Lambir Hills National Park, Sarawak, Malaysia

4.0 (172 reviews) Wednesday: 8:00 AM - 3:00 PM Spent Ranking #4 in Sarawak Canyons

Suitable for Hiking by Adults, Picnic at Waterfall, Not Much Other Facilities, and Lack of Maintenance

Despite the city of Miri having a large community of expatriates and locals keen on exploring outdoors, Lambir National Park has not taken serious efforts to be the major attraction in Miri for recreation, family get-together, and relaxation. No new facilities added for the last 10 years. Existing facilities continue to crumble (small bridges across streams along the trail, and tree tower are mostly damaged). Other national parks like Poring (Sabah) and Mulu (Sarawak) have more facilities (well maintained trail, canopy walk, tree tower). Addition of those facilities, including children playground, garden with flower trees, and expansion of pool section at the waterfall may be able to attract more attendance. And in return, the canteen could also be in operation. Different fees structure (for using the facilities could also be considered (like what is done at Poring). As of now, Lambir National Park is only suitable for hiking or picnic at the waterfall.

Nice and easy access waterfall.
Nice waterfall easily accessible. If rainy the way can be very slippery and a stick may be helpful. The stairs and some parts of the trek should be reworked in order to be less dangerous. The ropes are too small and should be replaced by bigger one, more easy to hold. Leech socks and mosquito repellent are recommended. Price is double for foreigner, even x4 for seniors.
