DAY 1
The adventure will normally begin with a pick-up around 6:30 am in Kota Kinabalu (depending on accommodation and other guests) and proceed to Kinabalu Park traversing the Crocker Range. Later pickups, 12noon onward, can be arranged without surcharge for groups of 2pax or more (Single travellers will incur a RM250 surcharge for an unscheduled transfer). Upon arrival at Kinabalu Park (1,520m), we will register you for the climb the following day; you are then free to spend the day hiking the various trails of the beautiful Kinabalu park, and enjoy lunch based on your own arrangement. At your own pace, enjoy dinner at Balsam Café, be sure get an early night’s sleep for your climb the following day. Meals: Dinner

DAY 2
Wake-up for a buffet breakfast at Balsam Café, meet your guide and our driver around 8:30am, collect your packed lunch for the day and wait for your transfer to Timpohon Gate (1,829m). From here you will begin your climb to Laban Rata (3,353 m), your accommodation for the evening. Along the route to your accommodation you will pass through four different elevation zones with notable vegetation and mammals. Keep your eye out for the famous pitcher-plants plants or the cheeky Kinabalu Mountain shrews, endemic to Mount Kinabalu. The average time to get to Laban Rata (Panar Laban) will take about 5 hours, this may vary depending on stops and your fitness level.
