The Via ferrata of Mount Kinabalu (Malay: Gunung Kinabalu) was found in 2007, it was verified by Guinness World Records as the highest (3,776 meters above sea level) via ferrata in the world.
Via ferrata is a high risk activity, so there is a briefing before it starts, besides the introduction of route and the meeting time, it also has demonstrations and practices.
If you want to play Via ferrata, you need to arrive at the meeting point on or before 7:30 am, you will miss it if you’re late, no refund.
The eyebrows of Choumeizai are thick, which makes him look strong and reliable, so Choumeizai is elected by two Singaporean teens to be the captain of the group.
The weather today is excellent, it is sunny and not windy, the clouds are torn by the breezes, soft and light, happily adorn the scenery of the mountain.
The whole Low’s peak circuit can be divided in three phases, the phase 2 is trekking in the forest, you can trek by your own feet, no rope and metal fixture is needed.
The forest is desolate and inaccessible for most people, there are plenty of plants which are only found in Mount Kinabalu, the landscape here is interesting, what a wonderful secret garden.
All trees here are over 100 years old, their trunks are twisted in a weird way, but still survive tenaciously.
Phase 3 is the last phase of the journey, it is similar to phase 1, you also need to move by metal fixtures, but all of us are tired and dehydrated, the situation becomes more difficult.
Please note that once Via ferrata has started, you need to finish it until the end, you cannot quit in the middle.
Via ferrata (Italian for ‘iron path’) is a protected climbing route found in the Alps and certain other locations.
