TAWAU HILLS PARK

Tawau is home to a breathtaking, untouched rainforest teeming with a vast array of biodiversity. We've documented 338 bird species, 107 mammal species, 51 snake species, and 84 frog species. Your daily activities will involve early morning, late afternoon, and nighttime excursions in search of the myriad of wildlife. We'll be on the lookout for the Red Leaf Langur, Gibbons, Hornbills, intriguing insects, frogs, and snakes. Please remember, we can't assure wildlife sightings as this is a wilderness, not a zoo!
