As you get to Telupid town you'll reach a round-a-bout ... if you go left it'll get you to town -> straight would get you to Sandakan and right will get you to Tongod .. you'll turn right .. until you get to these to Signs(by the way this is North Borneo.. Sabah.. :)) it's 41KM approximately 20Miles.??? .. of gravel, stones,, mud .. and off roading ... :) was it ugly road?.. pretty ugly.. :)
a river crossing.. not so deep when we crossed it .. but the ranger did say if it were rainy season your 2 day trip would probably take a week.. :) .. go figure..
as you get closer to the Research Center.. take note of the sign.. you want to go to Tampoi Research Station first.. that's where you get all the open air hostels.. camp ground and you get yourself registered.. you'll be greeted by wonderful and helpful rangers.. and they brief you on what you can and cannot do there.. jungle trekking is a must if you wanna see the flora and fauna.. but make sure you are equipped with trekking gear.. means no slippers no shorts no perfume --- ada limatok.. jungle leaches.. lintah darat.. sya pun hampir kana hisap .:) gajah beruang ular sawah ular cobra.. . all the wild animals you can think of ..
well here's the other place you can relax.. the imbak waterfalls.. just to let you know .. we did .. i mean jump into the water.. hahaha..
it took us about 2 hours to through the graveled road.. it was a slow ride cuz it was bumpy and all.. by the way didn't really show you the way.. but don't worry there are people around to let you know.. :)
YAY .. i've now been to almost 70% if Sabah.. :)
