4D3N Mount Kinabalu Trek - Premier Package

At 4,095 metres, Mount Kinabalu in Sabah is the highest mountain in the countries neighbouring Singapore. The journey to Kinabalu Park ( 1,560-m ) is a road journey of 2 hours along a good winding mountain road 90 km from Kota Kinabalu.

Each year tens of thousands of visitors make the climb along the scenic Kinabalu Mountain Trail. Although the trip requires no special abilities and anyone in good health and vigor can reach the summit, it is an intense trek that involves a straight-up ascent from an altitude of about 1900m to 4100m within a 24-hour period with little recovery time. There are very few mountains in the world that are as tall as Mount Kinabalu and yet so climber friendly and natural & can be climbed in 2 days. This makes it a popular mountain - during holiday seasons there may be up to 200 people climbing the mountain per day!

Your safety is of great importance to us. For our climbs, you can expect handpicked mountain guides that ensure adequate supervision & safety. We probably offer the most comprehensive trip preparation program you can find in the market to ensure that our members are the best prepared trekking group on the mountain.

This premier package will not only allow you to attempt the summit but also to accord you style and comfort during your stay. With premier lodges and private rooms, you can enjoy the park in greater comfort and privacy.
