BV-35: SABAH AGRICULTURE PARK

The mountain road leads through the Crocker Ranges. On the way there is a beautiful view of mountains and forests. The highest point is 1,500 meters above sea level, so the road is often shrouded in clouds and fog. The fresh mountain air is very refreshing.

Tenom Park is located 160 km from the capital, Kota Kinabalu, which is about a 3-hour drive. It is the last stop of the Borneo Railway. The park is located near the town of Tenom, the unofficial capital of the Murut indigenous people, who make up more than 60% of the area. A must-see is the Tenom market, which sells local coffee, tobacco, honey and a variety of exotic vegetables and fruits. The prices in the market will pleasantly surprise you.
