Visiting
Mulu World Heritage Area is a journey into the interior of Borneo.
To get from the coastal city of Miri you must fly over impenetrable
jungle or travel all day up the Baram, Tutoh and Melinau rivers
to the mountains on the far horizon.
Trips overland to a nearby longhouse, then a 2
hour boat ride to the Park, are possible but very difficult. The
only access is via logging roads which can be locked, washed out
and in very poor condition.
There are no buses, no highways and certainly
no taxis to Mulu. So it's the easy way by air or the scenic and
slow, winding cruise by river.
You can also arrive from the north flying in from
Kota Kinabalu in Sabah or hiking down the Head Hunter's Trail
from Limbang.
Which ever adventure you choose to get to Mulu
it is just an introduction to the jungle experience waiting for
you.
