Deer & Lang caves
One of the world’s largest cave passages, home to more than 3 million Wrinkle Lipped bats. A large number of swiftlets also roost in Deer Cave where the high cave ceilings (more than 100m in some places) provide a safe haven against predators.
Enjoy the sheer size of this limestone passage, an ancient riverbed, and see the force of water carving the scalloped walls.
Once you reach the green oasis of Garden of Eden you have walked 800m inside Deer Cave. Enjoy the unique shower head formations of Adam and Eve’s showers spouting columns of water 30m to the riverbed below.
Pinnacles
The Pinnacle climb is a high risk and extreme activity therefore the Park offers it only as a 3 days 2 nights trip.
Located beside a clear stream Camp 5 is an ideal place to swim and relax after your walk. The following morning the hike begins around 06:30. The trail to the top is only 2.4 km long but rises 1200 metres to the viewpoint. The last section of the trail is near vertical with rope sections and ladders to climb. For many, the descent is more difficult and can take 5 hours or more.
The climb is well worthwhile though as it culminates in spectacular views of the pinnacle formations, some of which tower up to 50 metres high. The trail itself, which climbs steeply from the Melinau Gorge passes through some intriguing limestone forest and as you reach the higher altitudes includes some spectacular pitcher plants (Nepenthes sp.), sightings of rare orchids and Mountain Shrews.
The Pinnacle trail is regarded as an extreme climb (not a trek) on a natural route. Man-made assistance comes in the form of vertical steel ladders bolted into the rock faces and ropes. If you suffer from vertigo or fear of heights this is not for you. The visitors that were injured on this trail were people that underestimated the trail and their own fitness levels. These visitors were often not well equipped and did not adhere to the advice of their guides. Rescues are extreme (and costly) and even more so in the dark.
Adventure caving
Caving at Mulu often involves wading across rivers or streams, squeezing between rocks and crevices, swimming through underground rivers, and of course, getting covered in dirt.
Caves have been rated as beginners, intermediate and advanced.
