Opt for a sunrise hiking package at 3am for 2 person (RM 230 could be shared among 5 person). The journey is about 3.3km one way, taking less than 2 hours to reach the top. The view is quite magnificent on the observation deck, probably due to the good weather. Sunrise, sea of cloud and a great view of Mount Kinabalu.

Back for our hotel breakfast, is very good with a lot to eat (cereal, toast and main meal) in a nice environment.

A garden in Kinabalu Park, entrance fee is RM 4. The garden is pretty well maintained, with quite some interesting flowers and plants.

There are quite a few hiking trails in the park, which are short but quite nice. The signs are not quite clear, so it is better to download hiking trail map app. We hike the tupai and burung trail for about 1 hour.

A popular road side viewpoint of Mount Kinabalu, at Kundasang town centre.

Enjoy local dusun dishes, linopot rice. Also ayam kicap and salai ayam, with local vegetables. The meal is pretty good, linopot rice is good.

A tiny house homestay, which is quite tiny (not good for movement and luggage), but fun and unique as well. There are some house rules like no shoes in door (yet no safe place to keep shoes outdoor), and a list of banned fruit (mangoes, mangosteen, etc.) to be consumed indoor. The place is within a village, with plenty of other homestays, and a good view of Mount Kinabalu.
