#newyearadventure #desafarm #kundasang #sabah Desa Farm is located at Jalan Cinta Mata Mesilou, 89308 Kundasang, Sabah, Malaysia. It offers amazing beautiful scenery on the Kinabalu Mount and cold fresh air like at the mini New Zealand of Malaysia. Desa Milk is very popular in local cow milk industry, which most Sabahans, Sarawakians, and even Malaysians growing up drinking fresh milk from Desa Dairy Farm. The Farm is about 2.5 hour drive from the city of Kota Kinabalu.

Went here for the second times and I'm still in love with this place. This is a very nice place with beautiful view to enjoy the cattle from afar and up close they’re roaming freely within the fenced up meadow. Also one of the few places to see the real size and black and white colored cows in Malaysia! The view with mountain backdrop is marvelous when the sky is clear during good weather. The weather here is so cool with the fresh air. There is also ice-cream made from the fresh milk from the cattle. Do try their gelato, it fits perfectly with the vibe and weather there. However, it is too crowded and rowdy with tourists to enjoy the beautiful scenery. The area is huge with alot of activities such as calf and goat feeding as well as cow milking. The entrance fee is just rm5 per person. Overall, it is reasonably a good place to visit in Kundasang for a short few hours. This place is almost a 3 hours driving from KK. #sabah #kundasang #kinabalu #summervacation #desadairyfarm

Definitely a must place to visit when you come to sabah. Went there with all excitement until we saw a notice saying that the barn is closed due to biosecurity issue.

The location is just beautiful - it looks like Europe and the cool air helps the feeling for sure! The farm itself was pretty standard with the usual professional equipment for milking and cows enjoying the succulent looking grass. We tasted the milk and of course it was really good as one would expect right at the farm. We spent about an hour there. There is a fee to enter the place per person. In the farm, there are few of activities to see and experience yourself such as cow milking, feeding the calf and of course, eating the milk products. Need a lot of walking in the place. At the elevation of 1550+ meter above sea level, the cool air and the views were unforgettable. #besttrip #urbanexplorer
