oh yes count me in too...i want join climbing trip.

Hi. Im interested for climbing. What the requirement? Equipment?

Name: Sim
Summit conquered: Any
Next target: Any that can give challenges
Frequent workout place: KL, PJ

Please pm me if any event is up.

Is this thread still active? i would like to ask the opinion of the fellow hikers here. How many routes are there for Bukit Tabur Extreme? as my first attempt had failed since my team of 4, bumped into "the farmer place" as how people described it,n has a lot of dogs kept inside the fenced area. We supposed to pass through that field but there were unexpectedly 5~6 guard dogs slowly came to us. So we just discontinue our journey n go for Tabur East instead. We were truly disappointed. So is there any other alternative route?

Anyone up for the challenge of Climbathon @ Mount Kinabalu this year?

Sorry for the late reply as I have been MIA for almost 1.5 years here. The trail head is clearly visible from the road but once you reach to the flat surface you will need to keep right and navigate a steep sloop. I believe my markers are still there if not mistaken. Good luck.

Most people do Gunung Tebu for 2 days 1 night but can be done within a day pack. Staying a night up there is quite cooling which will make you awake most of the time. Most people will choose to camp at two location which is not far than one another. Either camp near the written rock where you can see the view of South China Sea or a 5 minutes down where the bonsai gardens are. Also the entry point for water point.

For Tabur Extreme there are 3 routes. The easiest route will be from the farmer place which I hope is the same as you describe here. But there is are 2 alternate longer routes which one is a bypass from Tabur East (you could got lost here if you are afraid), and the other start from Kemensah.

hehee...so long ago..but not managed to go due to organizer cancelled the trip.

It is quite easy to hike. Proper trail although some will tend to lost their way if not familiar with hiking. Do take note that Tebu will be close during the monsoon season as flash flood occurred very frequently here. Local refer them as kepala air. You have to call to ask before making your way there
