Lambir    National    Park

The Lambir Hills are visible from Miri (a 30-minutes-drive away) as a chain of steep sandstone hills bound by rugged cliffs. The higher ridges and slopes (up to the peak at 450m) are covered by heath forest while the lower slopes and valleys are dominated by huge stands of mixed dipterocarp forest. The ground flora consists of an unusual variety of palms which give an exotic feel to the park. Plant enthusiasts will be interested to know that Lambir Hills may well possess the most number of rich forest species.

Wildlife such as the Bornean gibbon, bearded pig and barking deer are found at Lambir Hills. There are also more than a hundred birds species in the park. Lambir's numerous waterfalls attract many visitors from Miri and Brunei. A 40-meters tree tower provides an excellent platform to view the diptreocarp forest and for bird-watching.

Other facilities include resthouses for overnight-trippers, an eatery and and information centre.
