With darkness all around, it is perhaps the toughest part of the trek, but the sunrise views from the summit offer ample recompense.<\/p>\n<p>For further information, get in touch with one of our expert travel consultants at <strong><a href=\"mailto:malaysia@exotravel.com\">malaysia@exotravel.com<\/a>\u00a0or <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.exotravel.com\/travel\/malaysia\/tours\/climb-mighty-mt-kinabalu\/\">view the full itinerary here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Towering majestically over Kota Kinabalu, the state capital of Sabah, Mount Kinabalu has a formidable reputation.
