Tawau Hills Park (THP) is a relatively undiscovered natural wonder in Sabah. Located in the Tawau district, it is about an hour's drive from the airport. Gazetted in 1979, the park is managed by Sabah Parks. 


Encompassing 27,972 hectares of protected primary rainforest, Tawau Hills Park is distinguished by its towering giant Dipterocarp trees, which rank among the world’s tallest tropical trees. Its dense canopy and rich biodiversity thrive on fertile volcanic soil, a legacy of the ancient volcanoes that once shaped this landscape.


The park offers a network of exciting trails leading to sulphur springs, cascading waterfalls, mountain peaks, and even one of the world’s tallest recorded tropical trees. Professional guided walks and multi-day expeditions are available for visitors eager to explore its remarkable biodiversity.
