Kinabalu Mount
Kinabalu Mountain Lodge ( formerly known as Tinompok Resort ) managed by Kinabalu backpackers crew June of 2010. Kinabalu Mountain Lodge is just located 2KM before Kinabalu National Park. A good place for scenery, moths, insects and bird watching.
The name "Kinabalu" originated from the local dusun word "Aki Nabalu", means "The revered place of the dead." In the past, the locals believe that Mount Kinabalu was the place where the spirits of the dead rested, so they treated the mountain as a sacred place. According to the documentation, Sir Hugh Low was the first person that reached the summit in 1851. That's why the highest peak, Low's Peak, was named after him. The plant is getting less as you move higher. The temperature will be near to freezing point on top, so you better have something to keep your fingers and ears warm. No, it will not snow. But get your raincoat ready. You will need it badly if it rains.
