Bagging It!

Gunung Sinsing is part of the large Trusmadi range and lies around 8 kilometres north-east of the slightly higher parent peak Trusmadi. Depending on how you classify separate mountains, Sinsing is the third-highest peak in Sabah and Borneo and indeed Malaysia as a whole. The trailhead is completely different to the Trusmadi trailheads and Sinsing is usually hiked in conjunction with another high peak, Gunung Kaingaran (2,468m), which lies around 3 kilometres to the north-east of Sinsing and has a prominence of around 300 metres. The trek usually takes 3 or 4 days in total. More information coming later in 2023!
