Kinabalu Park, Protected mountain park in Sabah, Malaysia
The 754-square-kilometer Kinabalu Park contains Mount Kinabalu, reaching an elevation of 4,095 meters as the highest peak between the Himalayas and New Guinea.
The Royal Society Kinabalu Scientific expedition from 1962 to 1964, directed by Professor Corner, provided essential documentation leading to the park's establishment in 1964.
The park received UNESCO World Heritage Site status in December 2000, marking Malaysia's first natural site recognized for its exceptional biological diversity.
The Park Headquarters, situated 92 kilometers from Kota Kinabalu at 1,520 meters elevation, provides accommodation options from basic hostels to full-service chalets.
The park contains 4,500 species of flora and fauna, including 326 bird species and 100 mammal species, with many plants connecting to Himalayan, Chinese, and Australian regions.
