Trus Madi, (2,642m) the second highest mountain in Borneo after Kinabalu (4,095 m) has been little explored botanically in comparison to Kinabalu.
The lower slopes are covered in previously logged hill forest now rich in figs. Very large Ficus stupenda figs trees are relatively common and tower above the surrounding forest. Unlike the bare rocky summit of Kinabalu the summit of Trus Madi is covered with dense shrubs including Ficus oleifolia which is easy to find.
Trus Madi is relatively accessible and a climb is easy to arrange.
