In the afternoon, we went back to the National Park. The following is the other guest house. It’s always full house due to it’s competitive price.
At 2pm, we visited the Tropicana Forest’s treetop canopy. It’s known as the Canopy Skywalk, the world most longest tree top canopy walk (480m length, 20-35m height). Tourist requires RM30 for entry.
According to the tour guide, we’ll only see the birds or the animals living on tree in the morning. Afternoon will usually won’t be able to see a thing due to the hot weather. However, I was lucky enough to see a few groups of horn-bill flew above my head.
Sky canopy walk is about the 30-40m height (refer to the diagram):
| On our way back from the Sky Canopy Walk, we saw a lot of the millipedes (left) and the dragonfly (right) | |

We then plan to hike the Palat Hill that’s located opposite the Mulu Royal Resort (FOC). It took us about 10 minutes to reach and we could actually have a complete view of the resort and our own accommodation.
After dinner, took a photo from the river opposite the Royal Mulu Resort. Palat Hill is the one at the right of the photo.
