Discover Gunung Gading National Park in Kuching, Sarawak, where one may witness spectacular Rafflesia flowers amidst an enchanting rainforest environment. Engaging trails offer opportunities for exploring diverse flora and fauna within this verdant ecosystem.
Upon departure from your hotel, the tour commences with a scheduled pickup at 8:00 AM. Upon arrival at the hotel lobby, guests are greeted by our welcoming driver who proceeds with the tour. The journey unfolds as we navigate towards Gunung Gading National Park, approximately two hours away from Kuching City. This scenic route offers an opportunity to witness the captivating spectacle of the rare 'Rafflesia', known for its exceptional blooms, though such occurrences are infrequent and limited in duration. Gunung Gading is renowned for its diverse array of flora, housing several endemic species, including the colossal Rafflesia tree, also referred to as the "bunga pakma" or "bunga rafflesia". These magnificent flowers reach up to one meter in width when fully blossomed, displaying a strikingly vivid brown hue. They grow on specific vine hosts and mature into towering giants over time. Visitors are encouraged to explore the park through designated plank walks, designed to enhance accessibility to areas where Rafflesias thrive. Guided tours may be offered by park rangers, providing insights into the natural habitats and ecosystems within the park. Additionally, should the Rafflesia be in bloom, visitors might be invited to venture further into the dense forest, immersing themselves in the serene beauty of nature.
