Overview

Tabin Wildlife Reserve is a premier borneans sanctuary spanning vast lowland rainforests teeming with Bornean birds and mammals. Its striking terrain features the active Lipad Mud Volcano, where fresh animal tracks reveal frequent wildlife visits, while rainforest trails wind toward the Lipad Waterfall and the colossal Tabin Giant Tree. As daylight fades, night safaris uncover the hidden world of nocturnal creatures beneath starlit skies, while early morning birdwatching and guided treks offer a full immersion into the wild, untamed heart of Borneo.
