Kinabatangan River Experiences
Kinabatangan River is one of the best places in Malaysia to spot wildlife in their natural habitat. If you're lucky you may spot the super cute long-nosed proboscis monkeys, elusive Orangutans and shy pygmy elephants. Here, you can go on a river safari, short jungle walks or just relax in nature.
The main highlight is river safaris - to spot proboscis monkeys, pygmy elephants & orangutans. You can also do night walks and support turtle conservation efforts.
Best wildlife spotting season is March-Oct! Dry weather means clearer views and animals come out for a drink.
Kinabatangan is Borneo's top spot for wildlife & a must for animal lovers! It suits all ages + fitness levels. Expect basic lodges here – don't come seeking luxury stays.
Wildlife sightings aren't guaranteed, so be patient & bring binoculars! Stay 2-3 days for a better chance to see elephants & orangutans. For a quieter stay, choose the Bilit side.
