Bako National Park
Sarawak's oldest national park was
established in 1957, covers a modest 27 sq.
km., and is about 37km from Kuching. It's
known for its extraordinary natural scenery,
habitats, plants and wildlife.
Its most significant features are secluded
coves and rugged rocky headlands with
magnificent steep cliffs that overlook the
South China Sea.
The sea spray, wave action and the wind
have also carved out magnificent sea arches
and sea stacks at the base of the cliffs, some
rearing above the waves like a mighty
serpent's head.
The attractive sandstone formations appear
pink with iron patterns on the cliff. Further
inland, waterfalls tumble down into
freshwater pools in a tranquil and idyllic
jungle setting.
Bako contains an incredible variety of plant
species and vegetation types, and this is one
of the park's great attractions. At Bako it is
possible to see almost every type of
vegetation found in Borneo.
proboscis monkeys, found only in Borneo.
The best times for seeing wildlife at Bako are
just after dawn and just before dusk, when
the animals are at their most active. Bako is
a fascinating place for bird watching, as over
150 species have been recorded here.
Bako's extensive trail system is made up of
16 colour-coded jungle trails which offer a
range of walking and hiking options. The fit
and adventurous can opt for full-day jungle
hikes or overnight camping expeditions,
whilst those who prefer to take it easy can opt
for a relaxing forest walk.
