Ulu Telupid Forest Reserve is a protected forest reserve in Tongod District of Sandakan Division, Sabah, Malaysia. First established in 1972, it was designated as a Class 1 Protection Forest by the Sabah Forestry Department in 1984. Its area is 6,460 hectares (64.6 km2), down from its former size of 7,508 hectares (75.08 km2). Prior to being established as a forest reserve, the area was used for logging and palm oil plantations. The reserve is mostly mountainous, consisting mainly of mixed dipterocarp forest. The land surrounding the reserve includes a town, oil palm plantations, rubber plantations, and rice paddies. It is threatened by fires and illegal logging. In some areas agricultural activities have encroached into the protected area. Since 2000 there has been a net loss of just under 2% of the reserve's forested area. There is a small level of ecotourism activity in the reserve, consisting of guided tours from a nearby village, which provides livelihood alternatives to logging and poaching.
