Higher than the Pyrenees Mtns and highest Via Ferrata in the world. Beautiful Sabah !
Nice hiking and wonderful food specially the white beans
Congrats guys 👍👏👏👏
Nice vlog..👍👏👏👏❤
Stunning view
Mesmerisingly beautiful! And you guys came all the way from the UK and made it all the way up there, that is just epic, congratulations! 👏👏👏 Glad you two enjoyed your trip to sabah. Stay safe 👍
Yt somehow put this video up again in their recommended section, so I decided to click on it and watch a 2nd time, although not really from the beginning. What strikes me most this time is when the 2 of you had a little cash issue and discussing it inside the cafeteria, and instead of getting stressed about it, actually I still don't understand what was the mistake you guys did that led to the situation, but you two were laughing it off, not going after each other's throat blaming one another for the predicament! That is sooo warm to watch 🥰 Can't help commenting again haha. Hope you continue to be the jovial lots that you two are, truly watch out and care for one another 👍 Stay safe and have pleasant fun wherever you guys are!
I recommend you to go to danum valley it a 150 million years old rainforest full of nature and orangutan
This video has inspired me to go here thanks
love your guys.. I've been up there 1 week ago.
Im going in December any tips?
You are lucky. No rain.
Well done & Bravo to both of you 👍💪🍻 nice video
Selamat datang di Sabah🥰❤️
Wow🥰
Good job
Hai.. I'm from Sabah. Super beautiful view. I climbed here before the earthquake. Unfortunately, I didn't take pictures or videos at that time. I couldn't afford a camera at that time. Until now, I haven't climbed Mount Kinabalu yet. Congratulations to you for conquering Mount Kinabalu. Your video is very beautiful.
Congrats
Some facts about Mount Kinabalu,, it's the world's tallest granite mountain on island, the tallest summit is actually the Victoria Peak (estimated height of 4,1++m) instead of it's famous peak to the public, the Low's Peak
hi, how much did you pay all package (2d1n)?
Why is not 4101m height?
I will climb it one day
What company did you the tour with?
It is the highest peak in south east asia.
This is a common misconception. Mount Kinabalu is #29 highest peak in Southeast Asia
No. It's khakabo razi in Myanmar.
lol No
Even cartenz pyramid in Papua higher than this
@@withyou5961 Papua is South Pacific not south East Asia. Know your geography before debating with me. Philippine and indonesia are archipelago not mainland Asia or south East Asia. It is the highest between Himalaya to Papua. I never say highest in the world.
What you ben to rinjani?
Congratulations.. I've climbed more than 20x .. still feeling excited everytime I reached the peak. Try via ferrata.. more adventurous
Why so many times 😂
We did this peak in early October. It’s way harder than what it seems as while it’s stepped, the steps are bigger than expected so having to drive your whole weight up on each leg kills
100% those steps were so steep! I found coming down so much more challenging than I expected
Hey cool vlog - wondering which guide/company you used for the hike? Thanks!
We booked the hike through our hostel in KK, Vibrant Hostel
Never been to Malaysia before

Great video. How difficult for summit attack and how cold was there? Thanks
From Laban Rata (the place where the restaurant and the hostels are, at 3200m) to the summit (4096m) is not really that tough in terms of vertical climb, it's tough in terms of altitude. It starts with a series of stairs climbing, then traversing a cliff face (it used to be bare traversing which was a little dangerous, but nowadays they put in wooden stairs so it's ok). After that you'll reach a plateau which is not very steep, until you reach the bottom of the summit, follow by some rock scrambling to reach the top. Temperature wise it will be cold, with Laban Rata's temperature at about 0-10 degree C around 2pm, and coldest when you're at the bottom of the summit due to the wind if you reach there before sunrise. Once the sun comes out you'll be ok. The usual recommendation for clothing is a 3 layers top: 2 layers of polyester t-shirts (avoid cotton since it retains water), plus an outer wind breaker with hood, and gloves. If you're really afraid of cold then add one more polyester layer. Bring disposable raincoat (not to dispose there but because they are light weight) if you're climbing close to monsoon season.
Welcome to my humble land below the wind
Don't be humble about it, it is one of the most beautiful places on earth .
@@tomderbyshire5795 thank you sir
I am doing this hike in December, any recommendations for best hiking boots?
sorry can't be much help, we actually both did it in trainers since it was a spontaneous hike! But we were both fine in them
@kathleenwesley4269 Not sure how experienced you are, but trekking poles are highly recommended as they can save your knees during descent. Clothing wise, for the summit, 3 layers top: 2 layers of polyester t-shirts (avoid cotton since it retains water), plus an outer wind breaker with hood, and gloves. If you're really afraid of cold then add one more polyester layer. Temperature at Laban Rata (the place where the restaurant and hostel are) is usually around 0-10 degree C at 2am, and the coldest is at the summit base while waiting for sunrise. Once the sun is out you'll be fine. Bring disposable raincoat (not to dispose there but because they are light weight) since Dec is during monsoon season. Also bring enough water and some energy snacks (e.g. chocolates/nuts/raisins/etc.) to eat along the way. If you bring nuts there is a rest area along the way where you can feed the squirrels and have some fun with them. Sleep early in the evening around 8pm, as you'll need to wake up at 2am for the summit. Hope you'll have fun up there.
😍😍😍😍😍😍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌
That's the highest mountain of my country in Sabah, Philippines.
Delusional poor pinoys 🤢
@@MikhaelHld Squatter Malaysia
@@fighterpilot1017 and by squatting you mean historically, legally, & internationally recognised? Even by Sabahans themselves? Rather than you guys whose claim is literally just recognised by you, or the sultanate of sulu, who philippines don't even officially recognise themselves lmao. Keep being delusional
@@MikhaelHld Why is your country required to pay rent? It means your country is just squatting in Sabah.
@@fighterpilot1017 factually wrong
