Itinerary description
This was the training trip for the Kinabalu Climbathon 2011. It was a day trip. National Park opens gate for the climbers at 7:30am and one has to reach the Low's peak 4095.5m ASL before 1pm. You'll need mountain guide (RM80 per day) for the climb. This is the most beautiful mountain in Malaysia and you must not miss it. Do it as Once in a Life time Climb at least.
Where to stay: Accommodation inside the park is really expensive and budgets motel near the park are quite cheap, clean and nice. Homestay packages are available but make sure you have proper transportation to/from the park for you hiking trips!
If you are going for the Day Trip, pray hard for the beautiful sunshine weather as Park Rangers might stop you if it rains before you reach the summit!

This is day trip (not the usual overnight @ Laban Rata - 2D1N fun trip): Sabah Park will issue Only 4 Day Passes per day! Climb start at 7:30am and one must reach the Laban Rata before 11am and Low's Peak before 1pm! You will be asked to turn back if you fail to meet the time limit! Good Luck
