Mulu Caves National Park is home to one of the longest
networks of caves in the world. Here lies the worlds largest underground
chamber, the Sarawak Chamber, capable of accommodating forty Boeing 747
airplanes.
In Mulu, you will also find one of the world biggest cave
passage, Deer Cave, which can fit five cathedrals the size of Saint Pauls in
London. Another key attraction is Clear Water Cave, the longest cave in
Southeast Asia. The massive caves here are home to millions of bats and cave
swiftlets that swarm out into the jungle in great clouds every evening at dusk!
The outdoorsy type will be pleasantly surprised by some of
the best examples of tropical limestone weathering in the world, including
enormous razor-sharp pinnacles, deep-cut canyons, appropriately named The
Pinnacles. There are tough but rewarding multi-day hikes available from the
resort. A guide and porter are recommended.
