INTRODUCTION

Maliau Basin Conservation Area, 58,840 ha, also known as Sabah’s Lost World is a huge bowl of pristine forests described as one of the few remaining relatively untouched wilderness areas in the world.

Bounded by a formidable escarpment reaching over 1,675m above sea level, the almost circular Basin, one of Malaysia’s finest remaining wilderness areas, encompasses 390 km² of pristine forest, a virtually self-contained ecosystem, never permanently inhabited and with large areas still remaining to be explored and documented.

The whole Basin is a single huge water catchment, drained by only one river, the Maliau River, which flows out through a gorge in the southeast of the Basin, joining the Kuamut River and eventually the Kinabatangan, Sabah’s largest and most important river.

Recognizing the uniqueness of the area, in 1981 Yayasan Sabah voluntarily designated Maliau Basin as a Conservation Area, for the purposes of research, education and training, along with Danum Valley Conservation Area further to the east.

In 1997, Maliau Basin Conservation Area was upgraded by the Sabah state government to a Class 1 Protection Forest Reserve, providing legal status as a protected area, and extended to its present size of 588.4 km² by incorporating forested land to the east and north of the Basin. Buffer zones surrounding the whole Conservation Area also add to its protection.

The Sabah State Government has approved the World Heritage Site (WHS) nomination of Maliau Basin together with Danum Valley and Imbak Canyon as a single heritage site which will be called DaMaI, an abbreviation of Danum Valley, Maliau Basin and Imbak Canyon.

MALIAU BASIN – Borneo’s lost world!

Maliau Basin has earned the nickname “Sabah’s lost world” for good reason. The first expeditions into this remote basin occurred as recently as 1988 and it remains very much “off the beaten path” to this day. Visitors willing to take up the challenge of hiking to it’s numerous stunning waterfalls are rewarded with a rich and diverse habitat of vine-clad old-growth forest as well as numerous wildlife spotting opportunities. It’s worth noting that the forest and jungle in Maliau Basin are so dense that larger wildlife will be harder to spot than in areas such as the Kinabatangan River but there will still be plenty of unique flora & fauna on display! Much of the area is still unexplored and whilst over 2000 species of plants and animals have been discovered, many more remain a secret.


Maliau Basin can be reached from either Kota Kinabalu or from Tawau, our standard itineraries are inclusive of transport from / to Kota Kinabalu but alternative arrangements can be made on request (extra costs may apply). The journey into the basin and to the field centre where you will spend the first night is by 4X4 and you will also get a chance to join a night 4X4 safari on your first evening. Subsequent days you will be trekking 5 to 8 hours per day between camps deep in the heart of the basin with your forest ranger and nature guide. Visitors must be physically fit and must also have travel insurance covering helicopter evacuation. Part of the beauty of Maliau Basin is that there are no high end resorts here, basic accommodation & meals are provided at jungle camps throughout the trek immersing you further into the green heart of the basin. This truly is a stunning and unique trip for the adventurous traveller – a not to be missed opportunity of a lifetime to visit somewhere truly off the grid!

PASS OF RIGHTS IF FLIGHT DELAY.

Should you ever feel if flight delay is it? There are some cases that happen when airlines cancel your flight without explanation.

For your information, the Malaysian Aviation Commission has issued Malaysia’s Flight Consumer Protection Code 2016 on June 30, 2016 with the aim of protecting the rights of users of aviation services in Malaysia.

In this Protection Code, among the key points that are clarified and what we need to know is:

1. If passengers are not allowed to board the aircraft.

In this case passengers should be offered free of charge ie food, limited telephone calls and access to the internet. Passengers should also be offered a stay at the hotel when accommodation for one night or more is necessary. In addition, transportation from the airport to the hotel should also be provided.

2. For flight delay for two hours or more.

Passengers should be offered free of charge, food, drinks, limited telephone calls and access to the internet according to reasonable conditions with waiting time.

3. For flight delay for five hours or more.

Passengers are to be offered free of charge at the hotel when accommodation for one night or more is necessary. In addition, transportation from the airport to the hotel should also be provided.

4. If flight is canceled.

Passengers should be offered a choice between payment of compensation within thirty days, of the full cost of the ticket at the purchase price including tax and fees OR offered a change of route, in comparable transport conditions.
