Know your trip plan

Arrive in Lahad Datu and receive a welcome briefing before embarking on a scenic drive into Borneo's ancient rainforest.

Reach the Borneo Rainforest Lodge by midday and take time to settle in before heading out on your first trek. Explore lush forest trails, admire towering trees, and walk the iconic canopy walkway for sweeping views of the jungle.

In the evening, relax at the lodge or join an optional night drive safari to spot nocturnal wildlife, including elusive forest creatures under the cover of darkness.

Start your day with a guided morning trek to the mystical Coffin Cliff, an ancient Kadazandusun burial site.

On the way, take in panoramic views from the View Point and unwind in the natural Jacuzzi Pool, a spring nestled deep in the rainforest.

After lunch, choose between two adventures:

Explore different jungle trails with chances to spot exotic flora and fauna
Enjoy a relaxing tubing session down the Danum River, surrounded by pristine wilderness

As night falls, optional forest walks may reveal glowing fungi, tree frogs, and other fascinating nocturnal creatures.

Greet the day with the peaceful sounds of the jungle and the soft glow of sunrise.

Spend your final morning on a short nature walk, enjoying quiet moments by the river or simply soaking in the rainforest’s natural beauty.

After lunch, depart the lodge and journey back to Lahad Datu with lasting memories of your time in the wild.
