[2025 Kundasang Attraction] Travel Guide for Sosodikon Hill Kundasang (Updated Jan)

November is the rainy season in Sabah (the rainy season is said to be from October to February) The rainy season can't stop us from having fun Rainy Sabah gave us a very different experience! 1. Mari Mari Cultural Village (recommended 👍) 2. Desa Dairy Farm - a must-see! 3. Sosodikon Hill - a windy place 🌬️🍃 4. Poring Hot Spring - go deeper, there are 6 canopy walks waiting for you to conquer (hiking 550m required) *forgot to take a picture of the hot spring 🤭 5. Kinabalu Park - for those who want to visit the Kinabalu Geopark Gallery, it opens at 9 am 6. Kundasang Market - selling all kinds of fresh fruits, vegetables, flowers, and plants 7. Filipino Market 8. The Art Attic & 9. Salt and Paper - niche literary products (I bought beautiful magnets and stickers)

#familytrips2024 #awesomepic #visitsabah Trail was rocky but not slippery, it is definitely suitable for anyone to climb up the hill and enjoy this mezmerizing view of Kinabalu in the background. Entrance fee was RM 10 but they do not really have specific/ designated parking area for this park so take note on which time, date or day that are more busy (such holiday) for you to avoid the crowd. You may park alongside the road and there was also, one small cleared area where I saw several cars being parked (not sure if that was an official parking area). Also, it is a very small road driving up here, do pay extra careful on the road.

#malaysia We reached there at 6am and the sky is already bright but the sun is still hiding behind the mountain. By the time we reach the viewing platform the sun is out. I believe dawn is the best time to be there as there is not many visitors and you can catch the best sky light view very clear view of the mountain. The climb is slightly tough for veterans but was ok for me. Entrance fee of RM5 is really worthy for the view we catched. One of the must visit place in kundasang! To get there, follow Google maps or waze directions and park at the hill entrance. There’s a ticket booth right at infront of the entrance.

Still in Kundasang, Sabah 😁 Now we go to Sosodikon Hill, one of the tourist attraction in Sabah. Wonderful 360 degree view of Kundasang with Mount Kinabalu. Trekking up the hill was not difficult but would recommend proper shoes. This is not really a challenging trek so even if you are fat, you still canclimb. The view is very pleasure up there, especially when you climb in the morning (6am) because you still can see the Mount Kinabalu very clearly. For those driving to the foothill of Sosodikon, parking is available but if you are there at a peak time then parking may be a bit tricky. The access road to Sosodikon is also a bit of a bumpy ride. I forget how much the entrance fee but it's affordable (below rm5). Overall worth it! #awesomepic#tripblazers#staycation#urbanexplorer#mytripvlog#bucketlistreboot

Mount Kinabalu is still stunningly gorgeous even on a cloudy day. These photos remind me of the view in New Zealand or Switzerland, you must visit here. The entrance fee is only 5 ringgit and please come early in the morning to see the clear view and avoid the hot sun ☀️

Sosodikon Hill Kg Kauluan Kundasang is located near the Desa Cattle Dairy Farm Kundasang, and the entrance to Sosodikon Hill is located adjacent to the dairy farm village entrance Sosodikon is derived from the dusun language word ‘sodik,’ which refers to a type of traditional trap used in the past by the local community to catch animals such as deer, squirrels, birds, and other small animals. In the past, when this hill area was still thickly forested, the local community of “villagers” would frequently come here to set traps. Sosodikon refers to a place where traps can be laid.

Join a day tour to Kundasang in Sabah. Although we didn't challenge the summit, this leisurely trip allowed me to experience the richness and natural charm of the surrounding attractions. Early in the morning, we departed from the city, and the scenic drive was picturesque. The winding mountain roads gradually took us away from the hustle and bustle of the city, replaced by lush tropical rainforests and magnificent mountain views. As the car approached Kinabalu National Park, the towering peaks suddenly came into view, making us marvel at the grandeur of nature. The first stop of the itinerary was the Kundasang Botanical Garden. Here, I saw many rare plants, including the carnivorous pitcher plants unique to Sabah, and beautiful orchids. The guide's explanation was very interesting, telling us that Kundasang is one of the most biodiverse areas in the world. The survival strategies and environmental adaptability of these plants left me in awe. Next, we arrived at Poring Hot Springs. The hot springs here are said to have soothing effects on the body and mind. I took off my shoes and dipped my feet into the warm spring water, instantly feeling all my fatigue wash away. There was also a canopy walk, which was my favorite experience. Standing on the high suspension bridge overlooking the entire forest, I felt both nervous and excited. The gentle breeze through the treetops brought an indescribable sense of peace. Lunch was at a local restaurant, where simple Malay cuisine made us feel warm and satisfied. Afterward, we visited the Desa Cattle Dairy Farm, known as 'Little New Zealand.' The cows grazing on the meadows and the distant view of Kundasang made the photos look like postcards. Tasting the local fresh milk and cheese ice cream was the perfect ending to this trip. Although this day trip was relaxing, I gained a deeper understanding of the nature and culture around Kundasang. Next time I visit Sabah, I hope to have the opportunity to challenge the summit and personally experience the thrill of looking down on the world from above.

The golden light and morning mist create a serene and unforgettable atmosphere. Don’t forget to apply sunscreen before your hike to protect your skin, as the sun can be strong even in the morning. Wear comfortable shoes, bring a light jacket for the early morning chill, and, of course, your camera to capture the stunning views!
