ROCK CLIMBING

Since 2002, when Sharin and Man were the first persons ever to scale the dragon’s horns, rock-climbing has become a popular activity on Tioman, drawing adventurers and climbers of all levels.

Advanced climbers can attempt the full five-day climb to the top of the twin peaks, sleeping in hammocks at dizzying heights along the way. Only a few climbers have managed to reach the top to date.

With such a challenging site, it is no wonder that international competitions and women’s record-breaking events have been hosted here recently.

Tioman’s rock climbing is not only for experts: local guides that organise climbing expeditions are happy to show beginners the ropes at any of the other sites or at the base of the twin peaks.

However, for a real adventure in expert hands, join in for one of the Dragon Peak adventures offered by Petit Climbing Centre (http://arinpetit.blogspot.com/) – operated by Sharin Hashim himself.  Three day, two night packages are RM 1 200 per person and include accommodation, food, climbing equipments, climbing guides, porters and boat transfer to and from Mersing jetty. This is a once in a lifetime adventure and for this site, there is no better guide. Contact us to make a reservation.
