Day 10 will be a longer ride with beautiful winding roads through nature parks, where we will also ride on one of the steepest roads in Malaysia, but we will also drive along the coast, so a nice varied ride. During this day you can also book a nice option that extends this ride with an extra day.

We leave Sipitang early because we have a long day ahead of us, including breaks to relax on the beautiful beaches of Kuala Penyu.

The first planned stop is in Beaufort, you can choose to stop just before the city at a large market (RP4) where there are several restaurants, cafes and shops for a drink or a meal. You can also choose to eat something in the center of the city, for this you have to take the third exit at the roundabout (RP6).

Just outside the city the river Klias starts in the Klias Wetlands, here River-Cruises are offered in several places, such as at RP8, where you go down the river with an open boat through the mangrove forest reserve, where you will see wildlife such as the proboscis monkey, macaques, the rare silver sloth, crocodiles and other wildlife. Booking a Klias river cruise will add another day to your itinerary as it is an all day cruise.

Another interesting stop is a visit to the Rumbia Information Center (RP10). No part of the sago palm, also called rumbia, is discarded. The locals used the leaf for food (starch), as a roofing material, and the branches (known locally as kumbar) for making the walls of their homes. Floor mats, baskets in different sizes and shapes are some examples of things made entirely from different parts of the plant. The information center holds exhibits on handicrafts made from the sago plant and a demonstration on how to make sago treats.

The next part of the journey takes you along the coast with beautiful beaches and resorts, for lovers of the white sand and lukewarm water there are a number of options included to stop and relax on the beach, such as Naga Puri Beach Retreat (RP12), Kipaun Beach (RP13) and Sawangan Beach (RP14). Of course you can always book an extra night.

From Kimanis we drive to the end of this day in Keningau. You drive on the steepest road in Malaysia, ranging from 10% to about 25% steep slopes along the Crocker Range National Park (RP20). This road meanders through the Crocker Range National Park (Malay: Taman Negara Banjaran Crocker) which was established in 1984, before that the area was protected as a forest reserve.
It covers the north-south Crocker Range, from 1200-1800 meter high mountains in Sabah, Malaysia. A resort that provides accommodation and meals is located near the park's headquarters. Other visitor facilities such as an exhibition center, insectarium, fernarium, viewing tower and trekking path can also be found.

The park covers 1,399 km², making it the largest park in Sabah. The park consists of both hill and mountain forests, with many species of flora and fauna of Borneo. Maintaining this forest cover is essential to ensure a clean water supply for many of Sabah's cities and communities.

The park contains at least five primate species, such as the orangutan, gibbons and the furry tarsier with its huge round eyes, and extremely social long-tailed macaques. The Padas River cuts the range between Beaufort and Tenom.

After this scenic drive through the park you will arrive in Keningau, where you can spend the night in one of the hotels.
