MULU NATIONAL PARK

Miri is a town rich in its own history of oil and natural wonders. Neighboring the country of Brunei, Miri is fast developing into a resort based city. Preserved deep in the heart of the jungle surrounding the town of Miri the Mulu National Park is one of Nature's most spectacular achievements and the 'jewel in the crown' of Sarawak's expanding network of national parks. It is the largest national park, covering 544 sq. km of primary rainforest, naturally abundant with fast flowing rivers and clear jungle streams. Mulu is dominated by three mountains - Gunung Mulu (2,376 m), Gunung Api (1,750 m) and Gunung Benarat (1,585 m). Yet many of Mulu's greatest attractions lie deep below the surface. Hidden underneath the forested slopes of these mountains is one of the largest limestone cave systems in the world.

This system, a breath-taking natural wonder, contains a number of record breaking caves. With the world's largest cave passage (Deer Cave), the world's largest natural chamber (Sarawak Chamber), the longest cave in Southeast Asia (Clearwater Cave), it is not surprising that Mulu is now world-famous. Over 200 km of cave passages have been surveyed but this is thought to represent just 30-40% of the actual total.

Although Mulu is synonymous with caves, the 'Mulu experience' is not limited to underground attractions; above ground there is plenty to see and do. The park is covered in rich primary rainforest and offers a whole range of nature-based activities. There are some excellent jungle treks and mountain hikes. The newest attraction being a 480 meter (1,584 feet) walkway through the tree canopy, as part of Borneo's eco-tourism promotion. Suspended 20 meters (66 feet) above the forest floor, you will have a closer insight into the world of birds, insects and their natural habitat. With it's rich bio-diversity, and world-famous caves, Mulu offers the adventurous traveller an exhilarating cave and rainforest experience, possibly unmatched anywhere else on Earth.
