TEA GARDEN

Sabah’s tea is getting popular in recent years. The Sabah Tea plantation in Ranau is a hot tourist spot. The tea factory is opened to the public in the morning. For other hour pre-booking is required.

Sabah Tea Garden is a great place to get close to nature activities, lush greens, coupled with amazing views of Mt Kinabalu,

Nestled in the lush tropical wilderness of Mt Kinabalu on 2,509ha and at 692m above sea level, Sabah Tea Garden’s cool and refreshing atmosphere renders a perfect get away for the weekend or a holiday.


The tea house

Tea House is where cups of chilled tea served.


Tea Pancakes. Made using tea leaf extract, flour and eggs then served with honey.
 

Sabah Tea Longhouse

The Sabah Tea Longhouse with an authentic “tribal” experience. Built  1.5m above ground, this longhouse has 10 rooms . Each room sleeps two to three adults.

Sabah Tea Garden also offers chalets with three rooms, a living room, kitchen and bathroom.

Organic tea

Sabah Tea Garden is the only organic tea plantation in Malaysia and one of few in the world to produce its own special blend of tea.

Organic tea  is grown without pesticides or fertilizers, and it is certified organic by SKAL International B. V. of the Netherlands, an independent international non-profit organization that performs inspections and grants certification for organic production methods.


A tea adventure

The Sapaon Recreational Area is where visitors can take part in obstacle races, swim in cool mountain waters and picnic at the waterfall.

Jungle trekking up Kamunsu Hill

Various rainforest flora and fauna along the way.

When you reached the peak, was well worth the effort — the view from the top (2,271m above sea level) was mesmerizing and everything looked tiny.

Those less physically inclined can also opt to do a night walk among the tea bushes after dinner, but prior booking is recommended.

Catch a view of Mt Kinabalu

Woke up early to see a clear view of Mt Kinabalu. The mist surrounding the highlands was breathtaking and gave the scene a surreal touch.


Visit the tea factory

Visit the tea manufacturing factory. This is where selected tea leaves are dried, fermented, sorted and packed into tea bags. To preserve its freshness, all tea leaves that come in are processed within 24 hours.
