MOUNT SINGAI JUNGLE TREKING

Trekking in the virgin rain forest of the mystical Mount Singai is an experience not to be missed, re-living the arduous mountain climbing following the route of Singai’s forefathers of the 18^th-19^th century. Mount Singai resembles a table top that can be seen from the city of Kuching. Rising 1843ft. (562m). above sea level, the plateau was inhabited by the BiSingai or the people of Singai for more than 500 years. The first Catholic Mission outside Kuching was built at Mount Singai in 1889. Now, it is the site of the Catholic Memorial Park and Pilgrimage Centre. Visitors come from all over the world to see and pray at the holy church.

The 5-hour trek starts at Kupuo Tubon winding up the mountain side till the peak. The trail passes through streams and creeks, gigantic fruit trees providing a natural green canopy of leaves. Savour the fresh air and have a dip in the unpolluted water of the numerous streams along the trail. Upon reaching the peak you will be entertained to a spectacular view of the surrounding villages and Kuching City. The chirping of insects and birds provide the natural symphony to encourage you on to the challenge.

The trek down the mountain can take the same route or a different route passing on the way, the Memorial Centre and the Water fall and exiting at Kupuo Giang Bowang.
