Labuan is a Federal Territory of Malaysia. Its territory includes Labuan Island and six smaller islands, off the coast of the state of Sabah in East Malaysia.

The route starts at the Kumbakarai falls. You cross the river and enter the trail beside the forest officer's check-post. The initial climb is steep and rocky through arid shrub-like vegetation. You soon enter a forest and the route goes through the base of a valley. The trail is clear as it is frequently used by villagers in Vellagavi. After 7km and nearly 1000m of elevation gain, you reach the village of Vellagavi. Villagers are friendly and warm, usually happy to see hikers.

The west coast of Phuket offers stunning views of the Andaman Sea, and beautiful beaches. The route travels from the southernmost tip of Phuket at Promthep Cape to the northernmost point, on Sarasin Bridge which joins the island to the Thai mainland (or reverse). The route follows the coastal road for the majority of the route, also passing along the beach front road through Patong and at Kamala leaves the main road to pass the tsunami memorial to pay respects to the tsunami of 2001 which devastated the west coast of Thailand.
