Mount Mulu Summit Trek

Gunung Mulu

A 2,376-meter sandstone peak. The four-day, three-night summit trek crosses several forest zones and is the longest hiking route in the national park.

Mount Mulu rises to about 2,376 meters and is the second-highest peak in Sarawak. Unlike the surrounding limestone mountains, it is made of sandstone and shale. The one-way route to the summit is about 24 kilometers and usually takes four days and three nights. The trek passes through lowland dipterocarp forest, montane oak forest, mossy forest, and alpine scrub. Pitcher plants and many orchid species can be seen along the way. Licensed guides and porters must be booked in advance. Camp facilities are basic, so you need to bring your own food and sleeping bag. The trek is very demanding physically.
