Batu Punggul

Batu Punggul is a jungle-topped limestone outcrop riddled with caves, towering nearly 200m above Sapulut River. This is deep in Murut country and the stone formation was one of the several sites sacred to these people. Batu Punggul and the adjacent Batu Tinahas are traditionally believed to be Longhouses that gradually transformed into stone.
