Mount Kinabalu Summit Climbing Resumes March 5 with Daily Cap

Climbing activities to the summit of Mount Kinabalu are set to resume on Friday, March 5. The daily limit for climbers will be capped at 100 individuals to manage capacity.
Resumption Date Announced

Sabah Parks (TTS) officially announced on its Facebook page that climbing activities, which had been suspended since January 13, would recommence on March 5. This decision allows adventurers to once again undertake the ascent of Malaysia's highest peak.
Daily Capacity Limit

A key stipulation for the resumption of climbing is the implementation of a daily limit. Only 100 people will be permitted to climb to the summit each day, a measure likely in place to ensure manageable visitor numbers and adherence to safety protocols.
Health Screening Requirements

Participants are required to undergo Covid-19 screening tests within three days prior to their climb. Only those who receive negative results will be allowed to proceed. Vaccinated climbers are exempted from this mandatory screening requirement.
Flexible Registration and Refund Policy

The announced Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) also permit walk-in registrations on the day of the climb, provided negative Covid-19 test results are presented. Climbers are responsible for the cost of their screening tests. In cases where a climber tests positive for Covid-19, a refund of the climbing fee will be provided if the park is notified in writing before 10 am on the scheduled climbing day.
