Expedition in Borneo with World Challenge Borneo jungle trekking expedition School expedition in Malaysia

Acclimatisation phase
Spend your first day finding your feet in the city before easing your way into the expedition by completing some gentle trekking through the jungle or at some low altitude hill stations. Explore the networks of trails and get used to the heat and carrying your rucksack before embarking on your challenging trekking phase.

Main trekking phase
Experience the thrill of trekking through some of the world’s oldest jungle environments. Treks will typically last between 4 – 7 days and will provide you with an amazing opportunity to spend time exploring both primary and secondary jungle. You will learn how to set up jungle camps as well as receiving some interesting lessons in jungle survival from your guides.

Project phase
The project phase of an expedition to Borneo is usually based in a small village, where challengers live and interact with the local community. Teams become familiar with the community and are exposed to the lifestyle and culture of the village, a great cultural experience. In some circumstances there may the opportunity to do manual labour within the village.

Rest and relaxation
Sample the delicious local food at one of the many nightmarkets, shop for souvenirs in the nearby shopping malls and souvenir batik shops, take the time to catch some rays of sunshine on the beach or maybe even challenge yourselves to go white water rafting.
