This year’s World Environment Day, marked on June 5, calls on people to get outdoors into nature, to appreciate its beauty and importance.

One way to really celebrate this is to go deep into the mountainous interior of Sarawak, Sabah, and Krayan province in Kalimantan, Indonesia, with the second Heart of Borneo (HoB) Highlands Eco Challenge (HEC) on July 20-29.
