nice trails, kind staff, chalets: nice design and great location, but a bit cleaner would be highly desirable (many cockroaches, even on my skin at night yuk!).

The only reason I haven't given Kubah 5 stars is because it has Bako National Park to compete with - and it just isn't quite as good! Kubah is fabulous if you don't have time to get Bako or if you're not quite so outdoorsy that you want to commit Bako. Kubah has several excellent hikes that only take a... More

The waterfall was wonderful, but you need to be careful on the way. The decking of the pathway is really falling apart - space yourselves; no more than one person on a section!

I caught the bus to Kubah National Park and hiked to the waterfall and to the viewpoint. The bus was very easy to catch as you just go to the main bus terminal and tell them you want to go to Kubah. It was only about 3 Ringgit each way. Both of them were nice treks, and I was prepared... More

Was awesome especially Matang Wildlife Centre - they are doing amazing conservation work and are constantly expanding and improving. Surreal settings and amazing people.... can't ask for anything more! (Take your mozzy spray though!!)

Summit trail: very exhausting uphill trek on a concrete road. it took us 1,5 hours to go up but afterwards we were really exhausted. 45 min down. we had... More

After visiting the Matang Wildlife Centre, I brought my family to the stream for a dip. The water was beautiful and the local families barbecuing at the stream were friendly. However, it was disappointing to see heaps of rubbish everywhere that attracted flies and even domestic cats! Perhaps there should be huge signs reminding picnickers to bring their rubbish home.

I took the public bus service to Kubah National Park and had the best time in Kuching... Made my way to the bus terminal in the morning to catch the K21 service. To Kubah timing: 8am, 11am, 2pm, 4.30pm. Back: 6.30m, 9.30am, 12.30pm, 3.30pm. Bus timing is an estimate and buses do come and leave early. My bus to Kubah... More
