Highlights attractions in Mulu

Gunung Mulu National Park – The Gunung Mulu National Park is the highlight of Mulu and a must-visit place. Covering 528.64 square kilometres of the protected area, it is a Unesco World Heritage Site. Encompassing awe-inspiring equatorial rainforest as well as an impressive range of caves and karst formations, it is renowned for its dagger-sharp rock pinnacles, cliffs, and gorges. The park itself is always teeming with activities for its visitors from tours to the more challenging climb up the peak and the Pinnacles.
Deer and Lang Caves – A visit to the Deer Cave is usually combined with one to Lang's Cave, whose entrance is only a short distance away. Lang's Cave is the smallest of the show caves, but its impressive stalactite and stalagmite formations are worth seeing. The Deer Cave is one of the highlights of the national park, being the biggest show cave in Mulu as well as the largest cave passage in the world. Home to some three million bats which attached themselves to the cave's ceiling, it is indeed a spectacular sight to behold when the bats' exodus takes place daily from 4.30 pm to 6 pm. Visitors can only enter with a licensed park guide due to the nature of the caves.
Clearwater Cave and Wind Cave - The Clearwater Cave is Asia’s longest cave which measures 107 km and is a mere five-minute boat ride away from the Cave of the Winds. Named after the Clearwater River that surrounds and flows through it, going to the cave takes a bit of a hike but the stunning view inside is worth it with the enticing river that invites you to swim in it.
