Best Time to Join
The Kundasang Nature Day Tour can be enjoyed all year round, but the best time to join is during the dry season from February to August, when the weather is clearer and the mountain views are at their most stunning.
During these months, you’ll have a higher chance of catching an unobstructed view of Mount Kinabalu, especially in the morning before the mist settles over the peaks. Clearer skies also make the Canopy Walk and outdoor activities more comfortable and enjoyable.
If you prefer cooler temperatures and lush green scenery, the monsoon months from September to January offer a refreshing highland atmosphere, though occasional rain showers may occur. This season enhances the beauty of Kundasang’s landscapes, making it ideal for travelers who appreciate misty mountain vibes and serene surroundings.
Regardless of the month, the tour is most enjoyable on weekdays, when attractions like Desa Dairy Farm and the hot springs are less crowded. For the best overall experience, mornings provide the most pleasant weather, allowing you to make the most of every stop on the Kundasang Nature Day Tour.
