On the Kinabatangan river we stay at the Borneo Nature Lodge (above image) which is nestled along the riverbank of the longest and biggest river in Sabah. The Lower Kinabatangan is one of Sabah's most splendid natural treasures and the richest concentration of wildlife in South East Asia. We awake to the calls of birds, insects and animals as the pre-dawn chorus begins, then after a good breakfast enjoy a jungle walk along the ridge with stunning views over the Kinabatangan River. There are also boat safaris to see wild orangutan, pygmy elephant, crocodiles, proboscis monkey, clouded leopard and many other animals and birds including the hornbill.
