A wet and wild day
out for the energetic! This morning
rafting is a fun-filled ride down the picturesque Kiulu River
through jungle-clad valleys and past villagers and farms with enough white
water to get you excited but not enough to scare you.
After the rafting you will enjoy a tasty barbeque lunch
and change into your riding clothes before a 15 minutes transfer to the start
of the mountain biking. After a short briefing and bike fitting, we will head
out for one of the most beautiful rides in rural Sabah. We cycle through
small riverside villages which are home to the Dusun tribal
people as well as jungle, plantations and the Dusun people
farms. The hills are thankfully few, far apart and short on the main route but
if you are feeling like stretching your legs a little our guides can take you
off to explore some more adventurous trails with single track and technical
descents.
A support vehicle is nearby at all times should a
problem occur.
