Kubah National Park
Taman Negara Kubah
A mountain rainforest 22 km west of Kuching, known for its palm species, waterfalls and night frog-spotting.
Kubah National Park is centered on sandstone mountains such as Gunung Serambu and is home to nearly a hundred species of palm, making it one of the most palm-diverse areas in Borneo. Trails lead from the headquarters to waterfalls and a mountaintop lookout. In the evening, the Frog Pond area is a good place to see many frog species endemic to Borneo, and hornbills are occasionally spotted. Admission is about RM 20 for foreign visitors. Staying overnight in the park allows for night viewing. It's about 40 minutes by taxi from Kuching and is often combined in a day trip with the nearby Matang Wildlife Centre.
