Itinerary Subject to changes

Day 1 (15 June) - KOTA KINABALU / KINABALU PARK
Upon arrival at KKIA, will transfer to Kinabalu Park. The journey will take approximately 2 hours and drive through the scenic countryside and 
witness the breathtaking view of Mountain Range. Stop at Nabalu, a typical roadside market along the way. Local handicraft and fruits can be 
found at here. Continue heading to Kinabalu Park which is, situated 1585 metres above sea level at the foot of the magnificent Mount Kinabalu, within the World
Heritage site.
Overnight - hostel.

Day 2 (16 June) - (Breakfast, Packed Lunch, Dinner)
KINBALU PARK / LABAN RATA
After having your breakfast at resort. Gather at Sabah Parks Registration Office for climbing registration, proceed to the starting point of your
mountain scaling trip. One extraordinary sight is that you will notice the change of vegetation from Oak and Chestnut to mossy forest and 
eventually to alpine vegetation when you finally reach your overnight based at 3,272 meters - Laban Rata area. Have the rest of the day free to relax, 
rest up and get ready for the big climb tomorrow early morning.
Overnight huts dorm (Non heated)

Day 3 (17 June) (Breakfast, Lunch)
SUMMIT / KINABALU PARK
The final ascent to the summit begins very early and takes about 2-3 hours as our aim is to be on the top for sunrise. It will be dark when you begin your walk (head torches with fresh batteries are strongly recommended), and coupled with the high altitude, it will be very cold and tiring (warm
clothing essential). However, if you succeed in climbing the summit at Low's peak (4,095.2m), a great sense of achievements will fill
you.
After savouring what is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, return to Laban Rata (in much faster time!) with the opportunity for a well-earned 
breakfast before continuing on down to park headquarters for your lunch.
After descend, transfer to Kinabalu town.
Overnight in City Park Lodge (Twin-share)
