IF mountains were women, Sabah’s Mount Kinabalu would be the undisputed grande dame of Malaysia’s peaks. No matter how many times you have scaled Kinabalu, you will still be awed by the majesty of its granite massif.
At 4,095m and towering over other all peaks in Malaysia, Kinabalu is relatively easy to climb for fit but inexperienced trekkers. With 14 notable peaks on the Eastern and Western plateaus, the jaw-dropping view from the top is worth the huffing and puffing. Check out the world’s highest via-ferrata too whilst you are up there.
