Eagle's Nest Skywalk Intro
Officially opening to the public on March 10th, 2024, the Eagle’s Nest Skywalk is a celebration of homegrown talent, a project entirely inspired, designed, and constructed by the skilled hands of Kedah’s locals.
The peaks of Gunung Matchinchang are iconic to the Matchinchang Cambrian Geoforest Park and the second-highest peak on Langkawi (708 m). The Matchinchang Mountain Range consists of Matchinchang Formation sandstone, the oldest rocks in Southeast Asia (550-500 million years). The uniqueness of the Matchinchang landscape is derived from the uplift process of the seafloor, resulting in a gently dipping sedimentary layers, followed by prolonged erosion by rainwater. The prolonged erosion process resulted in ridges with sharp peaks and valleys (hogback).
The sandstone layers at the top of Matchinchang produce a special habitat for sandstone forest dominated by Syzygium attenuatum, Eurycoma longifolia, bamboo climber (Dinochloa malayana), pitcher plants (Nepenthes sanguinea) and Tiny bubble-nest frogs (Raorchestes parvulus). Most of the trees here are stunted, with gnarled stems and waxy leaves as an adaptation to porous soil and poor nutrient conditions.
This landscape that looks as if being chopped, inspired the myth of the fight between two giants, Mat Chinchang and Mat Raya. In the end, Sang Gedembai cursed them into Gunung Matchinchang Mountain and Gunung Raya. The peak of Matchinchang is part of the Matchinchang Cambrian Geoforest Park geotrail and is also the main tourist attraction due to the breathtaking 360° viewpoint that can be accessed via the world’s steepest.
The Eagle’s Nest Skywalk stands at a height of 650 meters above sea level, with a glass route spanning 65 meters in length that exceeds the cliff edge by an additional 38 meters.
