Ladang Tenusu Desa Cattle

5.3
4.7/5
98 reviews
Ladang Tenusu Desa Cattle is located on the Mesilau Plateau at the foot of the sacred Mount Kinabalu. It is a dairy farming and processing base owned by a major local dairy company in Sabah, covering nearly 200 hectares. The plateau has a cool climate with rolling grassy slopes, where herds of Holstein cows graze leisurely. Clouds often drift among the mountains, and the scenery has a touch of New Zealand, which is why it is often called the "Little New Zealand" of Sabah. Most farm experiences revolve around the cows: you can feed calves with milk bottles, feed grass to sheep, and get up close to the farm animals. You can also watch the milking, processing, and packaging process through glass, learning about the journey of a glass of fresh milk from the farm to the table.Kundasang · 3.7 km from downtown

Amazing experience but not much cow can see!Variety of dairy product to buy.Tips: For best experience visit early morning, can see visible Gunung Kinabalu from entrance, avoid crowds and less heat from the sun!

Mount Kinabalu is very beautiful! It is the highest peak in Malaysia, with an altitude of 4095.2 meters. The whole journey is very shaky, but there is no dangerous terrain. It is only 8.5k from Timpohin to the top of the mountain, but the altitude rises to 2228.8 meters. There are rich ecological plants and magnificent mountain views along the way. It is really recommended!

Sosodikon Hill Kundasang地址: Kg Kauluan Peti Surat 873, 89308 Kundasang, Sabah, 马来西亚开放时间:6.00am-17.00pm门票:MyKad 为 RM 5,非 MyKad 为 RM 10Highlight: 昆达山与京那巴鲁山的美妙 360 度全景。徒步上山并不难。风景不错,几分钟就走到了,观景台的风很大,差点吹成面瘫。不过拍出来的风景很值得,一面是kk山,一面是像抹茶蛋糕一样的小山坡。幸运的话,是可以看到整座神山,不被云雾阻挡。对于那些开车到 Sosodikon 山脚下的人来说,可以停车,但如果你在高峰时间在那里停车可能会有点棘手。通往 Sosodikon 的道路也有些颠簸。总的来说值得一游。评分: 4/5
