Hippink Adventure: Tambunan Tower

Nahhh This one also LAMAAAAA(been awhile) wanted to post but well…

So last time without planning we decided to spend our weekend out from Kota Kinabalu area but still within radius that you can go back home before the day end. We chose the famous tower for this year since its VISIT TAMBUNAN for Sabah 2017. Some called them Sinurambi Tower some just call it the Tambunan Tower. Oh before I proceed Tambunan is within 1 hour drive begitulah from Kota Kinabalu through Penampang route. Did you know you can GO TAMBUNAN through Keningau and Ranau too? Hehe in 2015 me and my cousins went to Keningau from Papar to Tambunan and Ranau where we went to Mahua Waterfall and Tandem Paragliding at Ranau. (Will share about it next time).

So this famous tower where if you search on instagram and Facebook…theres a lot of photo on this tower. But little that we know….on how the route to reach that place…BY CAR. I saw that you can hike here too but not very sure on the route path lah~ So bah WAZE lah apa lagikan!

It was very funny..scary and tiring to find this place that mana lagi our internet line not very good that day. We still didn’t wanna ask the villagers haha…BANTINGAL kan (STUBBORN). I think the first time the waze confused us to the route to Keningau-Tambunan famous hiking place astagahhhhh~~Maybe it was our internet line that its been delaying the direction order. Takkan maw hike with this attire haha and with this short time. That time the clock ticking 2pm ka hahahaha.

Nevertheless, we didn’t give up…yet. Almost lah. Waze confused us again to very grable route with lots of cow and very quiet place. I guess…thats the route for the hiking maybe. Poor my car. Haha kesian tu Axia 1.0. We nearly give up but after went back to the Town I saw things like WAKID (Sabahan Traditional Basket the one like you use to pick the tea leaves) on top of the veryyyyyy high hill~~ alaaa I said..can ka my car go there. But I remember in peoples photo that theres car parking near the tower..so we decided to go and try again but we decided to use the main road to TRUS MADI area ka tu the name. Yang got homestay di bawah2 hahaha…and one of the path for Tambunan Charity Run tu.

Againnnnnnnnnnnn…Waze line was not good for my Maxis and Digi that time so we missed the junction labelled Trus Madi something2…I forgot the name. And ended up attttttttttt

DEAD END wahhhhh SCARY GILA. SUMARAT2 sia

But then I said…got people enter the junction we missed earlier..lets follow even though my travel buddy said JANGANLAH (Lets not) but I insist. Nahhhh baru jumpa the SIGNAGE. Why bah the signage not from the Town huhuhuhuhuhuh or we didn’t see them? But again the road are very grable but I think they will fix it later since theres another construction nearby tower perhaps a homestay?

Bah if motorcycle and my axia can go up the hill…yakin saja ok???

The view? MMM….haha bolehlah. But the tower…I love them~~

Heres my photo~~and after that we went back home through Tambunan-Ranau route hahahahahaha
