MT KINABALU, BORNEO
Altitude 4095m
I summited on January 9 2008!
Total distance walked= 19km over 2 days with a vertical ascent of approx 2500m.
Mt Kinabalu, Sabah, Borneo is the highest mountain between the Himalayas and New Guinea. It is still growing by 5mm each year.
I climbed the mountain over 2 days with an overnight stop at Laban Rata. A fantastic walk which is unrelentingly steep in places.
There are 2 routes, and I chose the Mesilau trail on the way up, adding 2 km to the total but giving myself extra time to acclimatise. I descended along the Summit trail with its seemingly endless 2500 steps.
