealUK, (n.d).
