The heritage walk take you up to the English tea house and Anges Keith house. The stairs are not that much but the hot weather makes it difficult. There is a sign for Sandakan heritage musuem but the place is close. The highlight of this walk is the English Tea house. Good food and refreshing fresh juice.

Walk along the main road and then turn right to Agnes Keith House . Continue walking and you well see a sign for the 100 steps, an easy walk down. The Heritage trail is well signposted

The map was generally easy to follow though we did it backwards and got a bit turned around by St. Micheals. I think the Chinese cemetery and memorial should be added as part of the walk.

Took us less than 2 hours and that included a stop at the Johnson exhibit off the main square and the Chinese memorial, plus stopping for pictures (and getting turned around). Definitely isn't a long walk or terribly hard; I recommend it instead of taking a car.…
