Welcome to Nature Lodge Kinabatangan
Located along the Sungai Kinabatangan, our lodge is the
only trace of civilisation within the proximity. Be prepared to get
all misty eyed over the surreal lush greenery, intended to be left
untouched for your viewing pleasure. It is, of course, free to

village known as Kampung Bilit ~ where the people’s lives are simple
and absolutely remote from the outside world.

You could bump into primates like the long-tailed and pig-tailed macaques,
the amazing sounding gibbons, elusive tarsier and the great Orang Utans. You will
also catch sight of Proboscis Monkeys, a primate that is found only in Borneo.

Birds are all over the place. All 8 species of Hornbills are regular patrons of
the riverbank greenery. Occasionally, rhinoceros hornbills will drop by to join
the pack; basking below are crocodiles lazing the day away, especially during the
dry season. At night, you will spot the cute nocturnal wide-eyed slow lorris.

The rainy season that strikes during November to March causes flood around the
Kinabatangan river. As our lodge is strategically located on higher plains, the
flood does not affect us. So it is possible to stay in Nature Lodge Kinabatangan
all year round.

In fact, it is during the humid months that more animals are seen (and less
crocodiles are basking nearby). Not to mention, behind Nature Lodge Kinabatangan
is an oxbow lake where you can easily see the wonderful otters. Bird sighting is
amazing here. The oxbow lake is just a stone’s throw from the lodge, equivalent
to an hour’s walk.

Since Kinabatangan is a wildlife sanctuary, obviously it will not be like a
trip to the zoo. There is a slight possibility that some animals will shy away
from you but we can guarantee that you will be able to spot at least 20 different
types of wildlife.
Borneo's Hornbill
At the end of the day, these entire animals sighting depends on the skills of
the person showing you around. At Nature Lodge Kinabatangan, our trekkers will make
sure that you get to see all these exquisite creatures to maximize your adventurous
trip to Sungai Kinabatangan.
