Activities
what we do
Outward Bound Sabah sits on a beautiful ecologically diverse property consisting of 100 acres of forest and beach land. Our undeveloped land is ideal for orienteering and outdoor leadership activities.
The activities offered are jungle trekking expeditions in the tropical rainforests and kayaking expeditions to mangrove forests along the river or to islands in the South China Sea. Outward Bound Sabah also utilizes many other natural sites such as Sabah Parks.

Kayaking expeditions form an integral part of the programmes at Outward Bound Sabah. They provide the opportunity for participants to unleash their full potential in terms of leadership, skills building, teamwork, and adventure.

Outward Bound Sabah has two high ropes elements that offer climbing and abseiling opportunities. The rock wall on the school’s grounds is a perfect challenge for the beginners to build self-confidence.

Groups sail out in Whaler (a 27 ft, 2 masts sailboat) for the journey to the beautiful islands of the South China Sea.

It is done in the Papar River which has rapids up to Class III in times of high water. Instead of a rubber boat, we use inner tube and bamboo lashed together to form a raft that will be used on this river.
