The Pinnacles, Mulu is a formation of rocks located near Mulu, close to the city of Miri in Sarawak and is famed for it's beautiful scenery and very difficult trail. The trail is 14km long and according to Mr. Chua, the breakdown is about 11.3km flat-land trekking and a ball-busting 2.4km uphill towards the pinnacles.
Mr. Chua himself is a well-known trekker and has done the pinnacles trail a number of times. This year, he is arranging the trek again and invited me along. The trip of course is opened to anyone who's up for the challenge.
