Introducing Lundu
No relation to Lund in Sweden, this quiet little town sits between the forested bulk of Gunung Gading National Park and the Sungai Kayan. To most travellers it’s simply the transport node for the national park, but people here are friendly and there are far worse places to get stranded.

Lundu has a fish market along the riverfront and a hawker centre at the western end of town. The town centre is a square bounded by old godown, and brightly painted houses line the quiet country lanes. In tribute to the area’s main attraction, there’s an oversized rafflesia monument near the bus station.
The road north out of town leads to the beaches at Pandan (10km) and Siar (8.5km). They’re OK, but are often littered with debris.
