Its Me...
I laugh, I love, I hope, I try I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry. And I know you do the same things too, So we're really not that different, me and you.
Largest Cave in the WORLD is in Malaysia...WOW!!!!
Sarawak Chamber (Advanced)
World Heritage | RM500 for 1 - 5 persons extra person RM100, |
(Advanced – requires Park Manager approval)
Sarawak Chamber is a tour for visitors that
- Can demonstrate current membership of an internationally recognized speleological society or caving group, or
- Can provide details of* previous caving experience or
- have completed one of the easier tours at Mulu first.
Sarawak Chamber is a challenging trek even for fit and experienced cavers. Taking one very full day, beginning at 6.30 am at the Park HQ office you will follow the Summit Trail for about 3 hours. Access to the chamber is via Gua Nasib Bagus (Good Luck Cave) taking about 3 hours along a 800 metre river channel with sheer rock faces rising to about 50 metres on either side.
After a 200 metre traverse and a steep boulder slope you come face to face with the inky blackness of earth’s largest chamber. Enjoy a short rest at the mouth of the chamber, before the return trip.
You will need to have good hiking boots, a day pack, raincoat, lunch, water, personal first aid kit and a back up torch. You will be provided with a caving helmet, head lamp and ropes as required.
If the water levels are too high, the tour must be cancelled and the group returns to Park headquarters.
CANCELLATION BY THE PARK STAFF
- If the trek is cancelled before leaving the Park office then there will be a full refund.
- Once you have left the Park Office there will be no refund whatever the reason for the tour not going all the way to Sarawak Chamber eg, fitness levels, water levels or sickness.
- If during the trek to the cave entrance the guide believes that water levels will be too high in Sarawak Chamber but still suitable at Drunken Forest then the tour will be changed at no extra charge.
