Malaysian Adventure
Looking for an adventure in a different part of the world is not always easy. Having Michael as our guide gave us the opportunity not only to do White Water Rafting, Canyoning & Cave Exploration, but we also got a real sense of Malaysia as a culture.

Poring is a Kadazandusun word for the bamboo species growing in the area. Situated 40km (25 miles) slightly north east of the Kinabalu Park HQ, Poring is in the lowlands, a complete contrast to the HQ.

The spring is known for its therapeutic and soothing baths that contains sulphuric minerals which can take away sores and aches of muscles. The bath is favoured by those who have just returned from the arduous climb of Mount Kinabalu. Wherelse the natives claimed that it has curative powers and very popular among the locals.

Poring Hot Springs offer plenty of hidden treasures in the area and its surrounding.

Butterfly farm Here you will find several species of colourful and striking butterflies, Borneo's first butterflies' farm features a garden, nursery and hatchery for the purpose of research, education and the preservation of endangered species.

Poring Orchid Conservation Center - With 1,200 species of orchids found with Kinabalu Park, the center has the largest living collection of the Sabah Orchid and rare endemic wild orchids.

Kipungit Waterfall - Kipungit Waterfall is a mere half-hour trek from the Poring Hotspring area. Sighboards and a well-marked path will guild you through the shady forest and as you trudge up and down rocky paths and cliffs, the sound of a running waterfall will inevitably lead you to your destination. The waterfall is relatively smaller than the Laganan Waterfall, which is an hour and a half away by foot from Poring Hotspring. The cool and refreshing water of the Kipungit waterfall will prove to be too inviting to resist!

With its shady canopy and beautiful rocks, the area is private, peaceful and a great place to spend a lazy afternoon with family and friends.

Tropical Garden - Mousedeers and deers relax under the gaze of colourful birds in the aviary.

Poring Canopy Walkway - A must-visit! Stroll amidst the canopy of the Menggaris tree - the King of the Forest. The Walkway is 157.8m long and 41m high!
