Anyone want to join me to Bukit Tabur - East route? Will be going there on the 14th March 2010.

Hi guys. Sorry for the late reply as I am busy with my time table. For first timer I would suggest for the Tabur Hill - West Route first instead of the East as the East will be quite difficult. If anyone free on the weekday, I will be willing to take you around for the hike. Just message me and I will return as soon as possible.

Added on March 15, 2010, 8:45 pmHi Jamie. Good to hear that you are into this hike and I would organize a trip as soon as possible. Weather on the 14th at first does not look good but nothing is impossible. Here are some of the pictures where I took during my trip from the Tabur East. Just drop me a mail and I will be free this weekday if you are able to get a rest day except for Thursday as I am heading for the Hot Air Balloon event held at Putrajaya. I would not advice to hike on weekend because the number of crowd might slow down the hike progress.

Weekend it is like seeing a traffic jam at the hill peak instead at the road we are driving "D. And weekend more likely I will be busy as I got other mountains to hike.

Which Tabur Hill you wish to go? I got nothing to do tomorrow so maybe I can show you the way.

Too bad I got another hike this Sunday. Enjoy your trip to Tabur East. Just went up today and the view still nice.

Which area you want to climb?

You might consider a few. Gunung Nuang, Gunung Chenuang, Gunung Lepo, Gunung Lubuk Tedung, Gunung Tok Wan, and Gunung Kutu. If want to go further south to Seremban you can try Gunung Datuk and Gunung Angsi.

Gunung Nuang is located at Hulu Langat region and there are three ways to go up this mountain. People will normally use the Pangsson way or travel a bit further up to Janda Baik. If to say it as difficult, it would not be that difficult until you reach Kem Pacat. There are two camping site at Gunung Nuang - Kem Lolo and Kem Pacat. Kem Lolo have small falls where you can enjoy a chill time on your way down to Pangsson and Kem Pacat used to be a leech camp but seldom encounter them. What I do not like about Kem Pacat is the buzzing bees. They would not sting, just that they are attracted to your sweat. Give it a try and experience the night at Gunung Nuang.

Do you know the starting point from Janda Baik? this is the first time i hear climbers can go up via Janda Baik and would like to give it a try..

It is hard for me to explain the starting point from Janda Baik as we need to pass by a orang asli village and nearby there is a stream. Not an easy track as we will face same terrain like what we faced at Hulu Langat. Along the path you will encounter lots of leeches and scorpion. If at a non-stop trekking pace, you can reach the peak around 3.5 hours. When you reach at the peak from Hulu Langat. you will realize that there's a path at the other end and that's the route from Janda Baik. If we are coming from Hulu Langat, the beirut (metal tent) will be on our right and the path from Janda Baik will be at the left corner.

Saturday what time? And which Tabur you are referring to?

If they have 2 experienced hikers then you should be alright.

For me, all 3 Taburs' are easy. If your friend refer you to West, please take extra caution. Lots of accident occurred here.

Surprise to see this thread still alive since most of us chat at others. Still dare to head to West? Last week only got incident.

Message @Seriousdealerboy. He wanted to go.
