Description

Enchanting Borneo describes the treasure house of natural beauty and biodiversity to be found in the Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak, the independent Sultanate of Brunei and the Indonesian state of Kalimantan. Described by Charles Darwin as 'one great luxuriant hothouse made by nature for herself', Borneo is home to a rich profusion of flora and fauna, including 673 bird species; a diversity of mammals including the Proboscis Monkey, the Bornean Pygmy Elephant and the Orang-Utan; and an immense variety of marine life, invertebrates, amphibians and reptiles.

From the spectacular peak of Mount Kinabalu, one of the tallest mountains in Southeast Asia, to the depths of one of the world's largest caves in Sarawak's Mulu National Park and encompassing some of the world's most exotic wildlife-watching locations along the Kinabatangan river and at Danum Valley, this fully updated third edition describes an unrivalled destination for adventurous and eco travellers.
