The forested mountains feature spectacular razor-edged pinnacles and hide one of the largest limestone cave systems in the world.

It was an wonderful experience in Mulu national park, it is a heaven for the people who loves nature, it has tropical climate that means its can rain anytime, The best thing is that we get to see so many things at one place. The caves, clear water pool, canopy walk, river safari and etc. Park guide's were very elaborative and their knowledge is pretty good as most of them are localities. For a person like it was a perfect getaway as very less mobile connection works at mulu.

I depart as early as 5am from miri city centre to Pujut Bus station by grab (many grab are available even it is still early morning). At Pujut Bus station, bus any bus ticket heading to Bintulu (no reservation needed as there are many highway bus company, counter has open very early as well). Bus trip will takes about 90 minutes before stopping at Niah rest area (Persimpangan Niah). The journey was little bumpy, don't eat heavy breakfast before boarding! Once you reach Niah rest area, just ask the bus driver how to locate the local car driver to take you up to Niah cave, which is just about less than 10 min driving. There are many local drivers stand by already. One way cost RM30. I exchange my mobile number with the driver so that I can call him to take me down from Niah (he offer me discount as well as I book him 2 ways). For return trip, just hop in to any highway bus heading to Miri (again, no reservation required). You can pay by cash to driver upon arrival. Travelling by highway bus is very easy and much cheaper compared to booking a private car or grab all the way from Miri centre to Niah cave. Do try it out! As a slow solo hiker, I took 4 hours to visit all 3 caves and orang asli village. I would recommend to hike as early as possible as the weather is cooler, and less crowd (which you could take as many picture as you can without anyone in the picture!). There are 2 orang Iban ladies selling some drink and souvenirs on the half way, you need to pay RM0.50 to use the toilet as well. I enjoy every moment of hike and scenery. The caves were amazing to see! Do prepare good hiking shoes, torchlight, gloves, ample drinking water. Watch out your steps as the caves are slippery, some wooden planks are broken as well.

As a Malaysian, i have learned about the size of the caves from the school text books but i couldn't imagine how magnificently large and beautiful it is. Words and photos are insufficient to describe the size and beauty of these caves. There's a total of 4 show caves separated into 2 places: Deer and Lang caves are side-by-side: 3km walk from the park HQ - it is also the place to watch the 'bat exodus' Wind and Clear Water caves: requires a boat ride to reach; there are many stairs in these 2 caves but it's definitely worth the effort. - to visit: please prepare a torch light, poncho (just in case it rains), hiking shoes with good grip (could be slippery); and always, listen to the guide - they are there to make sure of our safety and comfort. on the side note: I believe this is the most well-maintained national park in Sarawak - clean and tidy.

Its only a short drive/visit. One side you see palm oil plantation and the other side you can see endless shoreline. Theres a Grand Old Lady on top as a monument and a Petroleum Museum. Highly recommended for a stop.
