The view from Kiau Gap (Local name: Lumu Lumu) on the road between Kinabalu Park HQ and the Timpohon Gate at the start of the climb to the summit of Kinabalu.
The peak in the middle of the photo is Anak Kinabalu (Child of Kinabalu in Malay). The local Kiau Dusun name is Gunung Nungkok.
Lumu Lumu at around 1,700m asl is probably the most famous scientific collecting site on Kinabalu for both botanical and zoological specimens.
For example the TYPE collection of Ficus endospermifolia was made at Lumu Lumu.
Zoology: The endemic Kinabalu Black Shrew Suncus ater is known only from a single specimen collected at Lumu Lumu.
