Lambir Hills National Park (GPS: 4.19837, 114.04287) is a national park in the Miri Division of Sarawak. It is about 30 kilometers south of Miri, on the road towards Bintulu. Gazetted on 15 May 1975, the national park covers an area of 6952 hectares on the central section of Lambir Hills.

Lambir Hills National Park has a mixture of dipterocarp forest and kerangas forest. The dipterocarp forest has trees such as kapur, meranti, kempas and selangan batu, while the kerangas or heath forest has shorter trees such as rhu bukit and selunsur bukit as well as pitcher plants, orchids and shrubs that colonise poor soil.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
