15-Feb-2010 Nice day ~ place ~ people ~ Nice hike @ Gunung Datuk
Gunung Datuk (800m) located at Rembau, Negeri Sembilan. today 15 Feb 2011, lead by our experienced hiker to go hiking at Gunung Datuk and it's known as easy trail for everyone (even a pregnant women can do it).
The trail is not that steep and hard, it takes about 3-4hours to complete and return back to the base for normal fitness person.In fact there are many people running down the hill, so you may imagine how easy is the trail. We're lucky today as weather is good and windy, along the trail you might hear the wind blowing sound. YES it's very strong wind that day and just like listening to the sound of sea wave in the jungle. so nice!

it's really a pleasant hike and finally reached up the peak and there is a camping site and big boulders there, it's not completed yet! climb up the boulder on the metal ladder that is tightened to the rock with rope, wondering is someone doing regular checking on the rope condition.otherwise it will be very dangerous to just rely on the ladder. again in my experiences, climb up is always easier than down climb! be double tripple carefull every step down on the ladder, but nothing stop me climbing up and that it's!! no regret! amazing trip!
