A hiker navigating the remote, seldom-travelled trail to Mount Tambuyukon, facing a challenging journey through rugged, uncharted terrain that promises both endurance and solitude.

Towering Mount Kinabalu may dominate the landscape in Sabah. But in the rugged terrain of the Bornean state, there is another hidden gem for intrepid trekkers.

Rising at 2,579m, Mount Tambuyukon ranks as the third-highest mountain in Malaysia, overshadowed only by Mount Kinabalu and scenic Mount Trusmadi.
