Gunung Mulu National Park | Sarawak, Malaysia
Trek through various caves like Lagang and Clearwater Cave filled with protruding stalagmites and flying bats for a creepy adventure that is close to Batman’s origin as you’ll ever get. A treat is to take a 2-night hike to The Pinnacles which are a bunch of 45m limestone spikes jutting out from the vegetation where climbers aim for the peak to catch a breathtaking view of the surrounding jungle. Or follow the trail and walk along Paku river that leads to the dainty yet equally stunning Paku Waterfall.
