Camping is all about getting away from civilisation and into the wilds, and the higher reaches of Mount Kinabalu is a great wilderness. Up here you and your friends have an incredible expanse of terrain to explore and views that will stay with you forever. There are also a range of activities such as the Via Ferrata (meaning Iron Road in Italian), a series of fixings and bridges built into the rock face, or a variety of different routes to the summit that can be explored.
We can cater for anything from one night camping around the Sayat Sayat Slab, with porters to carry your equipment, to multi-day or longer itineraries incorporating sports climbing and rock climbing. After trekking from Timpohon Gate (1800m) to Pendant Hut (3270m) you will be met by the guide with whom you will be camping. Itineraries are formed according to what the customer would like to do. For logistical reasons we can only take camping groups of between 4 and 12, food is relatively basic but warm and keeps your energy levels high. The adventure of exploring the dramatic scenery of Mount Kinabalu’s upper reaches, away from the crowds that trance up and down the Tourist Trail, and the incredible views, will stay with you for years to come.
Our expert guides will provide you with all the technical safety equipment required, tents, food and even sleeping bags! All other climbing equipment used is from Europe and is CE certified.
