OK, since someone brought this up, I am going there this Saturday morning.

i believe u went up and came down the same way.. thats why u only took 20 minutes

aiks, taught there the only way.

hahaha... follow us next time..

Bkt Tabur quite nice...can look down alot of things..the hill also nice. can see the river dam...
but beware of the orchard..got plenty of bees...hehehe

lol ><' too sunny up there for me

Tomorrow's my climb there. Starting at 6am hopefully. Just to picture the sunrise.

Looks interesting. Count me in on next climb in the near future. Except if I am busy. If I take the way from Kepong to National Zoo, is the BP station before or after and left/right. Thanks

hornetEJ's not back yet.. so no transport
take a left turn into Tmn Melawati and BP station is after the turn

can u give me direct instruction how to get to the bottom of the hill? from the BP station?
my GF stay nearby there. so i know the area quite well...is it suitable to go in small groups, is it well marked? i mean the trails.

here's a map. hope it helps...

I got bee stung on the way down too. Is there a way to deter the bees? Are insect repellants effective against the bees?

It's been a year since my last climb. Thinking of going up again soon.

Hie~,

Actually i am quite confused. I read that someone said that it took 1/2 hour to get to the top and back. And in the first posting, said it took 3 hours-4hours. Actually got more than 1 trail there izzit? can we get lost?

Normal average fitness and that stop and enjoy view will take like average 3 hour. The trail to the top is quite easy but once you get pass the spiderman cliff(rope on the ridge) the trail toward the malay kampung could be some challege. If u want short cut just make your own way like me.

did you beat any of the bees dead? if u did.. more will come and sting you

the whole complete journey takes 3 hours. its only one way route .. go up from here and get down from another route.

set a date and i bring you guys up la.. this weekend? sunday?

juichuan, I did not beat any of the bees dead, but I think they will die once they sting you.

A fly sheet would be very useful to carry around, especially to areas with bees or hornet (not me ). In the case of bees or hornet attack, get as low to the ground as possible and use the fly sheet to cover up your entire body.

oh.. so hornet is a kind of bee...

Ho ho i got no love for this Bukit already. Guess no more thrill for me

ya..hornetEJ is a bee.

Anyway, I wonder when will be the next climb to Bukit Tabur? JC, fast fast organize.
