Sabah is a state of hundred mountains, and the top five highest mountains of Malaysia are located in Sabah, i.e. (1st) Mount Kinabalu, (2nd) Mount Trus Madi, (3rd) Mount Sinsing, (4th) Mount Tambuyukon, (5th) Mount Kaingaran<\/strong>. Climbers and hikers will be spoiled with choices, as every hills and mountains here have different characteristics in terms of geology, landscape and biodiversity. For example, today you can climb a mountain with dense rainforest cover, then tomorrow challenge a limestone pinnacle with bald rockface. The following is a list of 10 most unique hills and mountains in Sabah for a diverse climbing experience. Please note gunung<\/em> and bukit<\/em> mean mountain and hill in Malay language respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Mount Kinabalu<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Height:<\/strong> 4,095 Metres (13,435 ft)   Location:<\/strong> Kinabalu Park (GPS: 6.075260, 116.558813<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the first UNESCO World Heritage Site and the highest mountain of Malaysia, Mount Kinabalu is the No.1 tourist destination of Sabah. Mount Kinabalu is 700 million years old, and a snow-capped mountain during ice age back in 30,000 years ago. Today climbers still can see the ancient traces and jagged peaks carved by glacier near the summit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Mount<\/a>
Mount Kinabalu is so prominent that you can see her in most parts of Sabah (even Sandakan in East Coast)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

But what truly makes Mount Kinabalu special is its cloud forest which is high in plant endemism. On the way up, you would see bright-colored pitcher plant and rare orchid next to the trail. The majestic Mount Kinabalu is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places in Malaysia<\/strong>. The climb is about 8.7 Kilometres in distance and usually take 2 days 1 night. More Info…<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Ruhiang Hill (Bukit Perahu)<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Height:<\/strong> 300 Metres (984 ft)   Location:<\/strong> Tamparuli (GPS: 6.135493, 116.278955<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The locals say there are two ships stranded on the cone-shaped Ruhiang Hill. Actually they are two huge boulders that look like ships. The climb takes less than an hour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"View<\/a>
For this view, you need to reach the top of Bukit Perahu before 8am. Mount Kinabalu would be covered in mist after 9pm<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Early birds who reach the peak in early morning would be rewarded by the breathtaking view of Mount Kinabalu on a sea of cloud. I can’t help to imagine that I can get on a big ship to sail to Mount Kinabalu on the cloud. After the climb, the bonus is to eat Tamparuli Fried Noodle<\/a> in Tamparuli town. More Info…<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Ruhiang<\/a>
You would find many locals climbing Ruhiang Hill (Bukit Perahu) during weekends. See the ship-like boulder?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

3. Bukit Kokol (Kokol Hill)<\/a> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Height:<\/strong> 800 Metres (2,625 ft)   Location:<\/strong> Menggatal (GPS: 6.007611, 116.207367<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two cool things draw many visitors to unwind on Kokol Hill. It is the nearest spot to escape the heat of Kota Kinabalu city<\/strong>, and its magnificent sunset view. You can just drive up there without climbing at all. If life is tough, have a cup of hot coffee in cooling breeze of Kokol Hill and enjoy the scenic view of Kota Kinabalu city and islands far away. To really free your mind, try paragliding<\/a> on Kokol Hill. More Info…<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Kokol<\/a>
The nice view, cooling temperature and paragliding are the highlight of Kokol Hill (Bukit Hill)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

