Bako National Park, Sarawak’s oldest, spans just 10 square miles but encompasses seven distinct ecosystems, including lush rain forests and dense mangroves. This compact park is a haven for diverse wildlife, such as the long-nosed proboscis monkeys, bearded pigs, and the intriguing mudskippers, known for their ability to ‘walk’ on land. Visitors can also explore a rich variety of plant life, from vibrant orchids to the carnivorous pitcher plants. The park offers a unique opportunity to experience the natural diversity of Borneo in a condensed and accessible setting.
