Trek the jungle kingdom of Borneo
Swing (well, trek) through a jungle. Walk (well, climb) up south East Asia's highest mountain. And then drift (very quickly) down some rapids. How's that for an adventure?
Discover a wealth of weird and wonderful wildlife by bike, raft and on foot
Join Barnardo's on the trek of a lifetime through one of the world's most spectacular and endangered habitats.
Over two days, you'll cycle past 'old men of the woods' and trek high above flying foxes to the summit of Mount Kinabalu, the highest mountain in South East Asia. Then, to finish, you'll white-water raft through jungle filled with exotic plants and creatures like clouded leopards and bearded pigs.
Oh, did I mention there are rare Asian elephants, rhinoceroses and long-nosed proboscis monkeys too?