4. Bukit Bongol<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Height:<\/strong> 500 Metres (1,730 ft)   Location:<\/strong> Kota Belud (GPS: 6.310287, 116.408424<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Want a fun hike with a group of friends? I heard a lot of praises about Bukit Bongol. The slopes are mostly gentle and the trail is less challenging. The whole hill is carpeted by grass<\/strong>, which is green in wet months and yellowish during drought, a spectacular scenery you all won’t forget. Climb to the high point before 9am and you would be lucky to see Mount Kinabalu, a perfect backdrop for your Instagram shots. More Info…<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Batu Punggul<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Height:<\/strong> 244 Metres (800 ft)   Location:<\/strong> Nabawan (GPS: 4.607299, 116.587644<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located in interior, where Murut headhunters roamed in the past, Batu Punggul is the most mysterious hill of Sabah<\/strong>. Legend says this limestone pinnacle is a longhouse being turned into rock by angry God because the villagers made fun of the animals. At the foothill there is a cave where you can find the “fossilized furniture” such as jar and table. Climbing this vertical 800-feet limestone pinnacle will peak your adrenaline rush, and nobody will question your bravery if you can conquer Batu Punggul. More Info…<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Mount Silam<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Height:<\/strong> 884 Metres (2,900 ft)   Location:<\/strong> Lahad Datu (GPS: 4.956901, 118.165534<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don’t need to get on a plane to have a bird-eye view of this beautiful land. Just visit the tower of heaven on Mount Silam, where you can see the picturesque scenery of Darvel Bay. The air up there is refreshing and the peak is covered in fog sometimes. Beside the tower is a nature trail that leads you to an alien world filled with mossy forest, forest crabs, rare orchid, pitcher plant, etc. More Info…<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Mount Nombuyukong<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Height:<\/strong> 1,603.57 Metres (5,261 ft)   Location:<\/strong> Kota Marudu (GPS: 6.275650, 116.687114<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mount Nombuyukong is another mountain in north of Kinabalu Park. Its pointy peak kind of triggering my insect-like instinct that motivates me to crawl to its tip. The climb is quite challenging but takes only half a day. This is a forested mountain for nature lovers who appreciate the fauna and flora in tropical rainforest of Borneo. You won’t be disappointed when you see so many interesting fungus, flowers, trees, and birds along the way. More Info…<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Bukit Lugas<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Height:<\/strong> 600 Metres (1,965 feet) above sea level   Location:<\/strong> Tambunan (GPS: 5.506507, 116.277218<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a great example to inspire a person that he doesn’t need to be tall to be attractive, if he has awesome characteristics. Bukit Lugas is just a small hill, but it has an impressive ridge that looks like dragon spine. Though the narrow path is a nightmare for people with acrophobia, they still want to try it. Anyway, it is safer than it seems. This hidden dragon is exposed when its pictures went viral a few years ago. More Info…<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Bukit Tengkorak (Skull Hill)<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Height:<\/strong> 183 Metres (597 ft)   Location:<\/strong> Semporna (GPS: 4.438507, 118.619756<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bukit Tengkorak is part of an ancient volcanic rim (about 2 KM in diameter) and the largest pottery making site in Southeast Asia during the Neolithic period (about 3,000 years ago). It is estimated that more than 6 million prehistoric potsherds found on this hill, and you would see hundred of pottery potsherds on the way up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Bukit

On top of this hill, you can have a panoramic view of Semporna town and islands. You can go further behind to explore the grassy knolls dotted with black volcanic rocks, to bag some amazing profile photos. More Info…<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Maragang Hill<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Height:<\/strong> 2,232 Metres (7,323 ft)   Location:<\/strong> Mesilau (GPS: 6.039138, 116.585750<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The distance between the peaks of Mount Kinabalu and Maragang Hill is only 5 Kilometres! This makes Maragang Hill the best viewpoint for the highest mountain of Malaysia.<\/strong> The viewing platform on the peak allows you to capture Mount Kinabalu, lush montane forest and blue sky in one frame. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Looking<\/a>

The 4-Kilometre climb is fairly easy and takes only an hour. A camping site is available nearby for those who want to stay back for stargazing. More Info…<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The list doesn’t end here. The following is a list of over 140 hills \/ mountains grouped by city and towns. Please note that not all of them are tourist-ready. Some destinations would require you to hire a guide or apply an entry permit. I try to link them to some useful websites (informative articles are so hard to come by nowadays).
