Bako National Park

A National Park since 1957, Bako offers the perfect introduction to Sarawak’s forests and wildlife.  The park covers the northern tip of the Muara Tebas peninsula, an area of 27 sq km.  Despite its seemingly small size, Bako contains a wide range of vegetation – swamp forest, scrub-like ‘padang’ vegetation, mangrove forest, dipterocarp forest, delicate cliff vegetation and more.   In fact, at Bako it is possible to see almost every type of vegetation found in Borneo. Bako also contains a rich variety of wildlife and a coastline covered with small bays, coves and beaches.  The park has a number of well-marked trails offering interesting walks ranging from short pleasant strolls to serious full-day hikes.  Unlike some national parks, visitors to Bako are almost guaranteed to see wildlife.  Long-tailed macaque monkeys and silver leaf monkeys are ever present, wild boar are often found rummaging around the park HQ, squirrels and monitor lizards are also common. There is every chance of seeing the rare and unusual proboscis monkeys on trails such as Telok Paku and Telok Delima, particularly if you go late afternoon.  You are more likely to see wildlife if you quietly follow the trails and keep listening.  For example, you’ll probably hear the crash of vegetation before you are able to locate a proboscis monkey high up in the forest canopy. 

Bako also has some good white sand beaches that provide perfect resting spots in between jungle treks.  Telok Pandan Kecil is perhaps Bako’s best beach.  After an hour or so the Telok Pandan Kecil trail comes to a rocky headland.  The view down to a beautiful secluded bay, and the thought of a swim in the cool waters, has a magical effect on tired calf muscles.  The following 20 minute descent suddenly becomes more enjoyable.  All of the beaches are bordered by limestone and sandstone cliffs, and the action of the sea has left some remarkable rock formations, such as the famous Sea Stack.

Bidayuh - The Land Dayak

Bidayuh Traditional Costume

               Bidayuh is the collective name for several indigenous groups found in southern Sarawak. These groups are categorized as one because their language and culture is similar. The Bidayuh itself means ‘inhabitants of land’. Over time this group has been known by many names. During the White Rajah’s time, they were known as Land Dayaks, but were officially named Bidayuh by the Sarawakian government in 2002.

                   Some Bidayuh community lives in small villages close to Kuching, while the others close to the border of Indonesia such as Serikin and Tebedu. They include six main dialectical subgroups: Bau-Bidayuh, Biatah-Penrissen, Bukar-Sadong, Padawan-Sembaan, Rara and Salako. They mostly lives in mountainous areas, from one hillside to another, living solely on plantation. Before the British era, they were all believe in Animist, but today, many of them were Christian and some becoming a Muslim.
