For those who
have a very limited
time to spend on climbing Mount Kinabalu
for 3D2N, you can actually cut
down your trip to 2D1N. You need to make some minor adjustment of your
travel itinerary as you will not stay in Kinabalu Park HQ for the first
night. The only one
night stay for the climb to Mount Kinabalu is your place to stay in
Laban Rata.
Before we
proceed to the adjustment, there are some things that you have to
remember.
The distance from Kota
Kinabalu to
Kinabalu Park HQ is about 90 kilometers and Kundasang to Kinabalu Park
HQ is about 7 kilometers.
You need to be in
Kinabalu Park HQ on the
day you are climbing before 9.00 am. Timpohon Gate
(where you will start your climb) will be closed at 10.00 am. No other
climbers are allowed to climb after that time from Timpohon
Gate by the Sabah Parks.
Why I need to
tell you this? Because
it is important for you to plan your first night
stay to substitute your accommodation in Kinabalu Park HQ.
So, there are 2 ways
you can choose for your first night stay.
1.
Spend the night in one of the hotels or
hostels in Kota Kinabalu city
Wake up early and
catch a bus or taxi to
Kinabalu Park at the least 7.30 am, and hopefuly you will arrive in
Kinabalu Park HQ just before the gate is closed. Choose from one of the
travel package below. There are some
travel operators who start their journey from Kota Kinabalu at 6.30 am.
Travel operators
in the
table below provides Mount Kinabalu climbing
package which includes the transport from Kota Kinabalu to Kinabalu
Park HQ. They will usually pick you up from any hotel/hostel around
Kota Kinabalu early morning (as early as 6.30 am) and drive you
straight to Kinabalu Park HQ for the climb. They have make your life
easier by booking your stay in Laban Rata for your second night
accommodation.

The above data is correct on the date this table was produce, 1 June
2006. If you
are
one of the above named operator, and would like to update your tour
package, please drop me an email.
Please
note:
The above
tour is subject to availability of
climbing permits, which are limited as not to create too much negative
impact on the unique nature of Malaysia's first World Heritage Site;
Since
climbing Mount Kinabalu is just about the
most popular tour package in Sabah, we highly recommend that you make
your availability enquiry at
least
three months in
advance.
Allow 24 -
48 hours before your availability
inquiry is confirmed. If alternate dates or accommodation are given it
is because there is no other choice.
Availability
confirmations for climbing Mount
Kinabalu are strictly valid for 24 hours only, after which the
provisional booking with Sabah Parks is automatically released.
We
are not
responsible for any cancellation or difficulties during you trip with
the above travel operator. We only provide the information.
2.
Spend the night in one of the B&B, chalet, hostel or hotel in
Kundasang town
Kundasang is situated about 7
kilometers from Kinabalu
Park HQ, and along the way, there are many places for you to choose for
the stay (most of them provides mountain lodges and hostel-like
accommodations). It will only take few minutes for you to get to
Kinabalu Park HQ for your climb. The best time to get to Kinabalu Park
HQ is before
8.00 am.
To make your life easier, I
manage to find out the easiest way to book
for a place in Kundasang. You can contact one of these four resort
operator's website and maybe book yourself an accommodation. All the
accommodations provider below situated less than 7 km form
Kinabalu Park HQ. In the morning of your climb, there are many
buses feeding Kinabalu Park HQ that you can catch from
Kundasang town.
After booking the place to
stay in Kundasang, do
not forget to book
your place to stay during the climb at Laban Rata from Sutera Sanctuary
Lodges.
There are
other
accommodations around Kundasang, but they do not have a good website to
present their services. If you choose to stay in one of the places in
Kundasang, (that means you DIY-ing your frist night trip to the summit)
you do not
have to follow any of the travel operator above.
