Crocker Range is the largest park in Sabah. The CROCKER RANGE is bisected by the PADAS Gorge, through which swirls the mighty Padas River. The CROCKER RANGE provides a vital water catchment area for communities in the foothills and plains to both the west coast and interior. Previously, there was no road from the interior to the coastal town but only with bridle paths crisscrossing the hinterlands. These bridle paths took the villagers down to the coastal town, bartering for salt, matches and kerosene. These paths have since been known as SALT TRAIL.
