About Balung River
Balung River Eco Resort, owned and run by Sabah’s former Chief Minister Datuk Harris Salleh.
The resort about 15 to 20 minutes away along a gravel path from the main road. But the bumpy ride is worth it as the views are truly magnificent.
In short, it is a different world out there. Surrounded by so much greenery – both forest and plantation – the resort offers 73 chalet-type rooms for those seeking solitude and peace.
Here, the sun sets about 6.30pm and rises at about 5.30am. Mobile phone coverage is poor and you can only find one television set in the reception area. Electricity is available only from dusk till dawn.
Nobody minds should you walk in for dinner or breakfast in scruffy shorts and tee-shirts.
If you need company, seek out the extremely knowledgeable resort and plantation general manager K. Arunagiri Nathan and his efficient staff who will take you on tours to the plantation and fruit farms.
Arunagiri will painstakingly explain every plant, fruit and herb that grows here. The eight-year-old resort is nestled in a large plantation that grows coffee, oil palm, cocoa, teak, misai kuching (said to be a blood purifier and good for treating diabetes and gout) cardamom, cinnamon, lemon grass and dukong.
Arunagiri says tourists usually spend their time jungle trekking, swimming or walking around the resort.
The resort also produces palm sugar and syrup which are exported to Japan. “The syrup, similar to maple syrup, can be eaten with pancakes, pudding and bread. Tourists who come here simply love the syrup which we sell for RM10 a bottle,” says Arunagiri.
